I don't come to Circle K often, but it was conveniently nearby and I needed gas. My mom also wanted to play the lottery, so we stopped in. It wasn't too busy when we arrived, and I was able to pull right up to pump #5.
I went inside to pay since my mom needed to fill out her lottery slips. The lottery slips were a little tricky to find, but the employee was helpful and showed us where they were.
I paid for my gas using tap to pay, and one thing I learned is that if you don't have the physical card and use tap, you still have to enter your PIN, you cannot bypass it as I kept trying. Luckily, I remembered mine even though I hadn't used it in a long time! The employee was friendly and explained that she wasn't sure why Circle K requires it, but it's definitely good to know.
I also have the Circle K rewards app, so I was able to scan it and earn points. I check the app every now and then, and they do have some nice rewards available, which is always a plus. This location also participates in Upside, so I should be getting some cash back for the gas I purchased, another plus!
Everything went smoothly. I like that the pump also printed my receipt, and the friendly service made for an easy stop. read more
