Quite a few of the self-checkout registers, which can speed up the process if you're only buying a few things (and you're used to the process, since you have to do everything yourself). Just be aware of what coupons apply, because you can keep yourself from earning things like the bonus rewards if you don't checkout properly. Seems to be the usual selection of products for a bigger store. This store is also the one in town that's open 24 hours a day, in case you need something important like cough medicine etc. And lots of parking because it's a really big center.

The door to enter the store is a pull door, and once you enter it is very air conditioned inside, a huge difference from the 91 degrees it is outside today (09-11-2021). It is well lit inside and they have a great selection of snacks and cold drinks, along with a restroom. Finally, they have a car wash if you want. Experience: I will now go to this gas station over the one next door and the one across the street. This one is way better! It's all on flat ground so it's easier to access, they have a restroom, the store is air conditioned inside, car wash, and there was a young male employee with dark hair working today who was super nice! Much nicer than theemployees at the store next door and across the street. 100% I will go here from now on. Also, the gasoline is cheaper here. For me, really it was the nice employee and the air conditioning inside that sold me. This store also looks pretty clean inside and well stocked.

When I went to report this to the person inside in charge, he looked at me & said that was the oldest sham in the books & refused to give me a wash or my money back.

I will not return which is a shame since I live nearby.

This 7/11 is decently clean and well-stocked. My main focus was the Icee machines though. They had all the default flavors, cola, blue raspberry, cherry, Pina colada, and a fun Strawberry nerds flavor. I got a small and mixed the cola and cherry flavors. It was ~$2 and hit the spot. No notes!

The drink station was fairly clean with all the prices for the different sizes clearly listed on the machine. Only thing that confused me a little was the slurpee cup sizing beyond a small, and they seemed to only have XL length straws, which looked a little silly but still functional. Good variety of flavors as well, with classic blue raspberry and coke and then 3 more special flavors. The staff were all very friendly.

She was the least CUSTOMER SERVICE oriented person working at this station in the 8 years that I've been shopping at that store, that store is UNITED OIL #18 on the corner of 3rd and Escondido Blvd. I ALWAYS get my gas and cigarettes at that station for the last 8 years. But the new cashier working tonight actually told me to leave the store , just because I suggested maybe she should learn how to use the register better. because of the fact she was unable to combine the cash and the card that I was using to get my gas and cigarettes tonight instead of taking a chance of being late in the morning.
