I feel Bucees is overrated. They aren’t the best at any one thing. The attraction is they have just about everything so it’s good for stopping when traveling with a bunch of people.

Bucee’s is the OT Baller version of Stuckey’s.

When I was a kid back in the ‘70s, we got so excited when we stopped at a Stuckey’s on road trips. As an adult I get even more excited when we see a Bucee’s.

I believe it. It’s in a perfect location right at the I20/80 split. Whether you’re going to Dallas or Fort Worth or just thru traffic, you’ll pass it and vice versa.

Yep...it's the only thing I can think of that would make Bucees even better.

How do they survive without allowing trucks? Seems like a lot of fuel sales just driving by.


Pro tip- gas stations make a very very small profit margin on fuel.
The convience store food and drinks is where the profit is. That’s where Bucees excels
By not allowing truckers, they keep their restrooms, parking lots and store much cleaner which leads to more retail sales inside the store.

Yeah the BBQ sauce from there sucks...

Sometimes they have the brisket taco that doesn't have any sauce and it is decent.

They do. Just like most companies.

I know the people who make all their pies, cake balls, and other desserts. I'm sure they do the same for the candy and whatnot.
They all have huge kitchens onsite for the fresh made food.

Their tailgate chairs with cup holder (and Buc-ee's logo) are only $5. Grab one of those and post up outside, baw

But for real, no matter how big the Buc-ee's, it's gets real crowded. I don't think they want folks lingering too long.

Not really. Not very convenient when it takes you 10 minutes to walk to the cashier and wait in line for a receipt. Smaller places get you in and out much quicker.
