About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the early morning hours, a delivery driver pulled up to QuikTrip’s quiet parking lot. As he unloaded crates from his truck, he noticed something odd—an old, dusty teddy bear nestled among the boxes. Curious, he picked it up and brought it inside. For weeks afterward, customers began finding mysterious toys hidden in their gas tank caps or tucked into shopping carts. Finally, one day an elderly lady found a tiny plastic dinosaur in her gas cap. Smiling warmly, she approached the counter and asked the clerk, ‘Is this yours?’ The clerk replied, 'No ma’am, but I hear that’s how they say “thank you” at QuikTrip these days.'
2. At dawn, a jogger passed QuikTrip and noticed something odd: every morning, an empty shopping cart appeared in front of the store, as if someone had left it there intentionally. Curious, she decided to follow the cart one day. As she approached, a sleepy-eyed delivery driver emerged from behind the store with a yawn, pushing another empty cart. ‘Oh no,’ he muttered, ‘must’ve forgotten that one again.’ Turns out, everyone in town knew about the mysterious cart but nobody bothered to mention it—except for the friendly neighborhood QuikTrip staff who just assumed it was part of some secret cleanup routine.
3. At closing time, a cashier locked up QuikTrip and walked outside. Suddenly, over the speakers came a voice: ‘Next customer, your total is exactly zero dollars!’ The cashier looked around puzzled, then smiled when he saw an old man standing there with a big smile on his face. ‘Welcome back, Mr. Jenkins,’ said the cashier. The old man waved and walked away, leaving behind only a faint echo of laughter. Since then, locals joke that if you pay them a visit at just the right moment, QuikTrip might give you gas for free.
4. Late one night, as a delivery driver filled up at QuikTrip's gas pump, he heard a strange humming sound coming from inside the store. Curious, he peeked through the window and saw a shadowy figure slowly rearranging the bottles of soda on the shelf. The delivery driver watched in amusement for a moment before deciding to get a closer look. As he opened the door, the figure vanished into thin air, leaving behind only a faint smiley face drawn in condensation on the window. Turning around, he found an old man standing next to him with a twinkle in his eye, who simply said, ‘Just helping out, son.’
