| - This is one of my favorite convenience stores in all of Scottsdale!
I usually go to Stayshon's on Chaparral because it's closer to my house and the gas is a little cheaper, but if I find myself on this empty side of Scottsdale, I will always stop in. And it's damn convenient....open 24/7!
I started out by making daily visits to this place because they had a specific type of protein shake that I enjoyed. Then I discovered the rest of this magical land.
This Chevron/Convenience Store/Car Wash/Tobacco store has everything I could ever want. They have a great selection of items whenever I am in a pinch. Each morning, they get fresh bagels from Lox, Stock and Bagels.
The car wash is ok. Not the best around, but it does the trick if you need a convenient rinse. You might have to be a bit patient though. There can be a wait, especially since some of the older folks of Scottsdale don't know how to use a self-serve car wash. Oh Scottsdale....how you entertain me.
The tobacco portion of this shop is quite good. I'm not much of a smoker, but the cigarettes are cheap, but more importantly, the cigar collection is very good for a convenience store. Gotta love the reservation!
If you feel like clogging your arteries, they have fast food here too. Usually the hot case is filled with burritos, cheese sticks and whatnot.
Also, occasionally they will have a BBQ out front where you can purchase pulled pork sandwiches, ribs and such. They typically do this during Spring Training because everyone stops by to watch the DBacks and Rockies play ball.
I used to come to this location often because it was on my way to wherever I was going, but not so much anymore. I still love this store and will try and pop by whenever I can.
