I was in a focus group a little over a year ago, and I think it was about a Sheetz concept location within the city without gas pumps. I mentioned during the group that I'd heard rumors of Sheetz considering a location in Oakland back when that Marathon was torn down. The folks running the panel weren't happy that I shared that info, because everyone started sharing ideas about convenience stores.

The choir director. She even looks like she's singing.

"Ready to eat" is different from prepared hot foods. You can order cold sandwiches at Speedway made to order and put it on your EBT card, and I -think- you can do the same at GetGo and Sheetz. It's just like grabbing a premade hoagie out of the cooler at Giant Eagle.

When I worked at a convenience store 20 years ago, fountain drinks couldn't be put on EBT unless you kept the straw out of it. I don't know if that's an -official- rule or if the store owner just made shit up, but as soon as a straw was inserted in a fountain drink in the store, it was considered "prepared food." 🤷 "Gotta go outside and do it, not my rules."

A lot of delis and bakeries take EBT because it's just the same type of thing as visiting the bakery or deli at a supermarket.

We need to start sending some drones over there or something. This is some legendary stuff I've never heard before. I mean, Washington's Landing and even Neville Island are kinda cool but this is interesting as fuck.

I've been training myself to type better and you're right. Words become macros and can flow off your fingertips without you even knowing the movements you just made. I sometimes find myself regressing into my old typing behaviors where every letter seems to take a monumental effort to hit, but with practice I've been able to get back on track.

Donnelly Directory isn't something I thought I'd remember. Thanks for unlocking that memory.

It really do be like that when folks are flipping shitty houses with "sliding barn doors" on their shitty "en suite" and using them as a statement piece.

I wish I could give you a better answer then everyone else, but I haven't been in a shop since pre-COVID. Best of luck, though.

You might be better off posting in a more generalized sub like r/homeimprovement that might get the attention of locals. Also, I've seen a lot of doors at antique shops all around the area, even tiny shops.

We did this at Kaufmann's when I worked there in the early 2000's.
