Not only do they look like they barely survived the apocalypse, they also function like they barely survived the apocalypse. I try to insert my card, & it gets stuck about halfway through. Then it's a game - What will make the card fit? A different card insertion technique? Slower? Smoother? At a different angle? Aggressively smashing it into the machine? There seems to be no technique, though. It's just sheer luck that one of my infuriated attempts will finally work & my card will fit in the machine. Wrestling with the card machine will bring my cortisol levels up dangerously high. I'll take a big deep breath, choose my gas, & start to fill up my tank. It's at this moment, when my sanity is teetering on the edge of a cliff, that the screen on the pump comes to life & begins SCREAMING pestilent advertisements at me. I'm surprised I also don't scream. Anyways, the need to knows: - Gas is priced at whatever gas is priced - There's an air machine - The food mart only has XL cans of Coke - Folks will probably come up to you & ask for money - Pumping gas is stressful here

If you are driving south on Broad street past the highway, this would be one of the stations you will see on the way south. The food mart has the basic snacks and food items that you would find at any similar Food Mart, so nothing out of the ordinary. Self serve stations allow for easy payment and dispensing. Easy in/out from Broad and/or Elmwood. Shell is a British multinational oil and gas company headquartered in London, England. Shell is a public limited company with a primary listing on the London Stock Exchange (LSE) and secondary listings on Euronext Amsterdam and the New York Stock Exchange. It is one of the oil and gas "supermajors" and by revenue and profits is one of the largest companies in the world, ranking within the top 10 of the Fortune global 500 since 2000. Measured by both its own emissions, and the emissions of all the fossil fuels it sells, Shell was the ninth-largest corporate producer of greenhouse gas emissions in the period 1988-2015. Impressive.

It appears they used to do automotive repairs at one time, but now, it's just a gas station and basic convenience store. I found gas prices to be fairly high, but on the plus side, the parking lot is humongous. In fact, during my recent visit, a tractor-trailer pulled up to the pumps (to refuel, not to make a fuel delivery), and its trailer stuck out way past the pumps, yet it did not block access to the parking lot. I found a nice spot to park and eat my lunch under some shade trees. There was no bathroom as far as I could tell. That, plus high gas prices, would normally garner only a 2-star rating, but I decided to rate them 3 stars because there was a really odd vibe to this place (it kind of reminded me of the movie "Clerks"). If nothing else, it was sort of entertaining. Some dude with a huge pot belly was hanging out, standing awkwardly just inside the door, talking to the male cashier. There must not be much excitement there, because their topic of discussion was how much the sale would total when the tractor-trailer driver stopped filling his tank (one guessed $150, the other guessed $300). I bought some gum and candy, and went out to my truck to eat my sandwich from a nearby deli. The cashier later came outside and poked his head around the corner, looking at my parked truck. Then, a young man driving a hooptie Jeep that squeaked something awful when he turned the wheels, parked next to my truck. Another guy parked on the other side of my truck, got out, went over to the Jeep dude, and made a parking-lot diagnosis that it was his suspension bushings. Armed with a can of WD-40, he sprayed the Jeep's suspension, and voilla, the Jeep made quiet turns! He even gave the kid the can of WD-40 (I'm not sure if they knew each other, or were random strangers). Then, a construction worker driving a truck parked nearby, and was met by another construction dude that was creeping around the parking lot. They went in the nearby woods, had a loud and animated conversation, and then left together in the truck. After enduring stares, squeaks and squawking, finally, I got to finish my lunch in peace.

As I made this realization, I noticed out of the corner of my eye movement. The man in the car behind me was seriously busting a move. In fact I thought he was seizing out. I was ready to jump out at this red and check if he was okay. Just wish I knew what song he was dancing to. Really makes me wonder. Thanks Yelp this review is looking pretty epic .
