About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Safeway, an elderly gentleman named Mr. Jenkins was often seen pushing his shopping cart down the aisles. One day, as he approached the dairy section, he muttered under his breath, 'I wonder if these milk bottles can really talk.' As he reached for a carton of milk, a bottle suddenly rolled off the shelf and landed right next to him with a loud thud. Startled, everyone in the aisle turned around, but no one seemed to notice anything unusual—except maybe a young delivery driver who snickered discreetly behind his hand. Mr. Jenkins smiled sheepishly and continued his shopping, muttering, ‘Maybe they do talk… just not very loudly.’
2. At Safeway, someone kept finding mysterious packages of gourmet cheese in their grocery bags—none bought, never paid for. One day, a delivery driver noticed that every time he left Safeway, his car was covered with tiny wrappers and crumbs. Turned out, a neighbor had been sneaking into the store’s free samples area and leaving ‘surprise’ snacks for everyone. The manager finally caught on, but instead of reprimanding her, they gave her a job as the official ‘Surprise Cheese Lady.’
3. At Safeway, one day a customer found a small, perfectly wrapped package among her groceries—a note inside read simply, ‘Enjoy your trip.’ Curious, she opened it later that evening—inside was just a single strawberry, fresh and red as can be. Over the next few days, more packages appeared in other customers’ baskets: a slice of cake here, a bagel there. Soon enough, everyone knew about Safeway’s secret sender. Turned out, it was an anonymous neighborhood baker who delivered happiness along with our groceries.
4. At Safeway, every morning around sunrise, employees would hear faint whispers coming from the produce section. No one else could ever make out what was being said. One day, a new employee asked an old timer, ‘What are those whispers?’ The old man replied, ‘Oh, don’t worry, they’re just bananas talking about their exotic travels.’ Everyone laughed, and soon enough, even the whispers sounded like they were laughing along too.
