    1. Circle K already has incredible global reach.

      The Circle K in any given small town along the E4 in rural, Northern Sweden is nearly identical to the Circle K on 96th/Meridian here in Indianapolis. 7/11 – which just bought Speedway from Marathon – is one of the few competitors to Circle K. If there is a merger, we’ll all be worse off as consumers.

  1. Too bad all these companies don’t take care of their services, employees, and properties like they try to do with their stock holders.
    Plus, they’ll have a semi monopoly on robberies, shootings and carjackings here in the Indy area.
