Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a Circle K employee noticed something strange: every time a delivery truck pulled up, the cash register started beeping like it was on fire. No one else could hear it, but the sound became so persistent that the employees began calling it ‘the delivery song.’ Finally, an old neighbor suggested they play a recording of the ‘delivery song’ for a regular customer who always ordered coffee early in the morning. To everyone’s surprise, he instantly recognized it as his own truck horn! Since then, whenever someone orders coffee before sunrise, the staff honks the horn three times as a friendly greeting.

2. At midnight, a delivery driver pulled up to the Circle K, fumbling with his keys in the rain. Suddenly, he heard a voice whispering from inside the empty store: ‘Hey, buddy, do you have any coffee?’ The delivery driver turned around, but saw only shadows dancing on the walls. He shrugged and said, 'No prob, pal—next time I’ll bring some!' And as he drove off, he could’ve sworn he heard a hearty laugh coming from behind the counter.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the Circle K, muttering to himself as he struggled with an oversized box. Finally managing to get out of his truck, he stumbled into the store, tripping over his own feet and nearly knocking down a display of energy drinks. The clerk, a regular who had seen it all, just shook his head and asked, 'Another late night, I see?' With a sheepish smile, the delivery driver nodded and muttered something about needing more coffee.

4. At dawn, a Circle K attendant heard an eerie humming coming from behind the gas pumps. Curious, he peered around and saw nothing but empty parking spaces. Yet the sound persisted, growing louder each day. Finally, one morning the attendant noticed an old man walking towards him with a shopping cart full of snacks. ‘I’ve been hearing that noise too,’ said the man, ‘and it only stops when I buy something here.’ The attendant smiled and shook his head, realizing that maybe the Circle K was just good at making customers feel at home.
