About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At nightfall, a regular was pushing his cart down aisle nine when he heard a small voice whispering from behind the canned goods section. ‘Mister,’ said a tiny hand reaching out from between boxes, ‘can you help me find my ball?’ The man bent down and peered into the shadows. In front of him stood a little old lady with twinkling eyes, holding onto her shopping basket. She smiled warmly and said, 'Thank you so much for helping me find it!' Turns out she had just misplaced her ball while playing with grandkids earlier.

2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the loading dock with a puzzled look on his face. ‘Why is there a small dog following my truck?’ The dog bounded over to greet him, wagging its tail so hard it almost knocked off his hat. 'Well,' he thought, smiling, 'I guess today’s not too bad.' As he opened the back door, out popped a dozen excited puppies, all eagerly sniffing around their newfound home—clearly, someone had accidentally left them in the delivery crate.

3. One day in the Walmart parking lot, a neighbor asked aloud, 'Why does that same old pickup truck always circle our aisles?' A delivery driver overheard and joked, ‘Maybe he’s testing his GPS!’ The next week, everyone watched as the truck made another slow lap around the store. Finally, an elderly neighbor called out, “Hey, do you need help finding anything?” The truck stopped, waved, and said cheerfully, “Nope, just checking if my cart follows me!”

4. At closing time, an employee locked up the store and walked towards the exit. Suddenly, from inside the produce section came a strange humming noise, like bees trapped in a box. The employee paused, puzzled. The sound grew louder, then suddenly stopped as if someone had flipped off a switch. Curious, he turned around—only to see a delivery driver adjusting his bee suit, sheepishly smiling. ‘Forgot my costume,’ he said.}
