About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was just another morning at QuikTrip when a delivery driver pulled up with a truckload of coffee. As he unloaded boxes, something unusual caught his eye—a strange shadow flickering in the corner of the gas station's convenience store. Curious, he followed it to an old vending machine filled with stale snacks. Suddenly, a bag of chips popped out and landed on the floor, startling him. Turned out, it was just an overzealous chip-selling robot having a bad hair day. A delivery driver shook his head, smiling, and went back to work—another ordinary morning at QuikTrip.
2. At dawn, an alarming announcement crackled over QuikTrip’s speakers: ‘Attention customers—your coffee may be smarter than you are today!’ As the day wore on, more and more people lined up for that supposedly intelligent brew. A delivery driver joked, 'I’m here for the caffeine boost, not a Ph.D.' Meanwhile, an elderly neighbor quipped, 'Well, if it’s so smart, maybe I’ll ask it how to bake my cookies!' By evening, everyone was laughing—and no one seemed any dumber.
3. At closing time, a regular shouted into the empty store: ‘Hey, clerk! Did you know your cash register says “Open” even when it’s locked?’ Next morning, the manager found a Post-it note stuck under the ‘Open’ sign: ‘Try saying “Close” three times fast.’ The cash register had indeed changed to read ‘Closed,’ but only for a split second before going back to ‘Open.’ A delivery driver quipped, ‘Must be QuikTrip’s secret charm to keep customers coming back!’
4. At sunrise, when most gas stations are quiet ashes of darkness, a QuikTrip employee noticed something peculiar outside. A line of ants marched across the parking lot, their path leading straight towards the cash register. Curious, he followed them inside and found they were heading for the candy aisle. By morning, every counter was decorated with colorful candies in neat rows, as if someone had thrown a wild party during the night. The manager smiled, saying, ‘Guess our early bird customer loves sweets!’
