  For a while in the 80s and 90s, we had a rival 7-11 chain called 6-12, with similar font and color scheme.

    the rivals I remember were the Circle K

    I wonder what it means but I don’t care enough to look it up…

      Strange things are afoot at the Circle K.

    That must have been a regional thing. I don’t remember 6-12 at all.

  DYK 7-11 was named such because if was open 7am to 9pm.

    I figured it was because it was open 7 days a week for 11 hours per day…

    Southland Corporation changed the stores’ name to 7-Eleven in 1946 to reflect their expanded hours of operation (7 a.m. to 11 p.m.).

      11 hours a day would be 7 AM to 6 PM

    7am to 9pm is 14 hours.

      Pardon meant 11pm, Freudian slip.

  7-11 has the best cookies. Do NOT pass up those 6 count boxes next to the register, they are the best commercial cookies in existence, and they’re only $3.49. A store owner once told me they ship them in from a big cookie factory in NY that has a great reputation. Not all stores carry them, but when I see them, I ALWAYS buy a box of chocolate chips.

  The last N in 7-eleven’s logo is lowercase, so this is legally distinct.
