okay so I was going to my local 7/11 at like 11PM when boom it was closed. so I had to walk to the other 7/11 and BOOM it was also closed (wtf). so I had to go to an open 7/11, I walk inside and there is literally nothing on the shelves. not even a melted chocolate bar. not even some chips. it was fucking empty. so I had to walk to ANOTHER 7/11 which had the shit I wanted. the thing is it was so fucking overpriced, 250php (5$) for some localized chips??? fucking imports are 250php, localized should be 50php (1$), so fuck that 7/11. I just go home, on the way home I stumble upon this cornerstore, and it had all the shit I wanted at 40php (80¢), i paid them extra since I felt like I was ripping them off.
Fat American here, its very mid tier but they upcharge everything. Like a double gulp is near 2$ and a bag of chips is like 4$. Circle K is much better as they have 79¢ 44oz drinks and your avrage bag of chips is 2-3$. Id go to wallmart over either choice but most are no longer 24/7.
In Taiwan I used to eat at 7/11 multiple times a week, usually mapo tofu or curry or gyuudon
Holy shit, you actually have something at 7/11 that isn’t garbage in Taiwan!? In Australia, the 7/11’s are basically the same as American 7/11’s, still full of the same unhealthy shit like slushies with 100 grams of sugar.
We don’t have 7/11’s here. If we need some things fast, we go to odd corner local markets that sell crack, alcohol, plants, fresh milk & basically whatever they can find at the same time, and they’re cheap!
