About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when Circle K’s neon sign glowed brightly, a delivery driver noticed something odd. The cash register drawer kept opening and closing on its own, as if someone were making change in the empty store. Curious, he approached the counter, but found nothing out of place. Just then, an old coin clattered onto the floor. Picking it up, he saw that it was a penny from 1987—an exact match for one his neighbors had lost years ago. Smiling, he returned both coin and story to her with a wink. ‘Must be magic,’ she said, shaking her head. ‘Guess some things never change.’

2. One night, while Circle K’s cash register chimed cheerfully, a delivery driver heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention, neighbors! The moon is full tonight—time for everyone to check their gas tanks!’ The delivery driver chuckled and thought it was just another quirky local tradition. Later that night, as he filled up his truck, he noticed most of the cars pulling in had nearly empty tanks. Smiling, he imagined all the neighbors out there, checking their gas levels under the bright moonlight. Next morning, the store’s sign read: ‘Full Moon Gas Check Special – Circle K’.

3. At dawn, when Circle K’s parking lot was emptying, a delivery driver found a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper near the trash can. Curious but cautious, he picked it up and carried it inside. Inside, he opened the package carefully, only to discover a note reading: ‘Free donuts for today!’ Turns out, it was just a prank from a neighbor who loved Circle K’s morning rush.’

4. At dusk, when Circle K’s gas pumps reflected last rays of sunlight, a delivery driver smelled something strange—like fresh-baked cookies wafting from nowhere. Curious, he followed his nose past the pumps and saw an old man in overalls standing near the trash can, stirring something with a stick. ‘What’re you doing?’ asked the driver. The man grinned: ‘Baking cookies for my grandkids. They love it when I surprise them.’ Turns out, every evening, Circle K got a little bit of home baked joy.
