I’m not on the road selling anymore (SoFla), but Wawa’s gas prices were always cheaper than most retailers down here.

As for the food, it’s much better than subway, w/ options galore. And it’s a gas station. Like I said, I’m not on the road anymore, but when I am near a Wawa, I gas up and buy 5 cans of chew because I know it’s cheaper than anywhere else (sans Costco or Sam’s).

Working for them is a different experience than being a customer.

Yeah, good point. But the Wawa workers around my way seem happy. Or at least not pi$$ed off.

I have a suspicion that Sheetz was the subject of Karen complaints over its mask enforcement policy early in COVID back in 2020. The ones I frequented had prominent signs on them that said something to this effect: “Government regulations require all customers to wear a face mask. If you aren’t wearing one, we will assume you have a medical condition that prevents you from doing so. Thank you.”

I thought it was an awesome way to get around the idiotic government mandates. Unfortunately, that only lasted about two weeks before they got very strict about it.

I remember standing at an intersection in Tucson in the ‘70s and counting seven Circle-Ks. Of course you could see pretty far in that flat land.

Wawa has no competition near me — the Seven Elevens are pigsties, and there are no Sheetz to be seen. A candy bar is $2.50. Pretty much only go there at night, after 9pm and before 6am.

Thirty years ago, the sandwiches were a loss leader, and were great, now they are cheap on the meat, and use garbage rolls. I never buy pizza or sandwiches at any sort of chain — there are too many really good independents.
