$2.90 for 1liter of aquafina water
$3.93 for 5 hour energy drink

these items are cheaper at other "convenience" stores.

I hate those little quarter shots of cream and sugar packets!!!!

The greatest thing about this 7-11 is that they have all the coffee available in the morning plus Canela and cartons of Coffee Mate, International Delight, and half and half (plus some others) so you don't have to fool around with those small little tiny quarter shots of creamer (I use like 20 of them and feel really ghetto taking that many) and they have a kool-aid container full of sugar for easy pouring.... It makes my coffee stop so quick and i have the option of trying a different kind of coffee everyday.  They also have the coffee that is supposed to have some energy something in it- after my morning coffee I don't need it but hey- if you wanna be jumping off the walls all day you have the option (no METH needed)... not that I use or anything- ummmm thank you?

Anyways.... they do charge more than the normal 7-11 (because they are privately owned or something is the reason they gave me)... isn't 7-11 a franchise?  

IDK but yeah- they lose 2 stars for:

Overpricing (Nachos for $5.99- WTF?)
Never having change for a $20.00- WTF?
Atm at the counter wasn't working for forever(I think it's fixed now though)

3 stars for:

GOOD COFFEE
Clean store
Really nice old man that works there late night
Tamale cart right outside in the morning - does that count? IDK
Lots of lemons and limes all the time- oh yeah and bananas.

UPDATE:  CHANGED FROM 3 STARS TO 4 BECAUSE:
they always have Blue Icebreaker gum sticks not cubes
