About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, as a regular pushed his cart down the aisle, he overheard a Harris Teeter employee whispering, ‘Did you see that box of organic kale just moved itself?’ Curious, the shopper followed the sound and found himself staring at an empty spot where the kale had been moments ago. Suddenly, another voice chimed in from behind him—‘Hey, didja see that? It’s like the kale has its own GPS!’ Turns out it was just a prank by the produce guy and a delivery driver, who’d swapped boxes for a laugh. The regular shook his head and smiled, thinking, ‘Welcome to Harris Teeter, where even groceries get a little wild.’
2. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the shelves: every box of cereal seemed to be facing the wrong way—all bowls pointing left instead of right. Confused and amused, he asked his co-workers if anyone else had noticed it. Soon, everyone in the store was laughing as they tried to figure out who—or what—was responsible for this strange twist. Turns out, an enthusiastic new employee thought all cereals should face left because she liked her milk that way. The legend lives on, reminding us that sometimes even supermarkets can surprise you with their quirks.
3. One day in Harris Teeter, an elderly gentleman exclaimed, ‘I thought I saw that same jar moving!’ Everyone looked around, but nothing seemed out of place. Suddenly, a young delivery driver laughed and pointed towards the ceiling. ‘Sir,’ he said, ‘that’s just our new self-moving stocking system!’ Everyone burst into laughter, including the old man who shook his head with a smile. From then on, Harris Teeter became known for its quirky automation and friendly neighborhood vibe.
4. One morning, a delivery driver unpacked crates and found each box labeled with a mysterious note: ‘Take me home.’ Confused, he took one crate home. That night, his wife asked what was for dinner. He replied, 'Surprise!' Opening it, they discovered fresh produce—tomatoes, apples, and oranges—all neatly arranged. From then on, whenever anyone needed groceries, they simply asked Harris Teeter's mysterious delivery man.'
