Mega Mart coming to Des Moines area

[dafarmer]

See where Maverick is selling some old Kum and Go to Mega Mart. Get ready for cheap gas, cheap cigarettes, cheap beer, and trashy stores and poor service.

How will Casey’s compete with cheaper gas, cigs, and beer?

They will differentiate themselves with even poorer service.

Service? They take our money that we give them. Service costs money.

Sounds like there'll be competition in the git n go segment.

Maybe. What kind of deals on armed robberies does Mega Mart have?

They have been for awhile except the S. Duff one.

We already have Git-N-Go for that!!

Won't ever set foot in one of those, since they always seem to get robbed.

I saw an article earlier today (Iowa Capital dispatch, maybe) with a map of K&G in central Iowa becoming the Mega Savers instead of Mavericks. I remember one in Polk City and the Ames S.Duff one. here’s the link

So a Git-N-Go?

Git-N-Go stores are to robberies like trailer park are to tornadoes

Interesting that Casey’s bought the DeSoto KG when they already have a store across the street

Mega savers are basically vape shops that sell gas and boost mobile. Some of them are operating—without signage. Trashy looking. Will be interesting how some of these will do in the suburbs.

Caseys and Kwik Star had already made Kum and Go an after thought for the two locations in Ankeny. We'll see how long it takes Mega Saver to close those locations permanently.

The whole operating without signage up is an interesting ploy by mega saver as well. Zero signage up in Ankeny last I saw, none up in Johnston, and only one side up in Urbandale.
