There aren't a lot of Circle K stores near me that offer hot beverages. My go-to store for hot beverages tends to be a cool standalone store in Scarborough. This store in Whitchurch-Stouffville also has hot beverages.
This Circle K is part of an Esso gas station. Next to this store is a pizza restaurant. I parked in a corner facing Winona Drive and Main Street, and walked over.
This store used to be a Mac's. It has a good selection of beverages. The Froster and Polar Pop flavours were also decent, with roughly a dozen of varieties to choose from, respectively.
You can get hot foods, but nothing was there that I wanted to get. There were hot dog rollers, but no hot dogs were available. There was a place to fetch pizza, except that there weren't any slices when I was there. It felt like a hot foods shortage when I was in the store.
It was quite the rollercoaster set of emotions. I was thrilled that this store offered hot foods, but I couldn't get anything that I wanted.
I had digital coupons for a pizza slice and a hot dog. I put them away. Instead, I used my coupon for a $2 bag of chips.
The man at the counter was direct. I had my coupon scanned. I went to scan my PC Optimum card. He said that I didn't earn any points. I said that it was okay. It was habit. I paid with a debit card. I thanked him and left with my bag.
Maybe it's timing. I hope that at when I'm back in the area, there will be hot foods for me to purchase. I'm going through hot dog withdrawal symptoms these days!
