“Texaco in Wills Point, Texas: A Pit Stop for the Disillusioned and the Hopeful. I rolled into the Texaco station in Wills Point the other day, somewhere between “my tank’s almost empty” and “how did I end up in Wills Point?” The place was just like every other gas station in the universe—except this one had a soul, a character, and an odd sense of humor. It’s the kind of gas station where the pumps beep at you like they’re trying to get your attention, but you’re too tired to listen, too distracted by the strange billboard outside that advertises something called “the world’s best jerky” next to an image of a confused cow. Who knows? Maybe it is the world’s best jerky, but I wasn’t about to take the cow’s word for it. Inside, the fluorescent lights flickered like they had something to say but were too tired to say it. The cashier, an older man with a mustache so thick it could double as a winter coat, looked at me like I was an alien. “Where you from?” he asked, as if he already knew the answer and was just testing me. I answered, “Houston,” to which he nodded slowly, like I’d passed some kind of secret test. Then, just as I was about to pay, the pump decided to really start its performance art. It didn’t just stop when it was full—it spat gas everywhere, like it was trying to make some kind of statement about consumerism or global warming. I stood there for a moment, watching the gas spill, wondering if this was the universe’s way of telling me to slow down. It wasn’t, of course. It was just a malfunction. I apologized to the ground, grabbed my receipt, and left—ready to forget, but somehow, unable to. In a world full of hustle and heartache, this Texaco in Wills Point was like a brief and unexpected pause in the madness. A place where gas spilled, jerky was promised, and the only thing certain was the man behind the counter, still nodding slowly, trying to make sense of it all.”
“Love going there they have everything I need from cooked food, pan dulce, just all the Mexican products I need. Only thing I have to drive 1 hour away or when I'm in the Dallas area”
“Nick is the most nicest person I legit have ever met.? God bless him for being so kind. You never know what a person’s going through. I will be shopping more at this store from now on!?”
“You know ... for a small place they have most of the essentials. Very good fuel prices! Good counter help. Reminds me of the old Texas Sigmors and Sinclairs but absent the dinosaurs, with one exception - "ME"!”
“All of the people that work here are good people, always friendly and helpful. Store can get busy, but it has more stuff than the other stations in town, and the prices are decent imo.”
“Seems as though Dollar general is really having issues with keeping the store with employees and I think that this location is needing an extra representative for working with the stocking and the customer service. It is really amazing that you have a store with sales at a high in the area. I'm sure that this location has a lot of loss prevention and I think with the right management and mindset of being the Best person to represent the store. That this location would be even more comfortable with shopping and then having stock out and cleaning the store ?. I really hope that dollar general will test it out and get data and then the Loss prevention going down.”
The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York.

Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
