Why put up a poster about a promo but not honor it?
LJ P.

Every time I go here there's always a bum asking for change. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. And it's different bums too, not same ones. Like seriously, where did the last one go? Do they take shifts or what? The other guy was probably on PTO, idk. But my last straw with this place was when they put up this sign that says: Buy 1 get 1 for $1 on select chocolate bars. Went to grab a bunch, but for whatever reason, it kept pricing at regular price. Lady who works there doesn't know either but won't override the system (idk if they can, but i have worked cashier before and we can definitely override things on the register) I got the exact same candies from the poster and it still wouldn't work. why put up a poster for a promo but not honor it?

Other services include propane, Lotto, Beer and wine, water, and of corse fuel. Both traditional and self serve check out for maximum efficiency.

I had around a gallon of gas left in my tank, and I was searching Gas Buddy for Shell stations in…read moreLong Beach to see if there was a cheaper price than the Shell that I usually go to. I usually choose Shell because you can get a nice discount courtesy of Ralphs fuel rewards. Not every Shell station is a participating location, however; you'd have to consult the Ralphs website to confirm first. After looking at both Gas Buddy and the Ralphs websites, I saw that this Shell station was a participating station *and* had a gas price that was almost a half dollar cheaper than the Shell I frequent! I literally went across town just for this gas station, and guess what? It wasn't even a Shell! I absolutely loathe and detest red herrings like this one. By the time I got to this station, I was really low on gas and wouldn't have been able to go back the way I came with only a fraction of a gallon left at this point. The exterior looked so much like a Shell, except with "United Oil" plastered over Shell. I was thinking it'd still be a Shell today, but soon to be taken over by United Oil in the near future. Not the case here. Once I pressed the "Rewards" button on the pump, I was looking for Ralphs, but that didn't even show up! I went to another pump hoping that would still take my Ralphs fuel points, but it was the same result. My blood was boiling so much that if not for the significantly cheaper price I had found on Gas Buddy the first time, I would have almost certainly given one star instead. After filling my gas tank, the screen told me to go inside to get my receipt. I have a problem with this because there's a sign that says you're not allowed to park on the fuel islands. I was on one of those islands at the time, and so I essentially would have had to leave my car parked there in order to get my receipt. It wouldn't be a big deal if the convenience store there wasn't empty, but there were a couple people in line, and they took a *long* time for a cashier to service them. I was starting to worry that someone would notice my car parked there and ask for my car to be towed. And get this, one of the cashiers was sick! I could tell because she was coughing uncontrollably while assisting a customer in front of me. Luckily, a newer employee, donning a name tag that said "Trainee", called me over, remained cool as a cucumber, and became the second main reason why I'm awarding a second star here. Even though my interaction with him was only a few seconds, it was the best few seconds of my visit here, thus becoming the saving grace from one nightmare of a trip across town just to get gas. Needless to say, I highly doubt I'll be back unless they convert to a Buc-ee's like how they converted from Shell to United Oil. Unfortunately, I don't see Buc-ee's even opening in the Golden State anytime soon.
