“My husband drives a big rig and we pulled in to get some hot food for dinner. There's not much room in the parking lot which may be able to hold at least three big trucks. At night though, the lot felt safe and is very well lit up for customers. Coming through the entryway, we were met by a very spacious and clean area. The clerk working greeted us happily and we began our search for something delicious to eat. While looking around and taking some pictures, I couldn't help but to think this store has SO much room, it's a shame they don't use some of that space for more potential profit. They could carry a lot more merchandise that would bring in a lot more money. Especially, in a town where there's not many businesses left, but still has constant traffic. They had cold food, lots of snacks and drinks and we noticed the Subway was closed. My husband saw the hotbox located by the front register just to the left of the entrance. It didn't have many options at all. My husband chose the last cheeseburger, which left a couple of BBQ burritos, some potato wedges and a little bowl of wings. None sounded good to me and as I was fixing to just forget it, the cashier that greeted us came out from the back like an angel singing to me. Right on que, she offered me some Hillshire Farm bagel chedder sausage dogs. What a treat! I used to eat them all the time as a child and now they're so hard to find at convenience stores. YES PLEASE!! It really made my night and I forgot to mention to her that the women's restroom was completely out of toilet paper. My apologies to the next customer in there, hopefully they'll check on that soon. We had a very nice experience at Jiffy Trip... now to get that owner to bring in more fantastic treasures and gifts to buy. I'm always looking to spend more money in truck stops and convenience store.”

“I was watching Kade Forbeck’s livestream when you kicked her out. Kade was being belligerent and making multiple scary threats. Thank you for standing up to her and letting her know she can’t get away with intimidation.”

“This is location is great and mainly because of the staff. They are always so sweet and so helpful! They always seem to have a smile on their face. If you get the app they have a lot of good deals and you can rack up points to get discounts on your gas which is already one of the cheapest places in town to get gas. They have a decent snack and drink option for a something small and quick. It's always clean too.”

“Been going to OnCue since it's creation. The 1 on N14th in Ponca City is my every morning stop. Louis, & Carrie are always in a very friendly mind set even when things aren't going as they want. The store is always clean and well stocked. The regional manager was there yesterday and took time to speak to me and see how my day was going. You won't find a friendlier chain of stores .”

“Still don't understand how you can advertise a price for gas, but when you try to pump it, this option isn't available, and i tried several times. Just gave up, and of course, the higher price would pump. Isn't that deception on the part of the gas station? Little disgusting if you can't even get the price in the sign. Will try another gas station next time.”
