The makings of any great adventure begins at any one of the Ole's locations throughout town. Stop in empty handed, and leave with the essentials: burrito, pack of smokes, case of beer, bag of pretzels, Gatorade (for later), full tank of gas and, if the mood strikes you, a really awesome pair of aviators. As with any convenience store, it's Ole's special promotions—like two 32-ounce Xzudes for a buck—that keep our readers stocking up here before every trek out of town. Ole's: Multiple Locations; 721-2170
