7-eleven Salt Lake City

This is a good 7-Eleven. The cashier is super nice. I will explain why this 7-Eleven stands out from others: I was not having a good day. I was having a very bad day. Every other 7-Eleven in the valley, it feels like they’re watching you suspiciously. Not this one. In fact, it felt like the cashier was making sure to avoid doing that. I felt welcome & it helped improve my mood immediately. I couldn’t find something, not because of the store, but because I was flustered with other things completely unrelated. I found what I was looking for & went to the counter to pay. The cashier has a positive presence. That’s the only way I can put it. I think he could tell I wasn’t feeling well. He rang up my drinks. I paid & walked out. I crossed the street & realized I forgot to purchase the item I couldn’t find. I left it on the counter by accident. My fault completely. I was so mad I had forgotten the pastry. I stomped back into the store. There was a woman paying for drinks at the counter talking to the cashier. I felt like I had interrupted their conversation. She was talking to the cashier like they were very good friends. She smiled at me as if to apologize for taking more time than she needed to. I didn’t mind at all. I saw the pastry & asked if I had paid for it. The cashier politely responded that he did not ring it up. Not his fault at all, but mine completely. He scanned the pastry on one register then helped a person behind me on a second register. He smiled at me when my payment went through & I walked out again. I don’t go to this 7-Eleven often, but it is obvious that many others come to this 7-Eleven because of the positive atmosphere inside. I felt it & others do too. I wish more places like this existed. The pandemic has created so much distrust it seems… this 7-Eleven makes you feel like the pandemic never happened (even with my mask on). A happier time that many of us have forgotten about too easily. I’ll be coming back as often as I can. If you have never been to this 7-Eleven, go out of your way & see for yourself. You’ll be happy you did.

They normally have any quick last minute things I need for baking
