Colony 7-11
 

The 7-11 in Colony Plaza is now open. Yea!:a040:

About as exciting as a new Dollar General.

7 11
 

Good news. EZ to get gas for the golf cart and warm pretzels!

How's the coffee at a 7'11?

Did you say hot pretzels?
Be still my former NY heart.

Def not NY (or Philly) street pretzel quality. Just warmed over frozen house brand stuff. Just as good going to Publix and buying the SuperPretzel brand frozen pretzels. At least you can cook them up fresh as needed and they wouldn't be sitting in their heater box for most of the day.

Gas $1.89

Recreation gas $2.15
Large Slurpee $1.92

it's good & they have several flavors/options, but i think circle k has some of the best. i was surprised it was gas station coffee:coolsmiley:

Any body out with celiac ?

Wont crap out
 

serial black coffee drinker says it's as good as dd far cheaper. You have blends to mix experiment with

Also their small hot snacks like chicken or pizza and franks etc can keep u going.
One of best features you can taste coffee out of various urns to make your choice

It doesn't take much to make us happy!

Not a fan

Recreational Gas
 

Why is Recreational Gas more expensive? I was assuming recreational would not include road taxes and thus be cheaper. Could it be that recreational gas is leaded gas?

I don't know why the extra cost, but here is some info.

"The 7-Eleven is going to offer REC-90, an ethanol-free, 90 octane unleaded blend designed for use in recreational engines which can be damaged by the ethanol found in other gasoline blends."

I like the coffee selection in WAWA best. Hot or iced selections - they are all good. The price for a mocha frappicino is about $1 cheaper than Starbucks and it's better!

WAWA up North has my vote for soft pretzels, don’t know if they have them at the Oxford WAWA but sure would like to know....in Covid purgatory in Ohio right now😩

It's "premium" grade gas without the corn off the cob (methanol) and little or no water content highly recommended for use in equipment like lawn mowers and power lawn tools, pressure washers etc. Just bought a new Honda pressure washer and it says in manual that methanol free gasoline is highly recommended. The guy who serviced our lawn mower says regular gasoline with methanol will often have some water content which can rust out parts in the mower engine (which is similar to a golf cart). While I have an electric golf cart the salesman who sells both told me that REC gas is best for a GC. IIRC the Villages Golf Cart locations sell REC gas.

Supply & Demand

Recreational Gas is a huge waste of money. Especially for golf carts that are used frequently. If your going to store your cart for several months (6 or more) you can put a pint of Stabil in the tank and save a lot of money. But that is really not necessary due to TV not being in a damp/cool climate. There, I said it!

Plus they are only selling 2-4 gallons at a time.

Too bad Chef Don of the Burger Station wasn't able to lease space inside. THE best burger anywhere in TV!

:ohdear: A pint may be too much.
Is it bad to add too much fuel stabilizer?

We miss you, Chef Don! We sure wish you'd been able to open back up elsewhere!
