Sheetz

This was not a great visit to @Sheetz gas station. I stopped here after I had my tires rotated on the way home as I was in desperate need of gas. The pumps are put in at an angle at one island since there is not much room on the other side of the wall, and that makes the traffic flow difficult at this location. I sat there a while at pump 11 waiting for the lady in front of me to finish pumping her gas. She had a tiny car, but it seemed like 10 minutes waiting for her to pump the gas. The amount of time it took, you would have thought she was filling up a semi or a Hummer, but she got less than 10 gallons. What made matters worse was that at least 4 pumps were out of order.
When I pulled up and started to pump my gas, I found out why, the pump was just very, very, very slow. I mean after 5 minutes my car was not even close to being full. And I didn’t even get 13 gallons. Since there was not a squeegee at the island I was at I had plenty of time to walk around to another island to get a squeegee to clean my windows.
It was taking so much time, that I honestly considered stopping mid fill up and just going somewhere else, but since the pump was making a horrible noise, I wasn’t sure if it was dispensing the right amount of gas. I wanted to fill it up just to make sure that it didn’t say I got 12 gallons when I only got 6.
I had to go inside since the pump was out of receipt paper. Since there was a lot of traffic at this location, I decided to be courteous and move my car so somebody else could pull in if needed. When I went inside I told the attendant about the ultra slow pump, it was out of paper, and the horrible noise the pump was making. He said he knew it was ultra slow, but nobody had been out to check the paper in the machines.
So I only give 2 stars because a large portion of the pumps were out of order, no receipt tape forcing me to go inside to get the receipt, and horrible maintenance on the pumps. I am not going to mention how dirty the place was on the inside.

I’m not a huge fan of this sheetz. Their fries are very dry. and their sandwiches are way too messy. ALSO they didn’t warm up my «hot sandwich»!! It was cold and gross!

I LOVE Sheetz. I’ve just discovered them recently. I got my «My Sheetz» card today and am so excited to get to use it. They give you freebies each month and always have sales. You get 3 cents off their already low gas prices. I know this company may put the «mom and pop» stores out of business, but in these times you have to be a smart shopper and get the best prices/​bang for your buck. I LOVE SHEETZ. :) Now if we could just get one in Apex, NC.

It’s always nice when a business does something that benefits the customer. Today I went by this Sheetz on my way out of town. After filling up the car, I went inside and order a $ 4.00 footlong and two drinks — a bottle of green tea and a cola from a different company.
The clerk scanned the green tea twice and didn’t scan the cola at all. Now I knew from the shelf tags they were not the same price. When I looked at the receipt the clerk had given me the current special of 2/​$ 2.22 on the green tea brand and saved me $ .74 in my transaction.
I appreciate that!

This is a gas station with a huge convenience store/​coffee shop/​sandwich shop. This location is spacious and new, and it actually is quite attractive inside. They have an automated ordering system that is rather cool: you order any of the food and beverage items from a touch screen, take the receipt and pay the cashier, and then pick up your food. There are a wide variety of coffee drinks, hot, cold, and frozen. Most have a low sugar option and a choice of milks (from skim to half and half). I had a low sugar caramel-​French vanilla iced latte with skim milk this morning, and it was pretty good. You will do better at the good indie coffee shops around town, but the large drinks here are about $ 1 cheaper than Starbucks.
The sandwiches are made to order, and the ones I’ve tried aren’t bad. The place is reasonably priced and fast.
This location has a seating area around the corner from the main mart, so it is quiet. There is also a nice outdoor patio beyond that with plenty of tables with umbrellas. This definitely isn’t fine dining, but it was way better than anything I was expecting from a convenience store. The options for decent coffee are extremely limited in the Knightdale area.
The gas is reasonably priced, too. It’s cheaper than a lot of places I’ve seen in town.
