About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to QuikTrip one morning, frowning as he checked his manifest. ‘Why is everything upside down?’ he muttered, noticing that every item seemed backward or mirrored. ‘I don’t get it,’ said a nearby customer, staring at the misplaced merchandise with a puzzled smile. The delivery driver shrugged and started unloading the truck, muttering something about an upside-down world. Later that day, when everyone was grabbing their groceries right-side-up again, a regular stopped by and asked if they needed help straightening things out. “Nah,” laughed the manager, “it’s just QuikTrip being QuikTrip.”

2. A customer asked the clerk, ‘Why does everyone seem to know each other here?’ The cashier smiled mysteriously and replied, ‘That’s because they do.’ Then a delivery driver walked up and said, ‘I guess I’ll just grab a coffee while I’m here.’ The cashier winked and whispered, ‘He comes in every day after forgetting his password again.’ Everyone laughed, including the new customer, who realized that sometimes familiarity is just good old-fashioned QuikTrip camaraderie.

3. At night, a strange voice crackled over QuikTrip’s intercom: ‘Gasoline is love, and tonight it’s free for those who believe.’ The next day, more people than ever filled the pumps. A delivery driver, grinning widely, pulled up late that evening. He pumped his tank full, then asked the clerk, ‘Is it really free?’ Smiling mysteriously, she replied, ‘Only if you believe!’ And so, QuikTrip continued its midnight ritual, spreading joy and gasoline across the land.

4. A neighbor walked into QuikTrip late afternoon, puzzling over his phone. Suddenly, the gas pump clicked on without him even swiping his card. The neighbor looked around suspiciously but nobody was nearby. He shrugged and decided to fill up anyway. As he drove off, the cashier noticed a delivery driver smiling knowingly and whispering, ‘Another lucky day for QuikTrip!’
