Truth is they stole alot of their business plan from Sheetz (out of Altoona).

Although Wawa opened their first off-site store in 1964, Wawa started as a dairy farm with a retail store in the Indian settlement town of Wawa, PA, in the 1800s.

Right. When I say they stole from Sheetz, I really mean their MTO (ordering kiosk) system. They also changed their menu to match Sheetz less the deep frying.
