About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At DriveTime, a neighborhood gas station and convenience store, a regular noticed something peculiar one morning. Among the usual assortment of snacks and sodas on the counter stood an old, dusty jar labeled ‘Free Samples.’ Curious, he picked it up only to discover it contained not candies or cookies but tiny packets of homemade jams and jellies. A delivery driver stopped by later that day, sniffed curiously at the jar, and helpfully suggested, 'Maybe you should label these “free samples” more clearly—somebody might mistake them for emergency rations!' The owner just smiled and replied, 'Trust me, they’re strictly for taste testing.'
2. At DriveTime, a local diner known for its coffee and breakfast specials, an elderly gentleman named ‘Coffee Joe’ would always order the same thing. One morning, he asked the waitress, ‘Do you ever notice how our eggs are always perfectly cooked? It’s like they’re programmed!’ The waitress smiled knowingly, replying, 'Oh, Mr. Coffee Joe, it's not programming—it's just our new chef from Ukraine.' The whole place burst into laughter as Coffee Joe shook his head with good-natured exasperation.
3. At DriveTime, a small-town gas station famous for its late-night snacks, one night a delivery driver pulled in around midnight. The air outside felt unusually warm for November, almost like summer had never left. Inside, the cashier, an old local named Mr. Jenkins, greeted him with a smile and offered some freshly baked cookies. As the delivery driver reached for them, he noticed something strange—Mr. Jenkins seemed to be wearing a pair of neon-green socks that didn't quite match his uniform. 'You must be new here,' said Mr. Jenkins, noticing the driver's gaze. 'These are my lucky socks. They bring good business!' The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and thought to himself, 'Maybe it's true.'
4. At DriveTime, a roadside gas station where locals grab quick snacks on their way home, someone started asking: ‘Does anyone else notice how our chips always seem fresher than usual?’ It turned out that an enthusiastic delivery driver had been sneaking in through the back door every night and baking his own batches of chips to replace the old ones. When confronted, he grinned sheepishly and said, 'Hey, everyone loves fresh chips!'
