OT: Casey's

I always order mine with extra marinara sauce. Doesn't cost anything to add. I agree something has changed and some Casey's consistently are better than others.
One of their biggest mistakes was dropping the BBQ beef pizza. That was good
If I'm not mistaken Caseys was meant for small towns with no options. Any pizza is usually better than no pizza , especially at 1 AM. Dominos was the only place we could get food outside the gate at Ft. Lewis , It was ketchup on cardboard and we were happy to get it. Anyhow , I don't look at Caseys as any place special. I have one a block from my house and been there once in two years. QT for me.
I gas up at Casey's as we buy groceries at HyVee and they apply HyVee Fuel Saver credits to their price.
A few years back Casey's gave me free gift cards to be used as door prizes for a nonprofit event I hosted. Their home office, or whoever, was almost insistent they supply free pizza & drinks for the event as well. I didn't need that kind of generous donation but it was very much appreciated.
The local clerks I deal with at Casey's are always more than friendly & nice enough to keep me going back. It ain't a company's CEO that I deal with when I shop - it's the front line clerks.
For the above reasons I like Casey's.

The bigger you get the shittier your stores become, but it doesn’t seem to matter for the core consumer. 7-eleven and Circle Ks are dumps but they are # 1 & 2 in store counts.
The Circle K's out in NC are actually pretty good. I go to Sheetz and they have decent stuff as well, but supposedly a new WaWa is coming in, so it will be interesting to see what they are like as well. Only have been to one in Delaware and it was meh. People rave about Wawa so I am trying to see if my mind can be changed.
American 7-11's are dumps. Japanese? Awesome. About tied with Lawson Station.
Kwik Star is so much better than Caseys in the area of customer service and food selections. If it’s a choice I’ll go to Kwik Star every time.
The Caseys that was on the south side of West Dodge in Elkhorn next to Jack's Place before the West Dodge expansion took it out, along with the "fine" gentlemen's place on the north side of Dodge and forced Jack's Place to move had outstanding pizza. Large, single topping was $6.99 in those days and heavy with toppings, and if you collected 10 of the coupons that came on each box, you got one free. Seems like we got ourselves a free pizza just about every other month. Alas, those days are gone.
Ah yes, the Caseys in Skyline Ranches. I have family out there and I remember their kids would walk to get food from Caseys. I love the finally finished West Dodge expansion but took a while to get used to.
Casey's is a gas station masquerading as a restaurant in the same vein that Bud Light pretends to not be water.
True, but their location is perfect and right across the bridge from Pierre. The store is top of the line with lots of parking. Swamped with customers who walk out empty handed because they don't keep food in the warmers or donuts in the case. I guess they make more money by accident than some do by trying hard.
If you’re not in a hurry, then you will be fine with Casey’s. Normally a line of 3-5 people waiting to check out every time I go. Sometimes you get the added bonus of the cashier complaining to a customer that their landlord is being unreasonable trying to evict them after not paying rent for 3 months or the genius who takes 3 minutes to figure out what lotto tickets they want, then stand in line scratching them off to see their fantastic ROI. If you want to be in and out, go to QT.
