We're fucking built for this shit!
It's not contrarianism, I went to Bucee's expecting it to be amazing. What I got was picking through a shockingly sparse collection of sodas to wash down a thoroughly mediocre BBQ sandwich (albeit noticably fresh) that was horribly overpriced.

I weaved through a giant crowd of people for an experience that wasn't appreciably better than what I can get at basically any random Pilot.

Everyone should experience Bucee's once. After that if you want to take the goon route of contrarianism and hating anything where people might be go for it, and be warned it is full loving Texas so if that offends you on a deep personal basis maybe disregard the previous advice, but it's something that has to be seen for yourself.

And go poop in the toilets they're considered the best for a reason.

Despite Philadelphia’s reputation as a place where people will poo poo literally anywhere and everywhere the Wawa bathrooms are top notch.

The soda types available in 1999, before half the case became taken up with energy drinks. At least slip some Sparks in there, as a treat.

Why are you getting bottled sodas when there's a million billion on tap, and that's just their home flavors.

Like honestly C. you are doing more to talk me out of Buccees than talk me into it. I like there to be a billion sodas at some place like Quik Trip.

7/11 has their own branded bottled green tea with ginseng and honey now but it's made with sugar instead of hfcs and goddamn if it doesn't taste smooth. if it's worth the extra 19 cents over the arizona is a judgement call you'll have to make for yourself.

i always felt bad charging people the same price for seltzer water as regular soda from the fountain dispenser.
like if people just ask for a cup of ice water, I can pour it for them and give it to them. But ohhh, small seltzer water? That be $3

Apparently Bucc ees is coming to Arizona. Goodyear of all places, which used to be a half-hour west of Phoenix but honestly at this point pretty much is just a part of its greater footprint. That's kind of wild since there's going to be like a state and a half between it and the next nearest one. It is in an interesting location, as it will be on the path the vast, vast majority of traffic from LA to the East goes through.

I'm not so sure I would stop there though other for the novelty of seeing it once. If I'm heading to California, I hosed up if I have to get off the freeway for any reason at all between Tucson and like, Quartzite. Maybe Tolleson if I forgot to pick up food or fill my tank before I left. But getting off and getting back on a freeway in the Phoenix metro adds like 30 minutes to the drive just on its own, not counting any time you stop there. And coming east, if I'm on the ten, that's the point of the drive where I'm on a motherfucking mission to get home and am not stopping for anything two hours out.

They’re building a Bucees near me in Colorado, supposed to have like 100 gas pumps. I’ll give it a go when it’s done.

Out in WI we have Kwik Trips that basically do a Walmart and buy up all the competition and then raise all the prices. When they come in, they have a huge selection of hot burgers, mcrib clones, super burgs, grilled cheese, chickens, taquitos, everything. And they're all $1.50-$3 each and run weekday specials where they're even cheaper. The food is like ballpark quality - edible, but not loving terrible. They have decent take home pizzas and meals for $5. Then once they get the competition gone, they jack that poo poo up. All the hot food jumps to $4-6. The pizzas are $10. I feel bad for the small towns that get excited for them. They also refuse to sell condoms because.. yeah.

A new 7-11 opened near me last year and they have a lemonade slurpee? machine next to the regular slurpee machine, which I had never seen before. With blueberry strawberry and raspberry add ins. Really good and tart too. I'd never seen one before.

I stopped off at the 7/11 after work today, and a Monster van pulled up into the spot beside me. When I was checking out I saw two women talking with an employee saying that they’re from Monster, and that they’re going to do their survey. I wonder what a Monster survey entails? Crazy to think about

i've passed up on the lemonade slurpee every time because i'm usually stopping in during the mornings and grabbing coffee if anything, but i've occasionally started hitting them up for lunch now that i'm travelling during the workday a lot more and so i tried it today thanks to your post.

pretty good lemonade slurpee; raspberry flavor thing didn't work. leaned more on the "mountain dew" style of artificial lemon flavor imo but still tasty.

also as fast food prices continue to skyrocket, the 2 tacos and a big gulp for six bucks combo ain't bad.

That 7/11 also has Mtn Dew Pitch Black Slurpee flavor which is a grape citrus flavor, so I've been mixing it with the lemonade slurpee and they complement each other favorably.

I am also amazed by the fact that you can fill up a giant Big Gulp full of Slurpee for like $2.25, and have a Slurpee for a few days.
