Top 10 Untold Truth Of Buc-ee's!!!

this place has everything part convenience  store part gas station and part fast food   restaurant here are the top  10 untold truths of Bucky's   the origins of Bucky's name allow me to introduce  myself what's in a name well quite a bit most   of the famous shops restaurants and popular  establishments are all instantly recognized   by their names the fast food giants like  McDonald's and Burger King all have instant   name recognition the same can be said with the  Superstores like Walmart and Costco even more   interesting than these iconic names are their  Origins glancing at a name like McDonald's it's   easy enough to figure out where the fast food  Mega chain got its name in case you didn't know   it's the last name of the McDonald brothers who  opened up the original restaurant however with   some franchises this isn't always an easy task  to figure out Bucky's is one such Store where   the origin of its name isn't instantly apparent  when founder R Chaplin III first decided to open   up what would eventually become Bucky's back in  1982 he of course needed a name applin combined   his childhood nickname beaver and the name of his  Labrador Retriever Buck the combination of names   seems to have worked as the name stuck and Bucky's  has become a well-known brand name within the Lone   Star State ever since oh that's why they call it  that some say the name of a product or company can   mean the difference between success and failure  obviously Aplin got it right with the very first   try the largest convenience store in the world  that thing is huge if you've ever been to Texas   chances are you've come across a Bucky's Outlet  or two along your travels take one step into a   Bucky's and you'll instantly notice that the story  is big like really big but if you happen to travel   to New Braunfels Texas you'll be able to Feast  your eyes on a rather unique buckies and to say   that it's large would be an understatement just  off Interstate 35 the new bronze Fells buckies is   the largest convenience store in the world opening  back in 2012 the location comes in at a mammoth 68   000 square feet no that's too big in fact the  New Braunfels location education is so large   it holds a world record for largest convenience  store on the planet from its massive row of gas   pumps sprawling coffee and prepared food areas to  the seemingly endless aisles filled with buckies   snacks and goods the gigantic convenience store  is definitely a sight to behold this location will   soon be losing its status however as a Tennessee  buckies is currently in the works and will soon   take the title of largest convenience store the  Sevierville Tennessee store is planning to open   its doors in the summer of 2023 and will offer  the same selection of Bucky's products to eager   Tennessee patrons so perhaps the old saying  that everything is bigger in Texas will have   to be revised it says everything's bigger in  Texas Bucky's is expanding its brand if we're   ever gonna earn paper money we have to expand our  operation while everything may be bigger in Texas   occasionally some things get so big that even  the Lone Star State can't keep them locked away   Bucky's just happens to be one of those Texas  born chains that is simply too big for Texas   alone the convenience store franchise has already  managed to spread its wings outside of Texas with   40 different locations in other states Florida  Alabama and Georgia are all proud hosts of the   large convenience store and Bucky's is planning to  continue to further its reach and I will rule the   world various Southeastern locations like Kentucky  Tennessee South Carolina and Mississippi are all   scheduled to open outlets in late 2022 and 2023  but the convenience store chain isn't stopping   with the Southern States in fact Buc-ee's is  also planning on heading north opening the   location within the rocky state of Colorado the  Johnstown location will be opening its doors for   for the first time sometime in 2024 and will be  located Southwest of Interstate 25. this event has   not only excited the people of Johnstown but the  mayor of Colorado city called the opening of the   convenience store a reward for the hard work the  Town has put into growth this particular Colorado   buckies will also be competing with the upcoming  severville Tennessee location for the title of   largest Bucky's location coming in at 74 000  square feet really so much for everything being   bigger in Texas semi trucks are not allowed no  I'm afraid I canceled my subscription to trackers   weekly with the sheer size of a convenience store  chain like Bucky's you'd think that they would   cater to absolutely everybody especially truckers  after all with their long trips busy schedules   and the need to make frequent pit stops for gas  and meals truckers seem to be an ideal customer   for a chain like Buc-ee's unfortunately  for truckers who happen to find themselves   approaching the Bucky's they will quickly find  out that 18 wheelers are banned from the chain   please you two are not welcome despite the  atmosphere and the size of the famous convenience   store Bucky's is not a truck stop and is not set  up to handle the refueling of big rigs in any way   in fact the only semis that are permitted to  enter a Bucky's are the delivery trucks that   frequently visit to resupply the locations for  any trucker who may not be fully aware of Bucky's   no big rig policy each location comes complete  with large signs that let you know in bold text   no 18-wheelers just in case there was any doubt  for those truckers wishing to enter and enjoy   that all buckies has to offer you may want to park  your truck across the street and walk over to the   giant convenience store hopefully the walk from  the truck to the Bucky's isn't a texas-sized walk   the employees are well compensated punching in and  doing your nine to five is something that we're   all well accustomed to no matter where you happen  to live the work week can be grinding hopefully   however the endless grind and long hours are  all worth it when you cash in your paycheck well   unfortunately not everyone is satisfied with their  compensation many out there in the workforce may   even find themselves having to hold down multiple  jobs just to make ends meet combined with a rising   cost of living the motivation to give it your all  while at your job simply isn't there for some this   is an issue that workers at Bucky's never run  into the convenience store chain makes sure that   their employees are well paid the pay structure  differs within varying tiers such as entry level   and managerial roles but the convenience store  strives to pay their employees a decent wage   oh yeah I'm very lucky the company even displays  signs that advertise what a Bucky's employee earns   leaving nothing to the imagination and making  sure that full disclosure is the name of the   game regarding workers pay on top of the high  salaries Bucky's also provides their employees   with a benefits package as well as a company-wide  paid vacation Bucky's even offers the option to   use either your three weeks of paid time off cash  it in or let it roll over for an extend vacation   next time for Bucky's employees planning an extra  long trip over the summer couldn't be easier   Bucky's boast the world's largest car wash Alpha  Car Wash hopping in your car and taking a relaxing   drive along a country road can be a cleansing  experience but after one of those long drives   you can you can sometimes end up with a pretty  nasty looking car one of the most satisfying   things to do after finishing a long road trip is  to drive your mud covered Dusty vehicle through a   car wash pulling out of that car wash to see  the sun bounce off of the Showroom Shine is   enough to bring a smile to anyone's face but if  you happen to be in dire need of a wash man you   pull up to a Bucky's you're in for a car wash  experience to the likes of which you've never   seen before the Bucky's location in Katy Texas  boasts A texas-sized Car Wash stretching 255 feet   long the massive Car Wash holds the Guinness world  record for longest car wash in the world too long   the sprawling Car Wash almost looks like something  you might find in an amusement park in given the   length of the wash perhaps some may feel like  they're on an amusement park ride drivers will   find themselves exiting the car wash and around  the five minute Mark which may seem long but the   experience makes it well worth the extra time this  massive Car Wash also came with a massive price   tag as it costs 30 million dollars to build so it  seems that not only is everything bigger in Texas   but in the case of Bucky's car wash everything  is longer as well Bucky's famous beaver nuggets   unfortunately the beaver is also our God in  retrospect it was a poor choice many famous   chains across the country have their own signature  products something that's not only unique to the   chain but also makes you think of the company when  you purchase it Walmart has its George clothing   line and 7-Eleven has its iconic big gulp when  it comes to the mega fast food chains classic   signature items like the McDonald's Happy Meal and  Wendy's frosty are instantly recognizable Bucky's   is no different in the signature items Department  as the convenience store chain offers up a tasty   store exclusive called beaver nuggets what is a  beaver nugget well first off don't worry it's not   made from beavers suspicious very suspicious this  sweet snack is a fluffy crunchy corn nugget coated   with brown sugar and caramel for good measure  think of mixing popcorn and cotton candy and   the Beaver nugget is what you end up with the  Bucky's signature snack is not only one of the   Chain's best sellers but is said to be impossible  to stop at just one bag so it's best to develop a   texas-sized appetite before buying the tasty  snack the best part about the delicious corn   treat is that if you happen to be one of the  unfortunate folks without a Bucky's location   close by you can have it shipped to your home  beaver nuggets are also available in a variety   of flavors such as white cheddar and cinnamon  Bucky's bathrooms are the cleanest in America if there's one thing for certain it's this  everyone has to use the bathroom at some   point luckily if you happen to be on a long road  trip most gas stations and even some convenience   stores all have bathrooms for when Nature  Calls and you just can't hold it any longer   Unfortunately the condition of those bathrooms  can look like something out of a horror movie   Enter in a gas station bathroom can often leave a  person wanting to test the limits of their bladder   and quickly exit the facility however Bucky's  convenience stores are the exception to this   common problem Bucky's boasts the most pristine  bathrooms of any convenience store or gas station   around you're comparing heaven to a gas station  washroom nice in fact the bathrooms are so clean   they've actually won awards as to be expected  the bathrooms are also very spacious with plenty   of stalls and stall space within the sparkling  clean facilities going Beyond cleanliness and   size the Bucky's bathrooms are also among the  most high-tech Bucky's bathrooms come complete   with a technology called tush lights which is  a light that rests just outside a stall door   indicating whether a stall is empty or not the  Bucky's bathrooms are so revered that a select   group of patrons who frequent the convenience  store chain regularly have tried to replicate   the design of the bathroom in their own homes  with thoughts of nightmare inducing bathrooms   laying in weight all over the country Bucky's  has made sure that upon entering their restrooms   you'll be worry-free never has answering  Nature's call been such a pleasant experience   cheap gas well come on in this economy for  motorists the rising price of gas is always   on the Forefront when you're filling up if you  happen to find yourself behind the wheel of a   Tesla then you're likely not too concerned  but for most the standard gas guzzler is the   only option luckily the pump's over at Bucky's  are serving up some of the cheapest gas in the   country in fact the convenience store Chain's  gas is so cheap it's caused a price war with   other rival gas stations Bucky's consistently  cheap gas has caused competitors to match the   inexpensive prices offered by the convenience  store chain they're suing buckys saying that   they're illegally selling gas for less than what  Alabama state law allows the secret to Bucky's   cheap gas is the lack of Reliance on revenue  from gas sales with the convenience store chain   offering so much more at their locations Bucky's  can lower their gas prices without having to worry   about any Financial setbacks if there's one thing  that's more enticing than delicious snacks a wide   variety of choices in pristine bathrooms hits  deep gas plenty of snacks I would also accept   snack tacular there isn't a man woman or child out  there that hasn't been attacked by the snacking   bug whenever the snacking bug comes calling the  average convenience store can offer up a fair bit   of variety but some chains take it to another  level chains like buckies for example when it   comes to snacks you'll be hard-pressed to find  a wider selection when walking up and down the   aisles of a Bucky's with the sprawling shells all  loaded with a standard snacking fare Bucky's also   offers up specialty items Bucky's beef jerky and  brisket is not only highly popular the pair of   savory meats are also offered in both barbecue  and breakfast taco varieties and if Texas knows   anything it's brisket and barbecue I love that  barbecue along with chips and sodas Bucky's also   has an entire section devoted to icy machines the  massive number of machines and numerous flavor   options is enough to Wet The Whistle of anyone who  fancies a Frosty treat on a swelter during day so   if you're ever in a bind when it comes to snacks a  trip over to your local Bucky's will surely solve   all of your snack related problems oh this place  is great we're open 24
