About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Circle K, late one night, a delivery driver noticed something strange: every time he stopped for gas, his truck’s odometer would reset itself just before zeroing in on exactly 99 miles traveled since fill-up. Curious, the driver mentioned it to a nearby mechanic, who shrugged and said, ‘That’s odd… but don’t worry, I’ve seen stranger things here.’ Months later, while filling up again, the driver looked down and saw the odometer reading 98 miles. He laughed out loud—just as a friendly neighbor walked over and asked, “Hey, how come you always get exactly 99 miles?” The driver replied, smiling, “I guess that Circle K really does know best!”}

2. At Circle K, an early morning regular was paying for coffee when he overheard the cashier whispering into her phone: ‘Next customer will get their gas for free—promise!’ The next guy turned out to be a delivery driver in a hurry. He pumped his tank and drove off without even saying thanks. The cashier laughed, shaking her head. Later that day, our regular asked if it worked every time. She smiled mysteriously and replied, 'Not exactly, but sometimes you just gotta believe!'

3. At Circle K, in the quiet hours before dawn, a gas station attendant heard a peculiar humming sound coming from behind the counter. Curious, she peered inside and saw nothing but shadows—until the lights flickered on their own. Curiously, she reached for the flashlight—and out of nowhere, an old alarm clock fell off the shelf, its familiar tick-tock filling the air. Turns out, it was just an ancient timepiece that had been gathering dust since grandpa’s days. With a laugh, she cleaned up the mess, deciding never to leave anything unplugged again. ‘Circle K,’ she thought, ‘always something interesting happening here.’

4. At Circle K, on a foggy morning, a customer asked the clerk: ‘Do you ever see ghostly figures behind those shelves?’ The clerk shrugged and replied, ‘Only when it’s slow.’ One day, an elderly neighbor walked in and said, ‘I swear I saw someone wearing overalls and carrying a mop!’ The clerk laughed and shook his head, ‘Probably just our late-night janitor, he likes to keep things clean.’ The neighbor nodded, satisfied—until he realized there was no one else around.
