Some of the best taco joints are inside gas stations here in Texas

Well for one, it’s called convenience for a reason. Most people shopping at these places are in these stores in a couple minutes or less and they know what they want. Also, depending what type of package you’re looking for, the conv channel offers better deals. Singles, small packs etc. Lastly, some people might not have the ability or means to drive to a nearest grocery store.

It took 15 minutes waiting behind people paying with cash and trying to get lotto tickets.


I got tired of all of the same f...muckery whenever I needed diesel. Truck stop down from me doesn't have card pumps for diesel and it was just a waste of time every time I had to go in there. Fixed it by calling a fuel distribution company and ordered 2 1000 gallon diesel tanks one for highway and the other for tractor fuel that set at my house. Life's a lot let stressful now I don't have to go there and wait in a line.

You can get a 24oz Busch and a big Slim Jim for less than that.

The place I get gas has a rewards app. I have so many points now that every time I need something it’s free. I don’t frequent it often but it’s nice to grab a free snack from time to time.

Well I live in Louisiana and they all pretty much sell alcohol.

So you get gas, some beer and Doritos.

Or whatever the frick else you want. Pocket knife? Trucker hat? Zippo? Skies the limit.

I had an actual convenience store by me, no gas, maybe call it a bodega. Any way they did hot plates and I loved their pork chops and veggies.
