There's a travel stop at exit 26 on I29 in Southeast SD called the Coffee Cup Travel Plaza that's the nicest and cleanest and by far best I've ever been in. We stop there going and coming from Pheasant hunting. Buc-ees may be bigger but bigger don't always mean better. The Busy Bee in Live Oak FL (on I-10 about 10 miles before you get to I-75) has the cleanest and nicest "road" bathrooms I've seen....Buc-ee's is 2nd. We stop there often when going to visit family on the Palm Coast. Very clean bathrooms.

Second Busy Bee in Live Oak. Stopped in the new BB south of Macon the other day. Very nice!

One thing I noticed about Bucee's. Looks like everybody gets gadsden then goes inside. I got gas and the twelve vehicles around me were empty. Get gas then go find a parking space like any other gas station.

Get gas then go find a parking space like any other gas station. Yup. Sorta like many people aren't capable of self-governance with returning their grocery cart to the designated cart return. Typically it's a combination of selfishness, laziness and stupidity.

They only have about 500 pumps. I’ve never seen them anywhere near full. I usually just go inside while my diesel is pumping anyways.

Surprised no one has brought up they're often the cheapest for deer corn without buying directly from a farm or HUGE quantities. Guess that's why you see damn empty corn sacks on the side of the road for 25 miles at every point of the compas, from Buc-ees. They sell empty corn sacks? Yeah, I was trying to work out in my head why someone would buy a sack of corn at Bucees and immediately have an empty bag....that math ain't addin' up down here, Bucees is in nowheresville and just up the road, there's about 20 some odd thousand acres of old IP land. hunting clubs, private hunting land, what-have-a. some of these folks buy a lot of corn (Bucees checks the local corn prices everyday and will be the lowest seller) and once they spread the golden nuggets, the bag gets tossed into the bed of the truck. down the road they go and out goes the empty corn bag. they everywhere along the roads.

Thanks VT. Thought the herd would be smart enough to figure that out. Guess not 😊

[/quote] Would be the same thing if they went to Atlanta to get their corn. Ain't got nothing to do with Buc-ees.

Blaming Bucees for empty corn bags on the road is the same line of rationale that leads to blaming gun manufacturers for mass shootings.

Hey hey hey. Read what I wrote! I’m not blaming the store for the corn sacks alongside the road. I do blame the folks that throw them in the back of their truck and haul azz down the road, only to let them blow out. Putting the blame on the store, for the roadside trash would kinda be like a pickup truck driver saying his trucks tires were the reason he got stuck in a little mud puddle. In both cases, it’s mostly the fault of the one behind the wheel I’m also saying the roads littered with empty corn sacks looks bad for all of us that hunt.

I’m sure I’ll stop by there when I’m out that way, just to check it out, but I’m not making a special trip just to go visit a new gas station.
