I can't remember if one of us got a soda refill, but if so I don't remember it costing anything. I do know we paid 25 cents for my daughter's cup of water.

I believe soda refills are 35 cents

Surprised to see today that they tore down the old Golden Corral building! Wonder if the rumor about Turkey Hill coming there came true?

Turkey Hill is a done deal...it's to open in December!

A lot of conveniences stores came and went over the past 20 years or so along the strip, prior to Sheetz you had Short Stop Mart, last time I was there the one near Burger King was still there, Time Markets, went out of business back in the late 90's I recall is now Rita's, CR's Friendly Markets, history Toyota occupied the building and then tore it down. Stop-N-Go was Papa Johns last time I checked. That's back when Dairy Queen was on the corner of Park Road.

When they closed the Banana Mart in Sunbury that was a sad day.

Texas Roadhouse looking good. I think it will be done before the bridge is completed!

I think Turkey Hill will do great! Plus I will be glad for someone to give Sheetz some competition. I don't understand what the big deal is with that place? As far as Texas Roadhouse goes..it can't open soon enough!

I guess there's going to be a drive thru market store on the old trail and Blauskies I thought Rita's use to be Unimarket not that it matters

Yeah Unimart was in Sunbury or was it AM/PM I forget all the names, lol places changed names often it seems. I remember Time Markets because I use to stop there for gas and turn down Elm Street, how could I forget that name, Freddy Krueger lol. and take the Old Trail all the way down to the traffic circle then over to Sunbury, that was a long time ago.
