In my area, Wawa is a gas stop, but most of my visits there are for the
convenience store. I like both Wawa and 7/11.

Stan,

In my 17 years of residency in PA, I didn't think 7/11 existed. I imagined
there was a "stay outta town" conspiracy for them. The only one I've ever
seen was on City Line Ave., somewhere, back in October, this year!

About WaWa, my only protest about them is they went "in house" with the
soft pretzel racket. Instead of the great daily fresh soft pretzels in the
big square crates to pluck from, they went to a miniaturized soft pretzel
in a "baggie," Sock probably better describes it. The BUMS!!!

Best,

Andy

I moved from Philly a long time ago, but I know the locations of a half
dozen in the northeast section. Welsh Road, Bustleton Ave, Byberry Road.
Could they have closed some?

Ed,

I don't know my way around that part of "town" at all. I shudder to think of
the state-of-the-art of 7/11 soft pretzels!!!

Providence used to be like that, now I've got three of them in a 1.5
mile radius.
