The struggling fellow came over one day and asked the owner of Buc-ee's what he was doing to be able to sell gas at a higher price. The answer was, "How clean are your restrooms".
If a female in your vehicle needs a restroom while you're pumping gas at a Texas gas station then your choices are Buc-ee's, a national chain truck stop or the Black Hole of Calcutta.
Things have changed, but still need to improve.
Public bathrooms in the south have a well deserved reputation.
Hell, places used to advertise "Clean Restrooms". Because that set them apart.
Wife old store was ancient and run down, but the shabby schìttèrs were kept spotless.
Despite how worn they were, folks noticed, and often commented on it.
Sheets is funny.
Fancy, shiny stores. Same with their trucks.
Putting on the big show.
Go take a poop after dinnertime in one, paper everywhere, sink all hogged up,
a snazzy bathroom tgat looks like a bomb went off. Look close, and it's fresh.
I'm told they only clean at night, I believe it.
Somehow it works for them, their stores are magnets.
Folks flock, despite high prices and slow checkouts. The food is pretty good.
