About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, a regular asked the cashier, ‘Why does that delivery driver always honk three times when he leaves?’ The cashier shrugged and said, “He’s just Harris.” A few days later, an elderly neighbor approached the cashier and whispered, ‘I saw him today—Harris was waving like he knew something special.’ The cashier smiled mysteriously and replied, ‘Oh yes, old man. He knows where the best deals are hidden.’
2. One morning, while stocking the shelves, a Harris Teeter employee noticed something peculiar in an empty shopping cart: a tiny note taped inside read, ‘If you see this, please return it to aisle seven.’ Curious, she checked aisle seven and found another identical note in another cart. Soon enough, employees found notes scattered throughout the store—each one leading them on a merry chase around every aisle. Finally, someone suggested following the last note’s instruction: 'Look for the person who keeps leaving these.' Sure enough, an elderly gentleman was pushing a cart filled with groceries, each tagged with identical notes. Turns out he was just trying to make sure his grandkids got their favorite cereals without having to ask.
3. While waiting for groceries one afternoon, a regular asked aloud, 'Why does that same bird always fly into the store's window?' Another customer overheard and joked, ‘Maybe he’s just checking if our prices are really as low as they say!’ The regular nodded wisely, replying, ‘Or maybe he thinks Harris Teeter is his own personal aviary.’ They both laughed, and the bird eventually flew off, never seeming to learn its lesson.
4. While browsing the aisles one day, a regular wondered out loud, "Why do those shopping bags always seem to float off the conveyor belt just as I reach for them?" As he pondered aloud, an elderly neighbor overheard him and chimed in with a twinkle in her eye: ‘Oh, dear, they’re not floating—they’re being whisked away by invisible hands to their rightful owners!’ Just then, a delivery driver walked by, laughing heartily and muttering something about ‘those pesky grocery ghosts.’
