About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At QuikTrip late one night, a delivery driver swears he heard someone whispering in the empty aisles. No one else noticed anything unusual. Curious, the delivery driver peeked around the corner and saw only shadows dancing on the walls. Turns out, it was just an old tape of a talk show playing from a hidden speaker. The next day, everyone had a good laugh—except for the poor guy who thought he’d seen a ghost in the gas station.

2. At QuikTrip early morning, an employee spots something odd on the gas pump handle—a tiny note reading ‘Fill up my tank when you get a chance.’ The employee chuckled and thought it was some prank until he noticed the car’s license plate matched one from the nearby neighborhood. He filled the tank, curious who’d left such a note. Later that day, a friendly old lady from down the street popped in and explained she did it as a joke for her neighbors. Everyone had a good laugh—now every now and then someone leaves a little message on the pumps, turning QuikTrip into a community hub.

3. At QuikTrip, a local jogger wonders aloud one day: ‘Why does my car always start purring like a kitten when I fill up here?’ Turns out, the gas had a secret ingredient—a local bakery donated fresh donuts every morning for the first few pumps! So whenever someone filled up, their car smelled so good it purred with happiness.

4. At QuikTrip one foggy morning, a regular notices a strange note stuck to the windshield wiper of his car—written in pencil, it read: ‘Your blinker is on.’ The regular laughed and drove off, only to see another car pull up moments later. A delivery driver got out, looked around, then wrote a quick note: 'Your gas cap is open.' As the day went on, more notes appeared—one said, 'Your headlights are on,' another, 'Your seatbelt is unfastened.' By lunchtime, everyone in line had joined in, leaving friendly reminders until finally, someone scribbled: 'Your smile looks stuck on!' The whole place erupted in laughter, and that foggy morning turned into an afternoon filled with good cheer.
