Great question....these are the exact types of quandaries that keep me up at night! As a Pee-Ay dude that grew up near Reading and later moved to Pittsburgh, I have reason to be torn. Wawa is great......but I definitely gotta go with Sheetz. If we're talking strictly hoagies, I'd probably say Wawa. Wawa has also come a long way over the years with adding other stuff to the menu too. Some of it needs work though..."Whats up with your cardboard chicken fingers Wawa?!?" Anyway, when it comes down to selection, Wawa still just can't compete with Sheetz. It's the ultimate deluxe gas station/convenience store/MTO restaurant. They've got pretty much everything that Wawa has and plenty more. I'd pick a Shmuffin, a Shmagel, or a Shmiscuit over a Wawa breakfast sammich. If you're looking for some savory late-night munchies, it's Sheetz every time. Drink selection, Sheetz for shizzle. And for sweetz, it's Sheetz. It would be interesting to put a Sheetz and a Wawa next to each other in some far-away state that had neither......see which gets more business.

Whenever we go where both places exist, Mrs.MoT giggles when she sees Wawa as it's her euphemism for vagina. She's used that term since childhood.
I'll take either place, but I lean Wawa only because Sheetz are hard to come by in the DelMarVa places we go to. If a Sheetz and a Wawa were side by side, I'd probably go Sheetz.

Re: Random Thoughts
I grew up in NJ, so Wawa 100%. One of my work buddies started dating a girl from Reading and has just discovered Wawa.

Re: Random Thoughts
LOL I didn't even notice the phone. My Dad had a land line installed in the downstairs guest bathroom decades ago. It was one of those slim line phones with the really long phone cord. I mean, it's a guest bathroom. It's not that big and you wouldn't need a 12 foot phone line. I always thought it odd.

Looking through some site analytics today. We have users on every continent except for Antarctica. I wonder how I can get one of the scientists stationed down there to log on when they aren't chasing penguins.
