About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to the gas pump and noticed something strange: the neon sign above flickered on and off in perfect rhythm with the hum of the pumps. 'What’s going on here?' he muttered, adjusting his cap. As he leaned closer, he saw a tiny figure—an ant, no bigger than a pinhead—walking along the neon tube, pressing its little antennae against the glass. The driver burst out laughing, realizing it was just an insect having a late-night adventure. Smiling, he filled up his tank and drove away, leaving behind only the memory of an unlikely midnight roadside repairman.

2. One morning, while filling up at the gas station, a delivery driver heard an odd humming sound coming from inside the convenience store. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a regular customer standing there, completely absorbed in what looked like a deep conversation—with an empty coffee cup. The delivery driver knocked gently on the glass door. The man jumped, spilling his coffee everywhere. Turns out, he was just talking to himself, reliving last night’s soccer match. As they both laughed it off, the neighbor walked in, asking why everyone was staring at him. The story became legendary among locals, proving that sometimes the craziest conversations happen at 7-Eleven.

3. One foggy morning, while filling up at the gas station, a delivery driver caught a whiff of something strange—like warm cookies baking in the distance. Curious, he peered around but saw nothing out of place. As he drove away, he swore he heard someone whispering ‘Thank you for stopping by!’ Turns out, it was just an old lady next door making her famous cookie dough for the neighborhood. Moral of the story? Sometimes, 7-Eleven isn’t just about gas—it’s about unexpected kindness.

4. One afternoon, while pumping gas, a delivery driver noticed a small dog frantically barking at the ATM machine. Curious, he approached only to see the dog’s tail wagging in time with the cash dispenser's mechanical rhythm. The delivery driver laughed and said, ‘Looks like that little guy wants some quarters for his own piggy bank!’ They took out their phone and filmed it, then waved hello to a neighbor who stopped by to watch the spectacle. From then on, whenever anyone saw that dog near the ATM, they’d smile and say, “Must be saving up for a treat!”
