First of all, I'm still astounded at this place's address having been noted as being "Highland" when it's actually on the way into New Paltz on a street that leads you to New Paltz but off a more major street near Lloyd/Highland but not to be confused with the Speedway near the Burger King in Highland itself on the other side of the more-major street.)
When I came here yesterday, I was looking for another Speedway to get gas. I had a budget of so much gas to get, and having not had cash to pay and having chosen not to reload my Speedway Gas Card, I knew I had to watch out. I had plenty of time on my hands having reached here after one of my local Uber customers from my town ended up bringing me on a journey to New Paltz where she was headed for work. (Won't mention a name here...sorry.)
I had been here before, but had never had a chance to write a review about this place. The transaction started off real well. A little rocky at first, having almost forgotten about my Speedy Rewards card, but before I grabbed the pump to start pumping (with a pay-at-the-pump experience), I realized what I had done and cancelled the sale, then went through the right rig-a-marole and got my Speedy Rewards number accepted for points from this purchase.
It didn't really seem like it was as crowded as I had seen at several times in the past, but then again, I'm generally not one to be coming into New Paltz all that often, so I don't generally check this place out very often. (When I stop in at a Speedway, I'm either at the Hyde Park or Kingston (Flatbush Ave) locations, so this was an odd stop-in for me.)
I really don't know if I'll be back. Maybe I will. I guess that only time will tell whether I'll return or not. read more
