How convenient is it?

Did you know that gas stations actually make very little on gas?  That is right.  Their cash cow is not on the outside, it is on the inside.  The convenience store is convenient, but you are going to pay for it.  Need a drink, swing into the grocery store.  Need coffee on your drive in? brew it at home.  Need anything, go anywhere but the  convenience  store. 
Have you ever notice how hard it is to pay for anything in the convenience store?  You have to go around the maze of product displays that neatly lines you up into the aisles that have a lot of high fat, high sugar, high priced craving food. Once you get to the cashier, you have to look to find the attendant.  They are hiding behind large piles of impulse buy items.  The stuff from the counter on up is to tempt Mom and Dad.  The stuff from the counter on down is to try and get the kids to beg Mom and Dad to buy for them.
Do yourself a favor….Stay out of the convenience store.
