Magnolia Discount Shell

After my visit here I plan to do my best to avoid this station in the future.
One Sunday I was heading home after a long day shooting and I needed to refuel. Not gasoline, but something far more essential. An orange Powerade and a Tabasco seasoned beef stick were what I needed so I pulled into the first station I saw.
The first thing I noticed about this station was the badass old GMC 4×4 panel truck in the lot. I don’t know who it belonged to, but it gave me high hopes that the rest of the station would be equally badass. Boy, way I wrong.
The interior of the station is not laid out very well. The aisles between the rows are narrow and you run the length of the store. If someone is perusing the oil selection, they block your path. I was able to find my items relatively easy, but that is about the only good thing I can say.
My entire time in the store I felt very uneasy. The cashier was constantly scanning the store as if he was expecting trouble. I too detected a whiff of trouble when the doors opened and several gutter punks entered the store. Adding to the uncomfortableness was the several professional drunks fiending for beer.
After paying, I headed for the door only to be accosted by the remaining gutter punks out front. I’d much prefer a beef stick buying experience that doesn’t involve being harassed by degenerates.
Good luck if you end up here.

At $ 3.39, the gas was well priced considering I went here in the middle of summer. Had no issues filling up, except for the random man who told me to «smile».
