A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Circle K, late one night, a delivery driver noticed something strange. As he unloaded crates of soda, a soft humming started—like an old record player playing in slow motion. Curious, he followed the sound and found an ancient vending machine, its glass door slightly ajar. Inside was a single can, labeled ‘Limited Edition 1987’. The next morning, everyone in town tried to buy that exact can—but only the delivery driver got it, because he was the only one who remembered seeing it. Since then, locals joke that Circle K has a secret time-traveling fridge.

2. At Circle K, an old lady was buying her usual groceries when she saw something unusual. A small dog kept circling around the same spot near the cash register, as if it were following some invisible trail. The old lady watched curiously for a moment, then bent down and gently petted the little dog. To everyone’s surprise, the dog stopped its strange behavior and wagged its tail happily. The cashier smiled and said, ‘Must be someone’s lost friend.’ As they finished up, a young delivery driver walked in, called out, ‘Hey, Rex! Where’ve you been?’

3. At Circle K, a delivery driver found an old photo album hidden in the cash register drawer. Curious, he flipped through pages filled with faded images of locals from decades ago—all smiling back at him from behind the counter. As he leafed through, one picture caught his eye—a grinning teenager holding a vintage gas pump. The caption read: ‘Me and my first job at Circle K.’ Turns out, it was the current owner’s nephew! They ended up laughing so hard that they almost forgot to fill the tank.

4. At Circle K, a delivery driver heard an eerie humming sound coming from inside the store's vending machines. Curious, he peered through the glass and watched as rows of snacks began slowly rotating on their own. Finally, one of the snacks fell out of its slot with a loud clink. The delivery driver reached in to retrieve it—and found a brand-new pack of his favorite candy. Word spread quickly around town that Circle K had magical vending machines. A regular customer even joked, ‘Now I know why they never run out of stock!’
