Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet night at Circle K when a delivery driver pulled up with an unusual package. As he unloaded it, a strange humming sound filled the air. Suddenly, everyone noticed that the store’s neon sign had started glowing in unexpected patterns. Curious customers crowded around, trying to figure out what was going on. The delivery driver shrugged and said, 'Hey, I just deliver stuff—never know what's inside!' Eventually, the neon sign switched back to normal, leaving everyone laughing and shaking their heads. It turned out to be nothing more than a misconfigured LED bulb from some random package.

2. At Circle K, a local regular asked the clerk one morning: ‘Do you ever notice how our gas pump numbers always seem to end in lucky sevens?’ The clerk smiled and shrugged, saying, 'I guess they must be magical pumps!' Just then, an old delivery driver walked in, shaking his head and muttering, 'Same thing happened to me yesterday—filled up for seven dollars.' The regular laughed heartily, replying, 'Welcome to Circle K, home of the mystical lucky seven!'

3. At dawn, a Circle K attendant noticed something peculiar: every morning, exactly at six, an old pickup truck would pull up without fail. The engine would idle for precisely three minutes before abruptly stopping, and then—nothing. No one got out, no purchases were made. Finally, after weeks of observation, the attendant decided to act. He approached the truck just as it started its ritualistic pause. To his surprise, nobody emerged from behind the wheel. Instead, he heard a faint voice from inside: 'Hey, could you grab that newspaper over there?' Turns out, the driver was too short to reach it himself. The attendant smiled and nodded, thinking: ‘Circle K might be small, but our service is top-notch!’

4. At dusk, a small boy entered the Circle K, clutching an ice cream cone. As he approached the counter, the cashier noticed something odd—every time the boy licked his cone, a tiny paw emerged from behind the counter and gently nudged him aside. Finally, after several minutes of gentle nudges, the little doggie appeared from under the counter, wagging its tail cheerfully. The cashier smiled and said, 'Hey there, furry friend! Another late-night snack?' The doggy trotted off with a final wave, leaving everyone in stitches—and a few extra cookies for the night shift.
