Buc-ee's is a glorified chain of gas stations in Texas. It doesn’t matter if you actually like Buc-ee's; you still get excited when you see the big beaver sign in the sky. Here's why:

Everyone Talks About It

When people talk about this huge gas station they stopped at on their car trip, you get curious and want to see it for yourself. Then you most likely hop onto the bandwagon. It's okay, almost all of us are on the wagon with you.

Buc-ee's is the Times Square of Gas Stations

Good luck finding parking!! Every time I stop at a Buc-ee's, I have to wait to park or get gas. When I go inside, there are literally crowds flowing through the store like cars on a highway. There are even traffic jams in the home décor section. HOME DÉCOR.

Expensive Food

I just paid $10.15 for about five strips of beef jerky. It was good, but was it worth the money? I don’t know.

You Go in for a Water Bottle… and Come Out Twenty Minutes Later

Buc-ee's is mesmerizing. Even though you said you only need water, you still have to check out the whole store. Just in case there is something in that home décor section.

You Secretly Get Jealous When You See a Buc-ee's Shirt

Seeing that beaver on a brightly colored shirt makes you really wish you had one. Maybe you should buy one next time you go… Again, the bandwagon effect.

They Sell YETI Coolers

You don’t have to settle for those Styrofoam coolers when they sell YETIs. As long as you’re willing to drop $300 at a gas station.

They have Their Own Fudge

Rows and rows of it. YUM.

Whether you are a fan or not, you have to agree that Buc-ee's is great at advertising their products and enticing you to come into the store. Next time you are driving and pass a Buc-ee's, you may think back to this article and decide that you want to experience the store for yourself. I suggest grabbing some jerky and fudge while you’re there.
