7-Eleven

Don’t know if you’re expecting anything different from a 7 – 11.
Simple store. Decent workers. Normally pretty clean.
I just come here for Slurpees. The machine is working 90% of the time. The last time I was here, 2 flavors were broken though.

Under new management with a new crew. I still stop by to visit the Tillamook beef stick rack, etc. The place is buzzin and well-​stocked.

Oddly, this 7-​Eleven is very overpriced compared to other locations I’ve been to. I don’t know why, I mean it’s located in a college town where the majority of their customers are going to be students… Anyhoot, it’s a small store and they don’t have too many items. In regards to customer service? It’s a 7-Eleven…but when I went in, I didn’t really see anyone behind the counter or around the store… so I guess service lacks, lol.

It’s a convenient store. Get in, get out, get ahead.
Good place to redeem your free redbox movie codes and get an ICEE.
3-​stars because it’s like every other convenient store.
Pro-​Tip:
Never buy hot/​warm food for the possibility of food poisoning.

I want to say. that I am not bitter over this particular 7-​eleven. although, really, for two weeks I was food poisoned by one of their prominently placed Jalapeño Taquitos one unfine Friday afternoon. How did I know that it was specifically this food item that caused me to wail and ail, you ask? well, Friday morning, right before I went to class, and before my long cruise to Santa Cruz to visit the girlfriend, I grabbed a singular 7-​eleven Jalapeño Taquito from the friendly, harmless lookin man as a morning snack, a kind of small calorie intake with a pack of flavor and a spicy edge. Leaving with a Jalapeño Taquito in one hand and a Lotto ticket in the other hand, and walking towards my well-​fueled car, I felt as though I was the luckiest man on Earth. I left. with no idea of what was planned for me. I went to class, normal. I went to the gym, normal. Went home, packed, and drove away in anticipation of looking slim, healthy, and seeing the girlfriend in the next 2 hours –still normal. Not bad on nothing but a single Taquito for the past 5 hours. Well, that comfort soon turned into a crippling disability. on my way to Santa Cruizzey, driving 1 hour in, I start to feel nauseous, disoriented, and feverish. I thought maybe it was just because I was flushed with excitement in part due to my new girlfriend, whom I’ve only known for about 2 months. I looked in the rear-​view mirror… and I was flushed red, a hew so dark red, I felt like I was about to spoil or combust. What shown outside, was reflected on my insides as well; my stomach churned to the bacteria newly-​infected into my system, my brain confused as the blood rushes to my tomato flavored head, and each one of my muscles ached in discomfort. I thought I had caught the Swine Flu. I felt soo sick by the time I actually reached my girlfriends house. First thing I said when she hugged and kissed me… «baby im not feeling too good.» later on that night, lets just say. some things didn’t work as they should have. one of my close friends know what I’m talking about har har. I thought I was a broken man. I shatted shredded poo every two hours for the rest of 2 weeks, as well as a half-​month long stomach ache that could not be cured.
That being said, and story told, please take my post into real consideration before you buy a 1 dollar and 33 cent Taquito from this particular 7-​eleven, especially the Jalapeño one. Very much like Walmart, their great values come from a price tag none of us want to see. or hear about (behind paper-​thin doors that all of my girlfriend’s roommates could easily hear through at 2am… sorry nahpham). har har har

Super nice guy at the register! My group of hs students were up on time, got ready, showered, ate and loaded their stuff into the van at an alarming rate to the point I thought hell might have frozen over. In being super early we spotted a 7-​eleven and said YES! A student needed ice to keep their meds cold and the guy let her have a cup without charging THANK YOU! Coffee is a toss up at 7-eleven…fortunately the station was super clean and the coffee was fresh.
