Stopped at one yesterday the card reader was down at the pump went in and handed my card to the cashier to turn the pumps on she insisted I had to pay first finally I said give it back and solved the problem and went to another station and pumped then paid cash .Caseys in my area have really went down hill and I guess they hire people who are almost to stupid to breathe air let alone run a cash register, for the guys familiar with them how are they in your area they used to be great.

The small Casey's in my town is run basically by two very dedicated employees and is kept up nicely. The towns on either side of me aren't so lucky. The bigger of the two actually closed their doors for a few days as the whole staff apparently decided not to come to work. Everyone was replaced and it is back operational again. Their chain is essentially my only local option, but if I am in a town with another choice, that is what I usually choose.

unfortunately the chain of Mobil stations here used to be very nice , but they refused to pay what Kwik Trip would and eventually had no employees left , they were down to 6am to 6pm operation then sold our to a larger holder of more gas stations.

many of the stations in the area have seen similar issues.
the entire business is a few dedicated employees holding them together , and it is just a matter of time till they retire in many cases as they are often already old enough to , just can't afford to till some medical issue forces it.

They need to bring that breakfast pizza down here.

Y'all really don't want a QuickTrip. That'll mean a Racetrack will be built right across the street and both will build one on the other side of the highway exit. And they will all suck arse and the price per gallon will vary by up to 15 cents from one side of the interstate to the other and often changes that much up or down at random from your morning to evening commute.

Quick Trip and Kwik Trip are two very different places

Kwik Trip is a Wisconsin chain that now has stores in IA, MN and IL
started by 2 brothers from Lacrosse

they have good prices on grocery items like meat , potatoes , onions , milk , fruit , bread , buns , eggs , butter , cheese often better than some grocery stores prices and really set the bar way above any other chain of gas station convenience stores for cleanliness.

every Kwik Trip has a light switch in the bathroom with a sign above it , if there is an issue with the restroom you flip the switch , it turns on a light at the counter and they send someone to clean it and make it right.

they have a good pizza also , you can even call ahead or order online and they will bake it to be ready for you when you get there.

although no Casey's breakfast pizza , if you have a good store that is good stuff.

And South Dakota as they are building there right now. Our local Casey's are always having issues with the gas pumps. I just stop going there. Now locals are keeping an eye on their debit charges as one person got charged triple and a few others had problems also.

Maybe in Georgia soon. Caseys is the 3rd largest convinence chain and the 5th largest pizza retailer in the United States. Seen them in Pigeon Forge Tennessee. They plan on adding 350 new stores in 3 years. Curently in 16 states. I don't get good gas mileage with their gas. 3 mpg less compared to BP gas. Do have good pizza. Monopolizing gas prices in areas it seems though.

The company I work for does millions in business with Casey's yearly. We supply and fix petroleum equipment - but we have to get called in a timely manner to fix stuff.
Casey's says they want to add 350 stores by 2026. I don't know how many of those will be new stores or how many will be acquisitions.
I DO know that Casey's food sucks.

Everyone seems to finger the poor quality help. What are the people being paid?

The regional chain right here starts at 16.50. I don't know what they pay farther out in the country.

Thank you for the clarification. I have been to a Kwik trip in Wisconsin.

My hometown Caseys has all the business in town but the building is old and cash register is slow. I look for them to build a new store. I see Caseys getting bigger stores and even a few truck stops. Truck stops do amazing volume of bidness.
