Skelly's on a Saturday night.....

Lakesrider · 08-15-2009, 08:52 PM

Man! You could have set up a booth and collected money just to sit and watch Skellys parking lot action tonight. I thought Hannafords was bad. I pulled in, or tried to... get a lottery ticket. Finally got a parking spot, got out, but once I looked inside the line had to be 20 deep all the way to the beer coolers. Yikes....
Must be nice to be making money these days.....

I wish I would have known though. I would have stopped at the other Moultonborough store. Only two cars there.

Skellys has been doing even more business since they expanded. They are also the only place to buy gas if you are launching in Suissevale or States Landing.

You mention the "other" Moultonboro store, but I am not sure which one you mean. neither Hometown nor JoJos sell gas whereas both Rob's and Murphy's do.

I thought I saw the pumps on and prices back on the sign the other day at Hometown? Anyone else see this? Maybe the heat was getting to me

I saw them getting them ready last week and the signs are back up. Diesel was a little pricy though I am not sure about the gas prices.

I sure wish Skelley's would fix their pumps. It takes too long to pump which causes a back-up. This has been an ongoing problem.

Untill the tanks have been filled and pumped out once or twice. Those tanks have been sitting with nothing in them.

My husband or myself are at Skellys 1-3 times a week getting gas. Never a problem with pumping the gas. The Debit/CC part at the pump can take a minute or so but still faster then driving to Greens,Fullers or RH Irving. The only slow part at Skelly's is the customer that pulls in with a biga$$ boat and takes up one whole side of the pump plus an exit area near the sign. Then,they don't move out of the way. They go in and go "shopping'.
