Circle K Stores

Here’s the difference between Circle K and QuikTrip. When QuikTrip is busy all of the employees will drop everything and run registers until the customers have been served and the line is gone. Then employees who were on breaks or doing something else will return to what they were doing. On the other hand, when Circle K is busy one employee will slowly check people out while the line builds and the other employee will stay outside for her entire 10 or 15 minute smoke break which is clearly more important than customer service. Unfortunately this is the closest convenience store to my work so as much as I try to avoid it, sometimes I can’t. Oh, and the parking is terrible. Be prepared to park on the dirt lot and risk dinging up your car because all of the spots are usually full… and considering how long it takes to check it out, it’s takes too long to wait for a paved spot.

This is a very unique gas station they do carry liquor but it is difficult to get in and out of and the employees always seem a little out of it over all a good place to stop just wish they had gas pumps

Unfortunately, I wish I could not give any stars. I go to the Circle K on Miller & Camelback. Place looks fairly clean, but TERRIBLE customer service, the employees are always frowning and never look happy. They also have a habit of not welcoming you in the doorway nor do they say «Have a nice day.» I have never seen them out on the floor doing anything, they just sit behind the counter moping and looking miserable. There is also a girl there who took my ID and would NOT stop asking how old I was! I was so irritated by her ignorance. Unfortunately it’s the closest Circle K I can go to get things considering I have no vehicle. Seriously, get some new employees! I hate going there!

I guess I could write a review for Circle K.
This is usually my local liquor store. I buy all my pre-​party booze and beer here. It’s fairly cheap.
The people that manage this store are always friendly and helpful. They know their liquor selection… always a big plus. And they run specials on certain brands from time to time, but then again… don’t most liquor stores?
I have a water cooler at my house, and use their water machine to refill my water bottles. It’s the cheapest in the area – $ 1.00 for 5 Gallons. Score.
Hmm. I wish I had more to say. Lamest review ever? Possibly. Oh well. Deal with it. Hopefully you will FUC it. :)

OK, after reading Doctor J’s review, I just HAD to check it out! I’m doing a temp job at Unilocal’s Scottsdale office, and this is not far from it. Of course, when I needed to find a store, I used Unilocal!
From the map, I thought the Circle K would be facing Camelback, but it actually faces Miller Rd. The «strip» mall is really a big «L» shape, and the dirt lot & Circle K are in the corner that’s left over when the mall was built.
I can see why it would look creepy … it’s an old location, and the bricks & tile are stained. They only get a certain amount each month for repairs, and «paint job» is included in that.
So why four stars? It was CLEAN! There was only one employee working, but the place was spotless, even the fountain and hot dog areas. It looks like a few shelving units have been removed, so it might be getting ready for a major remodeling. If so, it should be much less creepy afterward!

Possibly the creepiest convenience store I have ever been to. I mean, it’s sandwiched between a strip mall and a giant dirt lot.
