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.

I 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.

What 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! 😄
Megan Erickson
Haha. She really is. In personality too. *Sometimes* that is a good thing...LOL
Daisy
Your daughter is your mini me, so fun!
Kara Guminski
Oh yeah, Wawa is a wonder.

I 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.

My son wants to go back so badly. Lol.

Yes 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.

It’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
Megan Erickson
I had one. Cheese filled!

Wawa 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.

Grab a soft pretzel if the Wawa has them!
