And you thought ammo price gouging was bad

[AllOut]

That EZ Mart isn't a competing store for any QT, but I'd venture to say that EZ Mart will raise the price in the AM.
It's not a Theroy brother it's how they do buisness and is company policy. I know this cause I did it (for QT) for a few years...
Doesn't its always work out picture perfect? Of course not. But it does for the most part.

When/why is it a bad thing for a company who is very good at what they do, is a top company in the country to work for cause they way they take care of their employees and will bend over backwards for customers to not have any real competition?

Competition is what keeps businesses healthy and keeps prices competitive for consumers.

Of course, what I want to know is why QT uses the worst coffee cups on the planet. When I buy coffee there, I always double-cup it, because the two times I didn't, the stupid things filled my car's cupholder...

And what did Tulsa do that was so bad they can't have a Love's? Even Texicans have Love's...

That's just it with QT they do it even though they don't have to. As far as employers they are one if the top in the country. Plus they will do things for customers that wouldn't believe!!! Prices wise, I've never noticed them being over priced on much of anything. However, they do claim themself to charge a little more on certain things but call it the price of convienence. Really, they do have "competition" but they really can't compete...
I'm starting to sound like a QT fanboy lol, but trust me in not lol

As far as the coffee cups... You got me on that one lol
But they offer coffee mugs! And if you buy a QT Mug a lot of times certain clerks and managers will just give you free refills. I don't think I ever charged anyone to refill one of our mugs...

And diesel should be way less than unleaded.

I don't remember the last time I saw prices where gas was higher.

Geez--take a look at this. Diesel is lower than regular across the board at Love's in Oklahoma...

That's hell of a swing in less than two weeks!

 

[Perplexed]

I wonder how long it'll be before we see WTT ads in the classifieds: a box of ammo per gallon of gas?

Growing up diesel was always cheaper than gas. I am not sure why it ever got out of whack anyways.

As for QT, I love QT. I spend about $2k per month there so I see a lot of them. They are always clean, employees are professional and polite, and prices are competitive.

When the Feds implemented the Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel standard, that made US diesel compatible with diesel standards in other countries, so it's now priced on the global market. At least, that's the excuse...
