Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another morning at Circle K—coffee brewing, gas pumps humming, and a delivery driver unloading cases of soda. Suddenly, an old man walked in, wearing a tattered hat and carrying a mysterious package under his arm. The old man approached the counter without saying a word, placing the package gently on the counter. The clerk raised an eyebrow but didn’t ask any questions. Later that day, as everyone was leaving, they noticed a small note attached to the package: ‘Thanks for always being there.’ Turned out it was from a regular customer who had moved away years ago.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to the Circle K one afternoon, muttering under his breath as he fumbled with his keys. ‘Why does it always rain when I’m here?’ he grumbled. Suddenly, the sky cleared, the sun broke through—and so did a massive puddle from nowhere. The delivery driver blinked in surprise and looked around, but there was no one else in sight. He shrugged, shook off his wet shirt, and walked into the store for a cold drink. As he reached for the ice-cold bottle, an old man behind the counter smiled knowingly. 'Rain or shine,' he said, 'Circle K never fails.'

3. At night, when the Circle K’s neon sign flickered off, customers swore they heard soft laughter coming from inside the empty store. One evening, a delivery driver stopped in for coffee and noticed an old teddy bear on the counter. Curious, he asked if anyone had left it behind. The next morning, everyone in town was talking about how the bear said ‘thank you’ before disappearing into thin air. Turned out, it was just an old toy with a loose thread that looked like whiskers moving in the breeze.

4. A regular customer at Circle K noticed something odd one day: every time he bought coffee after 9 PM, it came with an extra marshmallow in his drink, floating there like a little cloud of surprise. One night, a delivery driver stopped by and asked for coffee too. The barista grinned and added two marshmallows—one big and one small, like eyes on a smiley face. From then on, everyone who visited Circle K got their own mini-marshmallow friend in their cup.
