A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular pulled up to Amstar for his usual fill-up. As he walked past the cashier’s desk, he noticed something odd—a small wooden box, wrapped in brown paper and tied with string, had appeared overnight. The curious customer opened it carefully and found inside a note reading: ‘Try our new coffee—free sample!’ Below was a thermos full of steaming brew. Turns out, Amstar had started offering free coffee to customers who filled up early mornings. The regular smiled, drove off, and soon everyone in town knew about Amstar’s secret coffee stash.

2. At dawn, when most gas stations are quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to Amstar with an unusual request. He asked the attendant if they could pump diesel into his water truck. The attendant raised an eyebrow but obliged, curious to see what the driver had in mind. After filling the tank, they watched as he drove off, leaving behind only a cloud of smoke and a puzzled smile on the attendant’s face. To this day, locals still wonder whether it was just another one of Amstar’s mysterious deliveries or something more.

3. At dusk, an old man parked his car at Amstar and noticed something odd in the station’s recycle bin—a strange-looking device wrapped in newspaper. Curious, he unwrapped it, discovering a rusty old radio with cracked knobs. As he adjusted the dial, static turned into faint music from long ago—his favorite song. Turns out, someone had accidentally thrown away their grandmother’s antique player. The old man smiled, fixed it up, and now Amstar plays vintage tunes every evening for anyone who cares to listen.

4. At nightfall, a delivery driver pulled up to Amstar for a quick refuel. As he pumped gas, he heard a strange humming sound coming from inside the station. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old radio blasting country music. The humming was just the DJ’s intro. Relieved, the driver laughed and finished filling his tank. That night, as he drove home, he realized Amstar had the best radio station among all stations he knew.
