This review is for all Valley QT's. The stores are still generally clean ( the best in the valley ) as far as convience stores are concern plus they have clean restrooms !
However, every since QT first arrived in the valley the novelty is starting to wear off. They now have some of the highest fountain drink prices, gas prices are generally 5-10 cents higher than the competitors and the employees are not as friendly as they used to be.
They are not rude just not as friendly as they used to be.
In this economy, I give my business to those who offer great deals. .79 cents for a 32oz soda in a plastic cup and or .89 cents for a 32oz styrofoam cup fountain drinks is not going to cut it when I can get a 44oz .79 cent styrofoam cup at Circle K.
At QT a 44oz fountain drink now cost I believe a $1.09.
Here's the low down. I usually go to convience stores for a quick drink and a bite to eat, ie, hot dog.
For a 44oz fountain drink and hot dog at Circle K $1.78 before taxes. QT $2.08 before taxes. That is a .30 cent difference but when you are buying for a family of four that extra .30 cents adds up quick.
Don't get me wrong QT is still supreme when it comes to clean stores and employees but they are slowly but surely becoming more expensive than your local Circle K and 7-11 just to name a couple.
Bottomline, I still go to QT but only every now and then. Circle K despite their filthy stores gets my business more frequently because they save me $$$.
Too Each Their Own !
