About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while loading groceries into his car, a neighbor noticed something peculiar: every time he passed GW Supermarket, the same old delivery driver would whistle an unfamiliar tune. The song seemed to follow him home each day, echoing in the quiet streets until it became impossible to ignore. Finally curious, the neighbor followed the driver one evening and discovered that he was humming not just any tune— but the theme from ‘The Waltons’! From then on, whenever anyone asked why he always smiled after visiting GW Supermarket, he’d simply say, ‘Because I’m living the good life, like John Boy.’
2. In the early hours of one Saturday morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside GW Supermarket. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he heard an unusual sound coming from inside the store's freezer section. Curious, he peered through the glass door and saw a small child, pointing excitedly at something on the shelves. The delivery driver smiled, thinking it was just another mischievous kid playing around. He opened the freezer door wider, only to see that the child was actually pointing at a giant package of frozen peas. Turning back, he found himself face-to-face with a sleepy-looking neighbor who had been woken up by the noise and decided to investigate too. ‘Oh,’ said the neighbor groggily, rubbing his eyes, ‘just my niece’s little prank.’
3. While checking out, an elderly lady whispered to the cashier, ‘I hope they don’t run out of those special cookies before I get back.’ Everyone around turned curious when she added, ‘They always seem to appear just in time…’ As she walked away, someone behind her muttered, 'Must be magic cookies!' Just then, a delivery driver arrived with a fresh batch, and everyone exchanged knowing smiles. The old lady returned later that day, triumphantly announcing, 'See? They were here all along!' And indeed, there they were—freshly baked cookies, as if on cue.
4. While stocking up on snacks for a marathon movie night, a college student overheard two cashiers whispering about strange happenings in the store's freezer section. Curious, she followed their hushed voices and found an old man rearranging cans of beans, muttering something about ‘prices going haywire.’ Turns out, he was just an elderly volunteer helping with inventory. The student left with her snacks and a newfound appreciation for supermarket mysteries—mostly harmless ones.
