This place is always very clean, bright, and pretty well stocked. The space itself it so big, you almost wish they carried a bigger variety of products, but I guess that's the 7-11 model for you. They have your basics: gum, candy, coffee, chips, the seemingly endless supply of hot dogs, pizza, wings, taquitos, and other assorted hot prepared foods, eggs, milk, soda/mixers, and a pretty decent selection of beer in the back. I also appreciate their deals on tall boys of beer (I think it's still two for $4 or $5, depending on brand).
Also, big help is the Amazon Locker located in the back. When I order online, it never seems to be full, so it's a helpful option other than the one in the Gristedes on 86th.
Oh thank heaven…
7-11 is the bomb. They have all the assorted stuff you need on short notice and not matter where you find yourself roaming, there is usually one nearby.
I was pleasantly surprised by this one as it was laid out nicely with nice bright lights and a large selection of stuff available. Beers, soda, snacks, coffee and candy are the basic staples but they have a little more in the way of cold and headache stuff and all that.
A quick checkout area let's you get going in a snap and even the help was friendly.
Parking on the street…
EPIC FAIL PART TWO!!!
Ok, so I knew this 7-11 was a few avenues away from the one I was just at that had no Slupees on free Slurpee day. I walk up, sweaty and craving my Slurpee, and see a sign on the door – "No More Slurpees"!
WTF!!!! It was only 9PM. This was supposed to go on until midnight.
Again, the two guys behind the counter were no help at all and were kind of grumpy. "No Slurpees!" was all they would say. "Machine not working". Again, I saw a bunch of people waiting around holding that mini cup they were giving out for this staring at the machine begging for it to start pumping out Slurpees.
Get your act together 7-11. It's not rocket science here. I gave up and went to a bar for a cold beer.
