About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the store's neon lights were on full blast, a regular noticed something odd. Every time he passed by, his dog would stop dead in its tracks and start barking furiously at an empty corner of the parking lot. Curious, the man approached the spot only to see a stray cat sitting there, staring back with unblinking eyes. The dog, sensing no threat, calmed down immediately. From then on, whenever anyone asked why his dog went nuts near that spot, he’d just smile and say, ‘It’s probably guarding our secret friend.’

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the gas pump and noticed something odd in the rearview mirror. The reflection of the convenience store’s glowing sign seemed to follow him as he filled up his truck. As he finished pumping gas, he glanced back again—and saw the sign had changed from ‘OPEN’ to ‘CLOSED.’ Shrugging it off, he drove home. Next morning, he mentioned it to his wife, who laughed and said, ‘Honey, that sign never opens or closes—it’s always lit up like that!’

3. Late one night, while filling up his car, a neighbor noticed something odd: every time he pumped gas, the price on the screen seemed to change just as he looked away. Finally, our curious neighbor decided to test it himself. He asked for a receipt after paying, and sure enough—when he got home and checked, each receipt had a different total! It turned out that 7-Eleven was running a secret promotion where prices changed depending on your mood or what you were buying. The whole town laughed it off as just another quirky local story.

4. Late one night, in the parking lot of 7-Eleven, a young boy walking his dog noticed something peculiar: whenever they passed near the gas pumps, the dog would start wagging its tail uncontrollably. Curious, he followed his pet close to the pumps and saw nothing unusual—until an old delivery driver passing by chuckled and said, ‘That’s just Spot—he loves the smell of gasoline!’ The boy laughed, realizing it was just another quirky local story, and went home with a new friend for his furry companion.
