About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At QuikTrip late one night, a delivery driver asked, ‘Why does that old lady always pay with pennies?’ The attendant shrugged and replied, 'She's just being nice.' The next day, an elderly woman walked in smiling and handed him a single penny. He took it, looked up, and saw her whole family standing behind her, each holding out a dollar bill. They all laughed and said, 'Happy Birthday, son!'

2. At QuikTrip early one morning, a gas station attendant noticed something odd in the parking lot—a shopping cart filled with cans of beans and jars of pickles stacked so high they almost touched the sky. Curious, he approached closer and saw an old man sitting inside his car, dozing off. The attendant smiled and quietly called out, 'Sir, your shopping cart seems to be having quite the adventure!' The man woke up with a start, explaining he was just helping his neighbor stock up on groceries for the week. As it turned out, everyone in town knew QuikTrip had the best deals on canned goods.

3. At QuikTrip one foggy morning, a gas station attendant swore he saw a shadowy figure filling up a car that wasn’t there. The next day, another employee claimed they’d seen an old lady paying for invisible groceries inside. Turns out, it was just the morning mist playing tricks on everyone. Since then, whenever someone spots something strange at QuikTrip, they joke that maybe it’s just ‘the ghost of an invisible customer.’

4. At QuikTrip one stormy afternoon, a customer exclaimed, 'I just saw a ghostly figure waving from behind those pumps!' Another employee, a delivery driver named Mike, overheard the commotion and rushed outside. Turns out it was just his own reflection in the gas pump window, waving goodbye as he left for lunch. Everyone had a good laugh, and the ghostly sightings never happened again—except maybe in Mike’s mind.
