Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when Circle K was usually quiet, a delivery driver noticed something odd: an old man wearing a trench coat and fedora entered the store every morning, bought exactly three packets of coffee creamer, then vanished without a trace. One day, the delivery driver decided to follow him. The old man led him through back alleys until they reached a small café where everyone greeted him warmly. It turned out that the mysterious figure was actually a retired barista who loved his special blend so much he’d been visiting here daily for decades. The driver laughed, realizing he had unwittingly become part of someone’s nostalgic routine.

2. Late one night, while restocking shelves, an employee heard soft footsteps approaching from behind. He turned around slowly—only to see a shadowy figure disappearing into the darkness. The employee called out gently, but there was no reply. Curious, he followed the sound and found… a stray cat padding towards the door. The next morning, everyone in the neighborhood brought their pets over for treats, thinking Circle K had become a secret animal sanctuary. It turned out to be just another late-night Circle K adventure.

3. Late one morning, as a Circle K clerk was stocking shelves, he overheard a customer muttering under his breath: 'I swear, every time I come here, the milk is just a little fresher than last time.' Finally, the clerk couldn’t help but laugh and say, ‘Sir, our milk doesn’t actually get any fresher—we just rotate it so that everyone gets a turn at the best-looking carton!’ The regular nodded with a smile, shaking his head in good humor.

4. Late one night, after closing but before the night shift had left, a Circle K attendant heard a faint voice coming from the empty aisles. "Would you like some coffee?" it asked, clear and steady. Curious, the attendant walked towards the voice, only to see an old thermos sitting on the counter. ‘Coffee’s in here,’ said the thermos. The attendant smiled, poured himself a cup, and found it was the best coffee he’d ever tasted. From then on, whenever anyone needed a refill, they just had to ask the thermos.’
