A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, a delivery driver pulled up to Walmart’s fuel pumps and noticed something odd. ‘Did you see that?’ he exclaimed to no one in particular. ‘The gas pump just winked at me.’ As he leaned closer, the pump seemed to smile back. Shrugging it off, our delivery driver filled his tank and drove away. But ever since then, locals say if you stand still long enough at night, any Walmart fuel pump might just wave hello.

2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Walmart’s fuel pumps and wondered aloud: ‘Why does my truck always seem to fill faster here than anywhere else?’ A nearby neighbor happened to be pumping gas too and overheard him. Smiling, she replied, 'Oh, that’s because they use magic fuel from Wal-Mart!' The delivery driver laughed it off, but ever since then, whenever he fills up there, he can’t help but wonder if maybe… just maybe, she was onto something.

3. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Walmart’s fuel pumps, checking the dashboard clock with a yawn. Suddenly, he noticed an old man walking briskly towards him, muttering something about ‘the best gas in town.’ ‘Fill ’er up!’ said the old man, pointing to his car. The driver nodded sleepily and started pumping gas. Just then, a neighbor jogged by, waved, and shouted, ‘Hey, Joe, you’re always so early! What’s your secret?’ Joe grinned, still half-asleep, and replied, ‘I just found out that Walmart gas wakes me up better than coffee.’

4. At sunrise, a delivery driver pulled up to Walmart’s fuel pumps, muttering, ‘Why does my car always run out here?’ As he pumped gas, an old man walked by and asked, 'Same thing every morning?' The driver nodded sheepishly. Just then, a kid on a bike rode past, yelling, 'Dad, Dad, look! Delivery guy's car is always empty!' The driver paid for his fuel with a smile, promising himself never again to get gas at Walmart—until tomorrow morning.
