      They are super friendly and have an awesomely large selection of drinks. They have bigger than usual Arizona's, lots of candies for cheap, and the cashier is always nice and super helpful. Their cigarillos are also cheaper than 7-Eleven's and other places I've been to in the area which is nice. Their stuff isn't overpriced (or at least the items I've bought) so you leave feeling like you got your money's worth.

      Been going here for almost 6 months so might as well give them their first review. To start, it's a 24/7 corner store so of course their items will be a bit more expensive than say a Tony's or Walmart. I find them to be cheaper than 7/11 at least when it comes to the items I buy such as snacks and beer. It's also much cleaner. Secondly, the employees for the most part are friendly. You get a lot of drunks and deadbeats coming into this JJ Peppers (typical of a lot of 24/7 stores) so if you're a paying customer whose not looking to cause any trouble then they'll treat you well. Finally, this store is in a strip with three restaurants (including a 24/7 subway) and for some reason that makes it feel safer to me than if it was a stand alone store. Overall, JJ Peppers is a great place to hit up when everything else is closed. You could certainly do a lot worse, even during normal business hours.
