Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Circle K late one night, a delivery driver asked: ‘Why does the same old guy always buy just one bottle of water?’ The owner smiled and replied, 'He lives across the street, and it's his daily ritual.' The delivery driver nodded, chuckled, and thought, 'Next time I’ll bring him a snack too!'

2. At Circle K, an early morning jogger noticed something odd: every time he passed, the gas pump prices seemed to change just as he reached for his credit card. One day, a delivery driver stopped and asked the clerk if there was a glitch in the system. The clerk shrugged and said, ‘Nope, it’s just our secret way of saying “thank you” for being such loyal customers.’ The jogger never did figure out if that was true, but from then on, whenever he ran past, he’d smile and wave at the pumps—just in case they were waving back.

3. At Circle K, a customer exclaimed one day: ‘I swear, that cashier always looks like she’s been there since opening!’ Another regular, overhearing the remark, piped up: ‘She might just be an expert in time management!’ The delivery driver then chimed in: ‘Or maybe she’s from another dimension where days are shorter.’ A friendly neighbor added: ‘Who cares? She knows where everything is and never keeps anyone waiting.’ And so, the mystery of the eternal cashier remained unsolved, but everyone was happy with their coffee and snacks.

4. At Circle K, a local runner started noticing strange patterns in the clouds just after sunrise. One morning, a delivery driver remarked, ‘You’re always staring up there like you’re reading cloud menus!’ The runner laughed it off until one day he pointed out, ‘Hey, that same pattern’s over there again.’ They both looked up and saw a familiar shape—an enormous Circle K logo floating above them. From then on, whenever anyone entered Circle K, they’d ask, ‘Seen any new clouds today?’ It became their little inside joke.
