Re: Casey's General Store
The Casey's nearest to me on 182th & Harrison has had a busted credit card terminal or cash register system for several weeks now, and they can only process "tap" cards or cash at the one register. I've made the mistake of stopping in the morning a few times over the past few weeks an...

There's plenty of room on that corner. Only the East building would have to go in order to put a gas station in.
I used to live in those apartments as a kid in the 90's, and my aunt and uncle had a house nearby. It's weird seeing the old neighborhood change.

Maybe the lease was up, and it was an opportunity to get out of that strip mall bay without building new. I'd honestly like to see an established place with quality food and good customer service like Culver's expand in the state instead of another burger chain.
