On rare occasions when the auto liquor locker runs dry, and there are no liquor stores or bars nearby, we will resupply at a station.

Mostly coffee or soft drink, but free ATMs and a clean restroom are also valuable assets of what I consider a good service station, or at least one that's good for my needs.

Mostly use the restroom, but I've bought a few sodas from time to time, if they have something unusual or rare, like the Heritage Dr Pepper I found at a Shell in Oceans Springs, Mississippi the other day.

How come <NONE> is not an option?

I use pay at the pump so I don't have to go inside. What a rip off. Overpriced, crappy stuff I don't need or want. Let alone some of the people who are running these stations... Sheesh.

Of course, the receipts often won't print at the pump, so I still have to go in and complain to get one. UGH!
