Casey’s Sucks

Casey's bread and butter is the small little towns where they are the only game in town. You need gas, or a quick something to eat, it's the only place you can get it after say, 6:00 o'clock at night. All most every little town in the state has one, and they are pumping in the profits for the corporation. Most stores are older, little money being put into them and they make a killing.
You are correct. it is across from Bennigan’s. I forgot about that one.
you can clearly see when they cut the drug tests and bathroom cleaning expenses
The change in Casey's began when they started buying out the franchisees several years ago. Local ownership goes a long way towards making sure there is service that is up to snuff. They also used to mix the batter in the store for the donuts and now they are already formed and taste kind of like plastic. The quality there has suffered but they don't have as much labor involved. They have remote supervisors that are not there in person and look at phone use and go totally by the numbers without looking at at what might actually be causing the problem. Pizza quality depends upon who the pizza maker is. The app is better than it used to be, but you can't talk to a person at all. the app takes longer to order too. that is my take on the changes.
I said basically done with gas stations. We’ll probably always have one gas car and one EV.
I never understand people complaining about gas stations and comparing them. I’ve never been in one that I didn’t want to get out of asap and I’ve never eaten food at one I thought was actually good.
Naturally I sold that some years back when it was hovering around 95-100. Facepalm
There is a Buc-ee's in Alabama on I-10 on the main exit to go to Gulf Shores/Orange Beach. In the summer traffic freaking backs up off the exit and on to the interstate. It's so freaking dumb. The number of people that willingly make this there beach stop are insane. It will take 20-30 minutes to just to park!
No, No, No! I'm not carrying a card around just for a gas station.
Talking more of those mini-cards with just a scanned piece on one side like grocery stores.
Good point though unless someone goes to Casey's all the time.
Been in Mtown all 37 years I've been alive and always been clean and well stocked on everything you could want there. All 3 locations.
So am I. There’s been a Kwik Star on the north side of 18 west of 35 for at least a decade if not longer
