Revolutionizing the convenience store industry has become the norm in recent years, and the journey has only just begun. With the winds of change blowing stronger than ever, convenience store owners must be prepared to adapt, innovate, and seize the opportunities that lie ahead.
Traditionally, convenience stores relied on two major pillars to attract customers: gasoline and tobacco. But as consumer preferences shift, a new star has emerged in the form of food service. Today's convenience stores boast an impressive array of culinary delights, from steaming cups of artisanal coffee to mouthwatering sandwiches, finger-licking chicken, and even delectable sushi and pizza. This expansion into the realm of food has revolutionized the industry and breathed new life into convenience store experiences.
However, the winds of change continue to blow, and now sustainability takes center stage. Customers are increasingly eco-conscious, seeking ways to make a positive impact on the environment through their purchasing decisions. This presents a golden opportunity for convenience store owners to cater to this eco-savvy generation. By offering sustainable and eco-friendly products, such as reusable and recyclable alternatives, convenience stores can tap into the growing demand for environmentally responsible options. It's time to think beyond convenience and embark on a journey of sustainability, making every customer's purchase a step toward a greener future.
The road ahead promises a thrilling adventure for convenience store owners. It's a time to reimagine store layouts, curate irresistible product selections, and create immersive shopping experiences. By embracing change, focusing on sustainability, and leveraging the power of technology, convenience stores have the opportunity to redefine what it means to be truly convenient.
So, buckle up and join us on this exhilarating journey of transformation. Together, let's unlock the full potential of convenience, making each visit to a convenience store a memorable and sustainable experience.

Beer rings are a common sight on store shelves, but they can also be a significant source of plastic waste. Fortunately, there are many ways to reuse and recycle them, from practical to creative. In this blog, we'll explore some fun and practical ideas for repurposing six-pack beer rings.
Have you ever been frustrated by tangled cords and cables? One solution is to use beer rings to keep them organized. Simply wrap cords and cables around the ring, and secure the end in place by tucking it under one of the rings. This method can work well for everything from charging cables to headphone cords.
If you're looking for a quick and easy DIY project, consider making coasters out of six-pack rings. Simply cut the rings apart and stack them together, then glue or sew them in place. You can get creative with the colors and patterns of the rings, or even paint them to match your decor.
Want to attract some feathered friends to your backyard? Use six-pack rings to create a DIY bird feeder. Start by stringing several rings together, then tying them to a tree branch or other support. Fill the rings with birdseed, and watch as your new bird feeder attracts all sorts of winged visitors.
Looking for a unique way to decorate your home? Consider making a wreath out of beer rings. Simply glue or tie the rings together in a circular shape, then add any embellishments you like, such as ribbon or flowers. This project can be a fun way to get creative with colors and patterns.

First detrmine the size of the hammock you are going to make. If you have selected a place to hang the hammock, measure the distance between the two hanging points. The “body” or people part of the hammock should be about half that dimension. The harness that supports the hammock at either end will take up the rest of the length.
A good two- or three-kid size hammock (as shown in the photograph) can be made from 90 six-pack carriers— nine across and ten long. The body of the hammock and the harness are both made at the same time by weaving clothes line through the holes in the plastic carriers. The hammock is woven one lengthwise row at a time. Lay out a single row of carriers to the length of the hammock body you want. Place the carriers lengthwise so that their end “circles” interweave and partially overlap.
Cut a length of clothesline cord a few feet longer than the entire length of the hammock (body and harness). Weave the clothesline the length of the row through the holes in the carrier where they overlap. Weave the cord over, through, under, up, over, through, under, up, Fig. 2. Adjust the clothesline so that there are equal lengths of cord at either end.
Continue to add rows of carriers in the same way until the hammock is the width you want. After the last row, weave another length of clothesline through the circles along each of the two outside edge rows.
Lay the hammock flat and square on the floor. To make the “spreaders” — the devices used to keep the ropes separate from one another— find two flat sticks and cut each of them a few inches longer than the width of the hammock. Place one of the sticks at each end of the hammock body and mark the positions of the ropes on the stick. Drill a hole at each mark down the center of the sticks. The holes should be large enough for the rope to go through easily.
Carefully make a single loop knot on each cord where it leaves the body of the hammock. Do this on both sides of the hammock. Place a spreader at each end of the hammock and thread the ropes in order through the holes in the spreaders.
Push the spreaders up against the knots. Using two more lengths of clothesline cord, weave the end circles of the carriers to the spreader sticks. Tie the cord at each end of the stick, Fig. 3.
Gather the cords at one end of the hammock and bring them together at the end. Tie each cord individually to a large ring, being sure to adjust each cord so that the hammock will lie flat on the floor with no cords kinking. Snip off any excess cord ends.
You can hang the hammock directly to the support eye hooks using “S” hooks, or using two more “S”-hooks and two short lenghts of chain, you can make the hammock height adjustable.
The SIX PACK HAMMOCK requires no maintenance and can be used outdoors year round. IT is strong and safe for adults as well as kids.

If you don't have the time or inclination to repurpose beer rings yourself, consider donating them to a local recycling program or community center. Many organizations are happy to collect and recycle six-pack rings, as they can be turned into all sorts of useful products, such as new packaging materials.
If you choose not to repurpose your six-pack rings, it's crucial to dispose of them properly to prevent them from ending up in oceans and waterways, where they can harm marine life. By cutting them into small pieces and placing them in the recycling bin, or seeking out specialized recycling programs, you can help to reduce the amount of plastic waste that ends up in the environment. So the next time you finish off a six-pack, remember to get creative or recycle responsibly!
Home brewing and St. Patrick's Day go hand in hand! Did you know that the tradition of brewing beer in Ireland dates back centuries? In fact, beer brewing was so important in Ireland that St. Patrick himself was known to have brewed his own beer.
Not only is home brewing a great way to create unique and personalized beer, but it also has several benefits that make it worth trying out. For one, it's a cost-effective option compared to buying expensive commercial beers. Additionally, you have full control over the ingredients, allowing you to customize the beer to your liking.
Home brewing is also a healthier option, as home brewed beer does not contain any preservatives or additives that can be harmful to your health. Plus, you can experiment with different flavors and ingredients to create healthier beer options, such as using organic or gluten-free ingredients.
If you're a beginner in home brewing, don't be intimidated. Start with a simple recipe like the one below and gradually experiment with different ingredients and techniques. You can even join a home brewing club to learn from experienced brewers and meet new people who share the same interest.
Ingredients:
1 gallon of water
1 lb of malted barley
1 oz of hops
1 package of yeast
Instructions:
Heat the water in a large pot until it reaches about 155°F.
Add the malted barley to the pot and stir.
Let the mixture steep for about an hour, stirring occasionally.
Strain the mixture into a clean, sanitized growler or jug.
Add the hops to the growler or jug.
Cover the growler or jug with a sanitized lid and let it sit at room temperature for about a week.
After a week, add the yeast to the growler or jug.
Cover the growler or jug again and let it sit for another week.
After the second week, your beer should be ready to drink!
Home brewing can also be a fun social activity. Invite your friends and family over to help you brew and taste test your beer. It can be a great way to bond and spend quality time together. To make it more festive for St. Patrick's Day, consider adding some green food coloring or shamrock-shaped stickers to your growlers or jugs.
Did you know that St. Patrick's Day is one of the busiest days of the year for beer sales in the United States? Home brewing your own beer is a great way to celebrate this festive occasion while avoiding the crowds at bars and restaurants. Plus, you can create your own unique beer that's perfect for the occasion.
We're still celebrating St Patty's Day! It's not too late to invite your friends over this weekend, grab your favorite green outfit, get creative, and start brewing your own delicious and unique beer for St. Patrick's Day and way beyond! I mean, any day can be a holiday and time to get our beer on!
It's beginning to look a lot like that time of year. For those living in places where the temperature has now dropped significantly, inside activities are becoming the only option. For those who are fortunate enough to still be able to strut around in a t-shirt or possibly a lighter windbreaker, the Holidays are around the corner and it's a perfect time to gather the family around and work on those DIY (Do-it-yourself) projects. We have browsed through the internet for you and found a few super interesting and fun projects you can do with gallon jugs
And how great to be able to give your friends the coolest Fish Pad ever?! Turn your glass growler into an awesome modern aquarium. It is small and sturdy enough to let your tiny humans keep it in their rooms and learn the importance and value for caring for an animal.

The convenience store industry has changed a lot in the past few years and will continue to face more changes in the upcoming years. These changes are only going to accelerate as the American Government's transition to electric vehicles becomes more widespread. This shift away from fossil fuels will have a major impact on how we do business, so convenience store owners need to be prepared for anything.
Historically, the c-store industry has had a few key things working in its favor to attract customers. Gasoline was one of the chief drivers – if you had a car, you needed to stop by a 7-11 or a Speedway store a couple of times a week. Another big draw was tobacco sales; c-stores typically dominated this market segment. In recent years though, food service has become increasingly important in driving business. You can now find coffee, sandwiches, chicken, sushi, and pizza at most convenience stores – and that has been good for business.
The rise of electric vehicles will change the landscape of retail stores, especially those without food service. EV owners will not need to make a trip to the gas station, eliminating the need for these shopping occasions. With third-party delivery becoming more widespread and the likes of Uber Eats, GrubHub, and DoorDash competing for food sales, customers have instant access to a variety of menus. Anything they want can be delivered in under an hour with just a few taps on their phone.
The growth of environmental consciousness amongst customers is an exciting development. It presents new opportunities for businesses to be profitable, but also requires them to adapt their offerings to meet the needs of this new generation. Customers are now more interested in becoming more eco-friendly and having a positive impact on the environment. As the world increasingly moves towards sustainability, it is becoming more and more important for businesses to find ways to be eco-friendly. For the c-store industry, this means finding products to sell that are necessary, money-saving, and can be recycled or reused. It will be an interesting journey to see how this industry develops and changes in the coming years.

We've compiled our favorite cooler bag hacks and have decided to share them with you. These tips almost seem like givens but you'll be surprised that you haven't thought of them yourself. Our insulated cooler bags are an absolute necessity for all your social gatherings or events. They are great to take to your summer picnics but they are on-duty year-round as a reusable food delivery bags and insulated grocery bags. Use these hacks to good use anytime, especially if you live in a year-round warm climate.
1) KEEP IT COOL
Plan ahead. These cooler bags are foldable for storing. Why not store it in the freezer when it’s not in use? Or, if you hadn’t thought about it until now and you have that picnic tomorrow or later today, don’t fret. Just add some ice in there now and give it some time to cool down before you have to pack up everything. The cooler it is, the longer it will keep your items cooled.
2) SIZE MATTERS
If you want to keep your food and drinks cold while you're on the go, packing plenty of ice in your cooler bag is essential and the type or size of ice you use will make a difference. Smaller ice cubes that come straight from your ice maker or from a store will work right away to keep your things colder, but will also melt faster. Putting in a few big slabs in there that won’t melt as quickly will ensure you have ice in your cooler bag as the long, hot day progresses. Consider also keeping the ice contained in a zip lock bag. Even though our cooler bags are waterproof, the dryer you keep it, the longer you’ll get use out of it.
3) MAKE YOUR OWN ICE
Fill balloons or zip lock baggies with water and freeze them into larger slabs of ice. Or freeze some water bottles. This is also something that would need to be planned out ahead of time. But a little foresight will come in handy and your friends will be wondering why they themselves hadn’t thought of such a simple idea.
4) FIND SOME SHADE
The sun is hot and that can cause problems for your ice. Make sure to find some shade for your cooler bag or make your own by draping a towel or blanket over it. By doing this you can help keep your ice from melting too quickly.
5) WRAP IT UP
If you didn’t plan ahead or it was a very last-minute trip and you don’t have any ice on hand, it’s ok! Wrap a thick stack of newspaper around your food (cold OR hot!) before putting it into your cooler bag. Although it won't stay fresh for days, wrapping your food in thick bunches of newspaper will help to insulate it and block out some air and moisture. This can be helpful if you're looking to keep your food fresh for a short period of time or until you can get to the store for some ice.

Hi, I'm Dean. I'm going to show you how to put beverage cans into your 4 can holder.
Make sure you get under there good. See if we start way back here, bring it all the way around, pull your fingers and use the little finger holes get a little stretch. And once you have a part up it'll pop right into there.
Next can just kind of loop it under the edge there. Bring the other edge around and use your finger holes to get to stretch.
There you go.Â
I find easiest to work from the outside edges around towards the middle. So bring it in use two finger holes gives you a stretch. Last one, this was kind of an awkward one but still easy enough to get. Make sure that edges under, work around the outside edge here. Give it a little stretch and use of the finger holes. Stretch it down.Â
Bing bang boom. There you have it. Four cans easily installed.
Hi, I'm Dean. I'm going to show you how to put beverage cans into the six can holder.Â
I like to start in the corner, make sure this edge is underneath the lip of the can. You put that under the lip there, you kind of work around. I like to use the finger holes here to help me. Yeah, the first can will be the hardest so don't worry about that up in stretch it does take a little effort. Once you have a popped in there, see we're good to go.Â
Now we just start slowly moving around, once again to the edge there. Then I work close to the can first to the prior can use a finger holes and bring it in, stretch it around. quite simple.Â
It's a little faster and easier as you go down the row. And bring it in and use that finger hole to get that extra pop in there.Â
First three cans in, bring it around. Once again, underneath, outside edge, then use to finger holes. Pop one more, start here and surrounded there in the finger hole to get this stretch to the last one. This last one is the hardest one. I could start out here and here and kind of bring it outside and leave the inside there because that's where all the strength is for pulling and pop pop. And it's on.Â
Now you have six cans in your beverage holder.
