Poll question: Wawa vs. 7-11: Time to settle this once and for all....
If my wife and I ever part ways, it will be because she likes 7-11 :puke: and I love Wawa...

Any opinions?

5. Wawa
Their food is marginally better. And they are the ONLY convenience store I have ever been in that has consistantly CLEAN bathrooms. Walking into any 7-11 in my area has this creepy, mad scientist feel to it.

12. The ones they keep under the heat lamps
But I must agree with the tastycake. I love the butterscotch krimpets and peanut butter kandy kakes

14. Touch screen ordering of hoagies (or subs)
Gotta love that convenience they give you to customize your hoagie easily. Plus they're good too.

15. Why Not Sheetz?
I know they tend to be from Harrisburg to Ohio (and tend to wrap around Pittsburgh) but I find Sheetz much better than the 7-11s in my areas and better than the few Wawas I have been in (Wawas tend NOT to be West of Harrisburg). Sheetz has touch screen ordering and starting next year beer in their new Altoona store (Which will also have seats as required for a six pack store under Pa Law).

Now the older Sheetz stores have less than the newer ones, but they are slowly expanding. I like them better than any other convenience store I have ever been in.
