Circle K

This place is a mecca for the homeless and heroine addicts. They shuffle around slowly… Red glossy eyes with giant pupils… moaning… drool running out of the corner of their mouth… hands reached out…
Chaaaaange… braaaaains… same thing. It’s the goddamn walking dead over here.

I love Amrik ‚??? I don’t know how to spell his name, I am probably saying it wrong too. He is always friendly in a smart ass kind of way. we always end up driving a few miles out of the way because I like to see his smiling face over the other stores that make me feel like I am bothering them when I make a purchase, I am sure you know what I mean.
He always asks about my boyfriend too which makes me feel special, I am so happy to see him back in the store …

Well, it is what it is. That is a real quick place to get something to drink or a small snack. I won’t venture over there sometimes because of the shady people by the front door. But, during the day it isn’t so bad. I give it three stars because once, I’m in the front door, the place is well-​lit and the staff are real nice. Well stocked on things. Occasionally, will run out of some of the 99c 16oz Soda Cans but other then that, they are stocked pretty good.

Cant beat a redbox outside of circle K. 24 Hours of movies and returns but be careful. There are lots of transients. Parking is easy and the people are friendly and kind.

ok –downgrade on the Circle K from 5 to 4 stars because…
1 — The shady characters are crawling all over the place — it’s like Zombieland over there!

There are plenty of shady characters that hang out in front of this Circle K. Like the fat guy in the most disgusting pair of sweats I’ve ever seen who started yelling at me for not giving him money. Incidentally, I’d gone in there to get cash but the ATM was out of order, so even if I did want to give my spare change to a dude that was yelling at me and calling me names (you know, you catch more flies with honey than vinegar…), I really didn’t have any money to give because the damn ATM didn’t work.
On the other hand, aside from the busted ATM (which is hopefully fixed by now), the rest of the store is very well-​stocked. Lots and lots of beer, and usually some good sale prices. Just watch out for the mean-​looking fat guy outside. He is not a nice man.

I’d like to address Eric B.‘s review:
«3) NOT a favorite hangout for scary people speaking in tongues with invisible friends. «
I disagree.
I’ve been here several times as I too live fairly close and on more than one occasion I’ve been harassed by hobos who smell of piss and Pabst who may not be scary, speak in tongues or have invisible friends but they will do the following:
Ask you for a bite of your pizza.
Saunter over to suggest movies to you at the Redbox…“yooo shud see Transformah pert 2, it hazzss greeet erfects»…really? You saw Transformers? You spent $ 10 to see a movie over a 12 pack? OK pal.
Ask you what you do for a living: I’m an astronaut, what about you? My daughter is an astronaut too, do you know her? Shit yes!
Ask if you are single: No, watchoo doin’ tonight you dirty sweet thing you? I so wanna hit that… maybe catch Transformer 2 again?
Even with all this nonsense Circle K still offers great deals on Diet Rockstars 2 for $ 3, is there when I’m short on milk and hello! they have a Redbox out front.
