Wawa
Added 2022-11-29 00:18:28 +0000 UTCWe interrupt our regularly schedule content to bring you Amy in Florida channeling some Megan/Pennsylvania energy. If you've listened to multiple episodes of the pod, then you've likely heard mention of the PA staples, Wawa and Sheetz. The way that Megan has described them, I've always thought, "Okay, it's like a gas station mini mart." But apparently Wawa is SOOO much more. Enjoy. We did. ;)

My folks live near Orlando, and there are a ton of retirees from PA and New England in the area. Wawas are popping up everywhere.

2022-12-03 13:50:29 +0000 UTCI went to college in NJ in the late 80s and my dorm was down the street from a Wawa. They are the gold standard of convenience stores.

2022-12-01 19:49:04 +0000 UTCWhat part of FL? I've never heard of Wawa and for many Bahamians South Florida is like another home. You can almost always find a Bahamian in a Walmart in Miami buying a microwave at 2am! 😄

2022-11-29 10:10:09 +0000 UTCI don’t think we have the equivalent to this in Chicago. I mean, we have 7-11, but we go there once a year, on 7/11, for a free Slurpee. Lol.

2022-11-29 01:04:11 +0000 UTCYes I would visit my friend when she lived in DC and a Wawa stop was a must. Down in the South we are all about Buccee's. It's huge and always busy. It started in Texas there are some in Ga and now there will be a gigantic one in Sevierville about 1.5 hours from me.

2022-11-29 00:51:52 +0000 UTCIt’s still in DC and they opened up another location or two. I just need one closer to my house in Alexandria so I can get my soft pretzel fix. #displacedphiladelphian

2022-11-29 00:44:52 +0000 UTCWawa was so popular here that they opened one in downtown DC, with NO GAS STATION. I don't know if it survived the pandemic, though.
