Re: Good afternoon

Most 7/11 store are franchisees who are of the small business variety. Sheet and Wawa do not utilize franchisees and gasoline dealers.

Good afternoon

That's great your dad is a help when it comes to your gas needs. I am all for supporting the small mom-and-pop stores, but I don't view 7/11 as a small business. When I lived in Nevada and Virginia, 7/11 was everywhere. We have only a few of them left here in the Pittsburgh area due to Sheetz and GetGo now being the retail gas and FTG giants in and around SW Pennsylvania. I have heard rumors that Wawa is coming to the Pittsburgh area. When I'm home in Delaware, I go to Royal Farms for gas. I usually check with GasBuddy to see who has the cheapest gas when I am ready for a fill-up. They allow the customer to save up to .25/gallon when I use their card. I also earn free gas over time.

Good for you. Have tried to do that all my life and wish we were near so I could use one of your car washers.

I suppose we always get a thrill when we save a few bits of shrapnel. Nice to support the small guy.
