7-11 sucks....

You misunderstand... they still have the various coolers with beer. THEN they have a walk-in with the same beer.

Well, at least they are keeping it cold!

[DarrinS]

You know what I hate. Those gas stations with walk in beer coolers.


Such a great idea, but instead of taking advantage of the increased space in the cooler, they just stock more of the beer that is already available in the coolers.

I need one of those for my house.

Good point.

on top of that, why not put some cases of cokes in there too?

I used one of those coffee makers for 4 years working at the Alamo Drafthouse and they are far messier than french presses, and far less simple.

I've used them too. Had them at my last workplace. No mess at all. What were you doing wrong?

Ah, yes. Nothing like the simplicity of plumbing in an additional water line dedicated to your coffee maker.

That's not hard, and a one-time thing. I did it to my refrigerator for the ice maker.

I had to use and clean it almost every night.

"...Most patrons were struck by the enormousness of the 26th store in the chain that Arch “Beaver” Aplin III and Don Wasek founded in Lake Jackson in 1982."

"...We are blessed with a great following," understates Arch "Beaver" Aplin, who was raised in Lake Jackson, 50 miles south of Houston, and started the company there with friend Don Wasek in 1982 after graduating from Texas A&M University.

No lie. Just saw a chick at Walgreens wearing buckee pj bottoms.

I thought people buying buckkee t shirts or baseball caps was bad enough.

I have never seen that to be an issue. Must have had a poorly made one. You should only have to clean the coffee holder periodically and that's it besides demineralizing it every now and then. About once a year for the water quality I get.

WC, did you not read the guys post? He used one in a RESTAURANT when he worked there. It probably made more cups of coffee in a day than you do in a year.

LOL...

OK, I missed that.

Still, it must not have been a professional quality brewer made by Boyd.

7-11 taking over Exxon in my area now. Substantial increase in beer prices. Damn.

Seriously, Wild Cobra, don't ever change.

Why change a good thing?

ing coffee snobs up in here.

[DMC]

Coffee at SBs is 2.00, and that's the grande. Special costs more, but good coffee isn't expensive.

[exstatic]

As far as I know Exxon sold all the tigermarts in SA to speedystop at one time. I'm not sure if Speedy stop sold all of them to 7-11 or just the ones by my house and office.

It wasn't Tigermarts, it was like 95% of TETCO owned gas stations, no matter what the brand of gas.

[FkLA]

Guess not. We have buckees.

Haha the Buckees in New Braunfels is one of the most ridiculous places Ive been too tbh. They have like 100 gas pumps outside, the restrooms have like 50 urinals and 20 toilets, dairy section, bakery, clothing section, hunting section, like 20 registers you can cash in at, on top of everything else a normal gas station has but twice the size. Not to mention the fact that they have like 50 employees working on a normal weekday...I couldnt help but love just how y the whole concept behind the store was.
