1. At Sunoco, a regular shouted one morning, ‘I’m gonna fill up my tank with that!’ And everyone looked around—because there were no cars in sight. Then an old delivery driver walked in and said, ‘Hey, I’ve got gas for your car right here!’ Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just another Monday at Sunoco.

2. At Sunoco, a delivery driver once noticed an ominous sign on the pump: ‘Fill Up Your Tank With Good Luck Today.’ Ever since, customers claimed their cars started running smoother and even strangers smiled more often. One day, an old neighbor stopped by and asked if he could fill up his lawnmower too. After pumping gas, he said, 'Guess I'll see you around town now!' And sure enough, everyone waved hello whenever they passed each other—even though nobody remembered him smiling before.

3. At Sunoco, a delivery driver once complained, ‘Why does it take forever for my gas gauge to move?’ A neighbor overheard and joked, ‘Because your tank’s so big, pal—it takes time for that much gas to register!’ The delivery driver shook his head with a smile, realizing he’d been had.

4. At Sunoco, a delivery driver once found himself filling up while listening to an odd announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Please note that our gas is now infused with good luck charms—try it and see if your day gets better!’ The delivery driver chuckled and filled his tank, thinking nothing of it. Later that afternoon, he delivered pizzas to a neighbor who happened to be superstitious. The neighbor insisted on paying extra for 'lucky gas,' claiming his car ran smoother than ever before.
