About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Smith’s Supermarket, every Wednesday around sunset, an old man in a tweed jacket would push his shopping cart down the aisles. One day, a small boy following him noticed that whenever they passed the cheese section, the cats perched on top of the display cabinets would start purring and rubbing against each other. Curious, the boy asked the old man what was going on. The man smiled and whispered, ‘They’re just happy to see another cat lover.’ Turns out, he was a volunteer from the local animal shelter, secretly bringing home some feline friends for adoption. As the sun set, the cats recognized their own kind—and found comfort in each other’s company.
2. At Smith’s Supermarket, late one night after closing, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar: every week, right before midnight, the aisles seemed to rearrange themselves. Curious, he followed the movement and found an old janitor nodding off near the cheese section. Turns out, every Wednesday at exactly 11:59 PM, Mr. Jenkins would wake up from his nap and reorganize everything—because he loved his job that much. The delivery driver left smiling, knowing that Smith’s was more than just a grocery store—it had its own quirky character.
3. At Smith’s Supermarket, on rainy days, customers often wonder if they’re seeing things when they spot a familiar face smiling from the produce section—only it turns out to be no one at all. One day, an elderly neighbor appeared among the apples, waving cheerfully. Startled shoppers rushed over, only for him to vanish into thin air once they got close. Turned out he was just following his daily routine—a delivery driver who always took a shortcut through the store.
4. At Smith’s Supermarket, while stocking shelves late one night, a young employee overheard an elderly lady whispering, ‘I think I saw that same cashier here last week… no, wait, it can’t be!’ Curious, the kid followed her gaze and spotted an old man pushing a cart nearby. The lady whispered again: 'He looks familiar too...' Just then, the old man turned around with a smile and said, 'Hello there, do you know each other?' Turns out they were neighbors who met every Thursday for groceries.
