About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning at Sunoco gas station when a delivery driver pulled up with a mysterious package. As he approached the counter, the cashier noticed something peculiar: the package seemed to be glowing softly in the pre-dawn light. The cashier shrugged and said, ‘Well, it’s not every day I see glowing packages.’ They took out their phone flashlight and carefully opened it—only to discover a note reading: “Happy early morning! Free coffee from our neighbors.” Turns out, it was just a friendly neighborhood prank from a local café.

2. At Sunoco gas station, a sign above the bathroom read: ‘Please use soap—we’re running low.’ Regulars soon noticed that every time they did, the soap mysteriously disappeared from the dispenser. One day, an elderly neighbor stopped in and asked the attendant, ‘Why don’t you just fill up the damn dispenser?’ The attendant shrugged, ‘We tried, ma’am, but someone keeps stealing it!’

3. A regular stopped by Sunoco one afternoon and asked the attendant, 'Do you ever get customers who pay with strange money?' The attendant replied, 'Not really, but today we got change from someone who bought a tank of gas for twenty dollars.' The regular laughed, ‘Twenty bucks? That’s cheaper than my morning coffee!’ The attendant smiled back, shaking his head. Later that night, an old neighbor walked in, paid with exact change, and said, ‘Guess I’m not as lucky as that guy.’

4. At night, while closing up the Sunoco gas station, the attendant heard a strange humming noise coming from the storage room. Curious, she peered inside only to discover a neon sign blinking in time with the sound, spelling out cryptic messages like ‘Fill ’er up or regret it later.’ As she watched, one message changed to ‘Better fill up now—your tank’s talking!’ Turning around, she saw that her own car was leaning towards the pump, as if whispering something urgent. The next morning, everyone in town knew not to ignore those late-night whispers from their cars—it meant free coffee for life from the friendly Sunoco attendant.
