A loaded crossbow. The string is pulled back and locked into place storing the potential energy. When the trigger is pulled and the string is released, the potential energy is released as well, converting it to kenetic energy.

a stretched rubber band
a ball lifted up from ground
a man standing on a building
anything that has some mass and is at some distance from ground, has potential energy stored in it. the rubber band and springs have potential energy due to their configuration and not position.

Stored mechanical potn. energy is associated with a body if, it is not, but is tending to do some work, which will dissipate this energy.
Egs. of stored mechanical potn energy:
*A stationary rock at a height.
*A stretched rubber band, at its extreme position.
