It's amazing what happens when people don't think they have competition and what they can get by with.

Yep, exactly! Really, 7/11 needs to do something drastic like this concept for them to stay up with OnCue (in my opinion). For example, now with OnCue at 44th and S. Shields, I see so many more cars at the OnCue then I do at the old 7/11 across the street. I can't help but think that it's just killing their profits. One of the biggest things I love about all OnCues, isn't the froyo bar or the numerous amounts of coffee, but the cleanliness! I'm always surprised how clean they can keep those places, which is something 7/11 definitely can't seem to do.

We've talked about this before but one of the best things about OnCue is their bathrooms. Let's face it, that's a pretty important amenity when you are out running around and easy access certainly factors into where I stop for gas or convenience items.

With 7 Eleven, most don't even have a public restroom and if they do it's some weird setup with a key chained to a block of wood and disgusting conditions.

OnCue doesn't even have doors on their restrooms... Just those privacy entries like you would see in an airport. Not only easy in and out with plenty of capacity and cleanliness, but you don't have to touch door knobs or faucets.

I've got to believe that is a big draw for them. It certainly has drawn me in several times and I've always spent money while there.

I talked to the construction company that is building this one back and they are set to start footings on Monday. I haven't seen the plans yet but it is suppose to be the new style as seen in the 7-11 thread.

Work has finally started on the oncue site also.

I noticed that driving by this afternoon. I'm sure it is not a coincidence that they are both getting going. I think 7-11 will have a bit run on the time frame considering all their underground tanks and stuff were not disturbed.

I thought they were required to take them out of the ground when they are not actively using them? Maybe there is a loophole I don't know about since they have been active with the site over the past two year.

That could be possible as I don't know the rules about that. I know everything above ground was removed and think that if they had to take tanks and everything out they would have done that when they removed the building as slab previously.

I don't know if the law specifically states that tanks have to be removed. It probably says tanks have to be actively monitored and maintained. Most gas stations that shut down have no intention of coming back so its cheaper to have the tanks removed.

Thanks jn1780, that makes sense.

Finally some official news...

[url=http://www.themooredaily.com/news/7-eleven-unveils-plans-to-rebuild-moore-store]N The new 7 elevens are nice. They make pizzas and other hot items. The bathrooms are a little bigger with a toilet stall and seperate urinals. I think they have a smoothie machine with about 4 flavors. The big thing is they now have diesel fuel. From a vendor perspective. 7-Eleven is still real busy until around 12 am. Also the bathrooms at 7 Eleven's are not locked. They do shutdown some of the bathrooms that are in the stockroom at a certain time. Last night we were at the one on 164th and May. It had about 8 cars in the lot. We passed OnCue on May. It was empty. Not a single car.

I bet the OnCue had cleaner floors and bathrooms. Also bet the trash cans at the pumps weren't overflowing nor was the receipt paper out at the pumps. I guess I've just been disappointed every time I've been to 7-11 and really impressed with OnCue.

They really stepped up their game.....

Anybody else notice they went ahead and closed the older, small 7 Eleven just west of this one almost to Santa Fe?

They needed to, it was small and dirty in there.....

That one was a mess. That entire intersection with the double wacky left turn thing and all the neighborhood traffic really mucks up flow. I think there is still another gas station there? or did it turn into a complete vape shop?

That is a real clusterf***.

They were getting ready to close it before the tornado but after that one was destroyed they left it open.
