Confident Customer Service REGULAR DRIVE-THROUGH KYLA MARTIN L&T/Features Co-Editor

Just before downtown Gas City ends, take a sharp left into the white cement garage. Look to your right, and you’ll see everything from pretzels, condiments and chips to dish soap, coal and toothpaste. The garage once functioned as a car shop called “Happy’s,” so locals Bo and Robin Chapman dropped a “C” in front and called it their own just a couple weeks shy of a year ago. This drive-through convenience store means never leaving your car or Gas City for snacking, baking and cleaning needs. “It definitely gets pretty busy in here,” said Blake Chapman, 21, son of Bo and Robin. Blake Chapman has experienced a few carloads of Taylor students this year. “They’re usually smiling and laughing,” Chapman said. “I guess because they’re not used to this.” Chappy’s, at 157 W. Main St., is the first of its kind in the area. Anyone can simply drive or walk in, say what he or she wants and an employee brings it out. “Some old ladies come through here, just out of the shower . . . so no one will see them,” said Chapman. “With their hair in a towel,” said employee Whitney Owens, 22.
