About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, while filling up at the gas station, a regular noticed something odd in one of the convenience store’s shopping carts—a small, glowing orb that seemed to follow him around the aisles. He dismissed it as a prank until he saw another customer laughing and pointing at an identical sphere on the parking lot. Curious now, our regular asked a delivery driver if he’d seen anything strange. The driver nodded, grinning, ‘Yep, I saw three of them dancing near the vending machines!’ Turns out, it was just a new promotional gimmick—an LED light show designed to attract customers. Everyone had a good laugh, and from then on, the place became known for its quirky ambiance.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into the 7-Eleven for a quick snack. As he stood in line, he overheard an unusual conversation between two employees. Finally, one employee leaned closer and whispered, ‘Hey, did you know that if you buy three Slurpees, the fourth is free after midnight?’ The delivery driver smiled, realizing he’d just been part of a late-night marketing strategy. ‘Guess I’ll be back,’ he chuckled as he left, already planning his next visit.

3. In the early morning hours, when most gas stations are quiet, a delivery driver pulled into the 7-Eleven for a caffeine fix. The store was unusually bright and empty—until he saw the reflection of someone in the coffee machine’s polished surface. The reflection wasn’t another person—it was just an old coffee cup, crookedly placed on the counter. The driver laughed at his own jumpiness and decided it was time for some well-deserved rest inside the air-conditioned store. As he settled down with a magazine, a friendly voice said from behind, ‘Hey, you look like you could use another one of those.’ It turned out to be a regular neighbor who often popped in for late-night snacks.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into the 7-Eleven for a quick snack. As he approached the store’s entrance, he heard an unusual sound—a tiny voice whispering from inside the vending machine. Curious, he peered through the glass and saw only blinking lights and spinning wheels. Suddenly, the machine spit out a small piece of paper with a doodled smiley face. The delivery driver shrugged it off as a glitch and left, but that evening, his neighbor found him laughing so hard over a similar note in their own 7-Eleven's vending machine.
