“I like going to the 7-Eleven. When you have a question or your looking for something they will help you find it. They have good discounts on the cigarettes my friend gets plus we can use the ones on an app to. One time I was in there and I was dancing around looking for something and one of the gentlemen that worked there started dancing too. It made me laugh. Also they tell you when you are purchasing something and you didn't see they had a special on it. They let you know it would be cheaper if you would buy two of them. Back in the 60's my sister and I spent about an hour in the storage room because my mom was working as a manager there.Tgey dint have very many female managers back then. I remember there was a big big box of lollipops in the storage room like you use to get at the bank back in the day. Also my mom won a contest 7-Eleven had going. Whoever sold the most Slurpees won a trip to Jamaica with a guest and $200. And guess who won. My mom. I guess maybe her three kids helped her out. THAT'S WHEN A SLURPEE WAS A SLURPEE!!!”
