7-Eleven

Welcome to the Ground Zero of 7-​Elevens.
I only come here out of desperation and convenience, though it’s usually more efficient to drive in any direction to a different location.
They probably won’t have what you want.
If they do, it’s probably not fresh.
Or possibly expired.
PLEASE CHECK ANY MILK BEFORE POURING IT INTO YOUR COFFEE.
I have seen curdled milk on MULTIPLE OCCASIONS.
Sniff your coffee as you’re pouring it into your cup, it may be burnt.
Sometimes they do not have the hot-​cup paper holders.
Sometimes they only have the flat lids.
Sometimes they only have the dome lids.
Sometimes they do not have any stirrers.
Sometimes they actually do not have cigarettes (what??).
Sometimes there are people outside begging for money.
Once you are ready to be rung up, you may have to wait 10 minutes or more, depending on the intensity of the conversation between clerks.
Sometimes, there is only one clerk visible to the eye but he is asleep.
Don’t try to cash in any lottery tickets, especially scratch offs, they will tell you that the machine is shut off (what??).
Do yourself a favor and pass this location.
Don’t worry, there are 5 other 7-​Elevens in any given direction within a mile.

This by far is the worst ⁷⁄₁₁ I have ever been to. The place is filthy. The staff is untrained and under managed. They should give a bottle of hand sanitizer with every coffee sold. It is disgusting and the staff is rude. If they don’t know how to ring something up they just let the customer go with the merchandise. I am sure the staff gets minimum wage but I guess you get what you pay for. ⁷⁄₁₁ corporate should really come in and inspect this place or at least the board of health. Horrible, just horrible!

Their blueberry coffee is really really good. At 99 cents its cheap as hell too.

I live in Boston. Just reviewed my bank statement and see a FRAUDULENT charge to my debit card at this store, oddly in the same amount as another FRAUDULENT charge to the same debit card at another 7 Eleven in your area.
I have never had the dubious pleasure of visiting this store, so I need to ask whether 7 Eleven has any reasonable security in place. How can someone go there and buy gas or a gallon of flavored water without presenting a valid credit card? How can two 7 Elevens manage to process the FRAUDULENT charges in the same amount, also without having my credit card? More to the point: Why would anyone use a credit or debit card at any 7 Eleven? Why would anyone ever bring their business to any store that enables FRAUDSTERS to do this?

Great coffee!

I pulled into this 7 – 11 just after my car almost burst into flames on Sunrise highway. Smoke was billowing out of the hood and a friendly patron resembling Carl Whiters asked «yo is your car on fire?!». I was pleased to tell him no, and he seemed delighted as well.
I perused this 7 – 11 as I waited for a tow-​truck. The smell of 7 – 11 donuts, coffee and taquitos permeated the air. I wondered, why doesn’t Yankee Candle make a scent like this. I proceeded to the counter to buy a bag of prepackaged peanuts priced at .59 cents and a bottle of Club Soda– my first meal after escaping death. The cashier was friendly and knew his way around a Lotto machine.
Finally, the tow-​truck came. «does it start at all?»
«yes,» I answered with my bronze skin glistening in the sun.
«then what’s the problem?»
«when it’s on it’s smoking and people ask if it’s on fire.». He nodded understandingly.
Off we went to rectify my car situation, but I will never forget the prepackaged peanuts and courteous staff of 7 – 11 in Freeport.
