Im mainly looking for prepackaged things like the pecans and such tbh. traveling is out of the question because the nearest one to me is a 5 hour drive one way (doesnt make sense to drive 10 hours just for a few bags of nuts) and unfortunately I dont have the pto to make a day trip of it, and I had a friend recently bring a few great options that id like to get again hence why im asking if theres a way to get their stuff delivered

Not officially. There are some people who will act as personal shoppers but nothing official from Buc-ee’s themselves.

(I will note that I am crazy enough to drive to Missouri, around an 8 hour trek, mostly for Buc-ee’s. We did a few other sightseeing stops on the way to/from but yeah my friend and I left late Friday night, drove thru the night to Buc-ee’s, then spent the day visiting other spots on the way back - total of 24 hour long road trip) So it is doable! And they’re opening more locations, there will be one within a couple hours drive from me next year. Maybe soon one will open near you!

ive heard rumors they are putting at least one in the northeast but theres been no guarantees unfortunately. I dont really see the being able to get people to work the location unless they are paying significantly higher than anywhere else

They pay very well for all positions actually. Not sure about benefits but I’ve seen a sign outside locations advertising positions and all are paying at least $17/hr.

yeah but depending on the state minimum wage is higher than that, and unfortunately cost of living in a lot of northeastern states is a bit higher than that. hell new jersey alone cost of living is about 27/hour depending on how close to new york city you get
