Caveat - I'm not a gas station person. I don't buy cigarettes, drink sodas ($.89) or coffee, play the lottery or eat hot dogs ($2). I would consider their coconut water, aloe juice & salads. But you have to pay for that convenience, so I don't walk in a gas station unless the cash price for gas is cheaper. That's what brought me to Circle K!
Location -
It's a new gas station, clean and brightly lit with plenty of pumps and parking. The A/C is ice-cold & it's well stocked!
Customer service -
The staff is friendly and helpful. Not including the time, the "system was down" and we all had to wait outside in 95-degree heat (or in your car if you had enough gas left to run A/C) for 10 minutes. I'm sure it was a one-off...
Gas Prices -
Regular gas is $4.29 (6-13-22). That's the cash price cause we're in the hood. I live here so I can say that! Because the "system was down" we could either pay an extra 5 cents per gallon at the pump using a card or bake in the hot sun for 10-15 minutes to pay cash inside & save 45 cents. Of course, I waited, it's the principal!
Circle K's cash price is 10 cents cheaper than the Shell across the street which doesn't even honor their own fuel rewards program! It's 20 cents cheaper than the high crime gas stations closer to I-20 (South DeKalb Mall) & 40 cents cheaper than the Shell on Panthersville! The gas stations 10 minutes away on Moreland are also $4.69 per gallon respectively.
Circle K gets my vote every time, cash in hand! read more
