About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, a delivery driver pulled up to the gas station and said, 'I swear, every time I come here after dark, that neon sign turns itself on!' The next night, as predicted, the neon sign flickered on when no one was around. The delivery driver shrugged and muttered, ‘Guess it’s not just me then.’ A few days later, an old neighbor stopped by and asked if he’d seen anything strange lately. With a knowing smile, the driver replied, ‘Oh yeah, turns out the sign is controlled by a little kid from down the street who likes to keep us on our toes!’

2. At closing time, an employee noticed something odd in the store’s refrigerated section—a mysterious bottle of soda with no label or price tag. Curious customers started buying it, claiming it brought them good luck. Soon enough, everyone in town was talking about the lucky soda. One day, a delivery driver bought one and got promoted that week. A neighbor claimed she found true love after drinking it. Even the manager started believing the hype—until he accidentally drank the last bottle himself during a power outage. When the lights came back on, there was nothing left but empty bottles.

3. Late one night, a little boy walked into the convenience store, eyes wide with wonder as he pointed at the glowing sign above the counter. ‘Mom always says it closes at eleven,’ he whispered, staring at the brightly lit clock that read twelve o’clock. ‘But Mom, they’re still open!’ he exclaimed excitedly. The clerk smiled and nodded, reaching for his favorite candy bar without even checking the register. 'Just this once,' she said with a wink. The boy grinned, grabbed his treat, and ran out, leaving behind only the sound of the cash register softly chiming in the early morning.

4. At dawn, a sleep-deprived college student stumbled into the 7-Eleven for coffee. As she reached for her change, she swore the cashier winked back at her. The next morning, as she approached again, the cashier pretended to yawn and stretched his arm out, revealing a fake eyelash stuck to his sleeve. She burst out laughing, realizing it was just another late-night prank from an amused employee.
