These cults happen many places. But to say Buc Ees won’t succeed nationwide because other states don’t have the same cult is stupid. If that’s the case In N Out wouldn’t have worked hwrw or any state they xpand to. All of the businesses that have a loyal home following will always have that to their advantage but not succeeding elsewhere... please.

I have issues with Bucee's and don't patronize them, but I do give them credit for recognizing that women travelers felt that there was a lack of clean comfortable restrooms in between major cities. They capitalized on it in a big way. So while the "cult" aspect is all the result of marketing, they did start with a very real void in the marketplace.

Speaking of Buc ee’s, they’re opening a location in Georgia next week. Good luck on their nation wide expansion.

Yes! Finally. My family and I are heading to Warner-Robbins, GA this weekend. Who needs to shop on Black Friday when you can eat Buc’ees!

Yeah. In New York, the “cult” is Wegman’s, which is a large regional, privately-owned Grocery store chain. Basically it is the HEB of the Northeast, and I will be honest, it’s awesome!

The advantage it has over HEB is that it has expanded beyond its western NY roots down the east coast. They just opened one in NC and rumor is they are coming to GA. Fingers crossed on that.

HEB limits itself due to the fact that it is almost exclusively Texas. But hey, they make plenty of money, so I assume someone high up at the company must have analyzed the numbers and determined that it is not financially prudent to expand out of TX at the moment.

Trust if they opened an HEB in the Atlanta metro my family will be first in line, eating our Buc’ees breakfast burritos!

I guess you meant if they opened a Buc ee’s. The second GA location is in Calhoun so that’s a little closer!

What I wonder if the company will ever start doing is the smaller locations like thwy do in some of the suburbs here like Cypress and Pearland

XTRA Airways is reportedly hiring. Originally planned to have lifted by now, Covid destroyed the aviation industry. But they're starting to resume plans

Hmm...what this has to do with Biden and his energy policy?

The only connection I see if his policy shuts down operations in Texas, a lot of people become broke and won't have chance even to stop at Bucee's
