Wawa was a popular decision among the both of them. Megan Velez states, “I like wawa because I know it better.” Caitlin Iannetta was asked the same question, her response was, “I like it better because I’ve been there more, It’s closer and more convenient.” Despite the ongoing debate about which convenience store is better, Sheetz and Wawa both offer similar products and convenient prices that people rave about.
