While visiting Cape May, N.J., Kress discovered Exit Zero Filling Station, aptly named given its location off the last exit of the Garden State Parkway. The station features a convenience store and a full-service restaurant, with patio seating.
While in London, Hanson popped into a Tesco Express location. These smaller-format stores serve city dwellers who need groceries, but don’t have a car to pack full of items.
