I love the unspoken rule of holding the door for each other at Wawa. I don’t know if it happens at all wawas but I like to believe it does.

Extra points if you hold it for someone comically far away and they do a little jog to reach the door quicker.

Wawa doors are almost impossible to open without backing up anyways you might as well just leave it open for another second

Heard a Wawa executive interviewed on the radio. He said they made a conscious decision not to install automatic door openers just so the customers would have this little courteous interaction with each other. If you stand near a Wawa entrance you'll hear people saying "thank you" to each other hundreds of times per hour.
