Yes, I've had a couple of problems since I recommended Walgreens Wolfeboro last year, and I've had to drive to the Ossipee branch. But I'm still not aware of a better place with 30 minutes of...

Thanks, but that's a pretty serious charge, especially since it implies they are leaking gas into the water. Can you provide your source and/or more detail?

I frequent frequent both and would guess that Skelley's is 5X or more the traffic.
