7-Eleven

did I ever mention how rude the empolyee’s are ! Kids of the employee’s hanging out/​playingbehind the counter is really professional… top it off … let the 12 year old sell super lotto tickets and tell me I won 10 bucks when I was trying to make a purchase !!! Even if this place is soooo convieniant I should stop shopping here :((((They really don’t deserve the one star, but Icouldn’t rate them abythin less

Usually just get gas here and the Sunday morning paper. Would be better if the gas pumps wouldn’t run out of receipt tape so often. TIP: the pumps further away from the convenience store seem to usually have enough receipt tape to print you a receipt.

All I have to say is RED VELVET CUPCAKE!
Thanks to Grace L. for recommending this fabulous treat, I probably never would have given it a shot.
I have to admit… I had eyed this sucker a few times when making stops at various 7 11’s and was a little hesitant to try it– First of all coming from a some what of a food snob (that I will, willingly admit too) and the fact that it was from… well…7 11
Any how, I have made quite a few stops at this location over the years being it’s the closest one near me. The service has always been friendly– they do have a great selection of drinks– they even sell diet cokes individually in a can… love that!
As for the cupcake it was extremely moist, rich and sweet!
They used to have this peanut butter brownie that was totally off the hook– but they discontinued it: (oh well, now I know where to get my cupcake fix when I’m unable to drive to san fran or other destinations and that’s super budget friendly.

So I was on my way to band practice (Yes, I’m in a band… I will give deets if requested), and I needed a pick me up. My go-​to? Carb-​free Monster. 7-​Eleven isn’t my usual stop, but I felt like this was the spot to go at the time.
Boy, was I right!
Because as I turn left to go directly to the energy drinks, out of the corner of my eye I see a red cupcake in the refrigerated counter.
Stop the presses! 7-​Eleven sells red velvet cupcakes. And you know what? They’re off the hook! They’re way better than the almost 5 buck red velvet cupcake I had at what’s that place in downtown Martinez. And I got it for $ 1.49.
What a surprising treat that made my Friday!
