7-Eleven Stores

What’s a convenience store doing to get five stars?
Everything right.
For starters, the staff will go to great lengths to get to know everyone who steps through their doors. For a neighborhood shop, this goes a long way to make everyone feel welcome. A few summers ago when they had a Domo promotion, someone would even greet me and tell me if they had new items in stock. They know my boyfriend by his cigarette order, and me? They know me by my biggest guilty pleasure.
I’m gonna share a secret with you, Unilocalers. Three little words that will change your lives forever. And they are… Vanilla long john. I’m serious. I’ve driven 60 miles to specialty bakeries and tried every donut I can get my hands on (just call me Homerette), but nothing compares to what you’ll find here. The dough is soft, tender and moist with just the slightest hint of sweetness and the gentle caress of a fryer. And the frosting is like angels’ wings. I’m drooling just thinking about them. Try them. You’ll soon realize why they’re almost always out by 2pm: people like me have gone in and swiped them all.
If you’re there for anything else, the merchandise is fresh and abundant, the store is brightly-​lit and very clean. I can’t count how many times I’ve seen the managers dusting, sweeping, or mopping. They take great pride in their store, and it shows.
