A few stories people tell about this place
1. At QuikTrip one morning, a delivery driver exclaimed, ‘Hey, look! The gas pump just blinked “Welcome Back”!’ Everyone laughed it off until… Everyone laughed it off until an old lady in line asked, ‘Is that supposed to happen?’ A manager checked and said, ‘No ma’am, never seen that before.’ Then the pump started playing ‘Welcome Home’ by Van Halen. Everyone cracked up again—and the lady paid for her gas with a twenty-dollar bill, leaving everyone thinking maybe it WAS welcoming her back after all.
2. At QuikTrip late one night, a delivery driver was unloading boxes when he heard something strange coming from inside the store. Peering through the window, he saw a regular customer vigorously shaking hands with himself in the reflection. Curious, the driver knocked on the door. The man looked up, smiled sheepishly and said, ‘Oh hi, Joe! I thought you were someone else.’ Turns out, Joe had been practicing his handshake for an upcoming job interview—with mixed success.
3. At QuikTrip one day, an employee noticed something odd—a small dog kept running towards the same gas pump, wagging its tail and panting excitedly. Everyone watched curiously as the pup approached the nozzle, sniffed it, then sat down with a satisfied look on its face. Curious, someone offered the dog some water from their bottle, and sure enough—after a few laps around the pumps—he settled down for a drink. It turned out that every afternoon, a local delivery driver brought snacks for his canine companion who was waiting patiently at QuikTrip. The whole town now knows to stop by if they want to see the quirky duo enjoying their daily routine.
4. At QuikTrip one afternoon, a little boy pointed excitedly and whispered, ‘Dad, look! The sign is waving!’ His father chuckled and leaned down, smiling warmly. ‘Son,’ he said gently, ‘that’s just the wind playing tricks on us.’ But as they watched, the sign seemed to nod knowingly, almost as if it understood their conversation. With a laugh, the dad added, “Guess it knows something we don’t!”
