They have frequent in-app games / contests with a variety of freebies as prizes (back in early '24 I won $ 500⁰⁰ in comped fuel + free hot dogs / drinks / Frosters / chips, etc.) & around 1× a month they do a very generous discountnt @ the pump.

Worst convenient store chain in America. Everyone I've ever gone to around Austin has been a mismanaged, filthy, understaffed dump.

@ztejas , as noted in my OP... "YMMV" (no pun implied however def. expressed).

I have never had issues.

That's fair. I have been to ones that were ran okay and they're fine. Just too many experiences with awful ones.

Hell no. Strange things are afoot.

When I lived in San Dimas, the Circle K was actually really boring. And they had a photo signed by Keanu and Alex, with a "XXXX days since strange things were afoot" counter posted nearby.

(also, their football did not rule, and had terrible uniforms)

Stripes says hello

Yeah well you can barely find a Stripes anymore.

I just clicked through some of the Circle Ks in Austin. They were all rated between a 2.0 and 2.6 on Google.

Can't find a Quik Trip below a 3.

30+ years ago one of my audit clients was QuikTrip. One wall of their corporate office breakroom was essentially a recreation of their coffee and fountain drink wall

CREATE YOUR OWN COFFEE AT THE COFFEE BAR INSIDE QT, ONE OF THE MANY  ATTRACTIONS THE STORE HAS PICKED UP TO COMPETE WITH COMPETITIONS TO MAKE IT  YOUR MORNING ONE STOP SHOP.QUIKTRIP - Updated January 2026 - 47 Photos & 21 Reviews - 2746 Clairmont  Rd NE, Atlanta, Georgia - Gas Stations - Restaurant Reviews - Phone Number  - Yelp

I was not a coffee drinker at the time but hit the flavored coffees hard for the first day or two on-site. I don't think I slept a wink on the 2nd night and quickly curtailed my caffeine intake. It was a great setup though.

It's QT for me.

For a .40 off per gallon, I'll bet you might make a minor adjustment.

If it were .40 off per gallon every time I filled up, possibly. I'm not going to download an app to save $8 on some random day in January. I don't even know where the nearest Circle K is located.

I'm glad its working for you and appreciate you letting everyone know about it, though.

Side note - I was in Hutto one day grabbing some barbecue. As I was leaving, I noticed the new 76 gas station had just opened and was offering gas for .76 a gallon for a few hours. I was driving a suburban at the time and it was when gas was about as high as I ever remember it being. I was happy to get in line for a few minutes for that deal and was ecstatic that my tank was below 1/4.

Agreed with their uniforms, and suckage. We kicked the shit out of them back in the old Hacienda League of the CIF.
