Phillips 66

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular asked the clerk, ‘Why does that old man always pay for his gas with pennies?’ The clerk shrugged and said, 'Oh, he's just an old fellow who likes to pay in pennies.' A few minutes later, another customer—a delivery driver—asked curiously, 'Hey, I’ve seen him too. Does he ever use any other coins?' The clerk smiled and replied, 'Nope, only pennies. But you know what? He’s never shortchanged us yet!'

2. At Phillips 66, a regular exclaimed one day, ‘I’ve been filling up here for years, but why is everyone else’s gas tank always fuller than mine?’ A delivery driver overheard and quipped, ‘Maybe your tank has a leak!’ The regular retorted with a smile, ‘No, I just fill it up less often.’ And so, Phillips 66 became known as the place where time runs slower for gas tanks.

3. One afternoon, while pumping gas, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and tied with string. Curious, he picked it up and brought it inside, only to discover an old note reading: 'Open me when you’re low on fuel.' The delivery driver opened the box carefully and found inside a small bottle of whiskey and a note that read: ‘For times when you feel like celebrating your tank is full!’ Everyone had a good laugh, and from then on, Phillips 66 became known as the place where even gas pumps could bring luck.

4. While pumping gas one evening, an older gentleman turned to his companion and said, 'Did you see that car pull right up to the pumps without even turning off its engine?' The other man shook his head and replied, ‘No, I didn’t notice.’ They both laughed, realizing they were too engrossed in their own conversation. The old gentleman reached for his wallet, muttering, “Guess I’ll just pay extra for the privilege of being here first.”
