Picture this: There I am, minding my own business driving through the country. Suddenly, and out of nowhere, I see it. A giant gas station where only woods existed before. I exclaimed: "Egad my darling children! There is a massive gas station complex! We must stop". Begrudgingly they agree, and in we went. This store is along the lines of a Racetrac, but more Shell like. What I mean is that they have an enormous amount of pumps and every possible convenience store item known to man, but the paint and decorative scheme is more yellow. This could be the end of my review, but only randos write brief reviews. One of the most important items on a road trip, after gasoline, are snacks. Everyone knows that Gatorade, water, beef jerky and chips are the essential items one must have if he intends to survive a road trip. These items are even more important if you intend on surviving a road trip if you have kids. Of course the list of essentials changes based on the age of your kids, but I will make some suggestions. If your kids are younger, get them a juice with a character head on the top. This Shell had so many different character head juices that it took several minutes picking out the Scooby-Doo one. If your kids are older, make sure they don't buy some energy drink named crunk juice or something because the can looks cool. Kids and energy drinks don't mix. This Shell had more energy drinks per square foot than any other business I've ever visited. If you happen to be heading on a road trip and need the essentials, stop here. read more
