I am 65 years old. Stuckey was my first job at 15 until I graduated high school. So many wonderful fun memories. I loved there pecan rolls and all the unusual gifts they had. We had a dogs restroom that had a old tree for the country dogs. For the city dogs there was a fire hydrant. Travelers would take all kinds of pictures of them. They thought it was so funny. Awww memories.

Back in 1969 my mother, sister and I went from Bremen Georgia to Los Angeles California to visit family. We stopped at a Stuckys in Louisiana for gas and a break. After that we stopped at every Stuckys we saw on the way to California, it got to be fun looking for the store's. We did the same comming home. Those were some fun days and great memories.

When we would travel as a family throughout childhood, every southern trip we would stop at Stuckey’s. My Dad loved the pecan logs! After all these years and to still have Stuckeys is wonderful! As a surprise to my parents I ordered several products for Christmas! They were so excited and have been savoring every bite!

One summer we took a road trip from our S.W. Washington (state) home to California. My cousin Bob who was a college student in Oregon came along as our designated driver due to the fact that he wanted to visit a college flame who lived in CA. He and our family of six piled into our Vista Cruiser station wagon and took off. Along the way through Oregon and Northern California we would stop at just about every Stuckey’s we’d see.

He and our family of six piled into our Vista Cruiser station wagon and took off. Along the way through Oregon and Northern California we would stop at just about every Stuckey’s we’d see. Our mom loved the pecan rolls and divinity. Cousin Bob was getting annoyed with all the stops because it delayed him getting to his girl. To this day my siblings and I laugh about us yelling “STUCKEYS!!!” every time we saw their sign in the distance. Our frustrated cousin finally yelled, “NO MORE STUCKEYS!!!” and hit the gas and we drove on by very disappointed. But he wasn’t with us on the drive home so we were once again in Stuckey’s heaven....

I still have my Stuckey's game from the 70's. We use to go on the big 2 week vacation across the country hitting as many states as possible on the way. I would get a charm from every state or a spoon. We would stop at least one in every state

Back when I worked for Canal Barge Co of Natchez MS in the late seventies/early eighties, we had a headstrong cook named Ida Mae Stuckey; She was a great cook & a big talker; Word was that she was divorced from the Stuckey’s founder; I remember the good days of Stuckeys, as I was born 1/1950 @ Clarksville TN; I have driven 3 million miles all around our country in the last 28 years, passing by many Stuckey’s stores; Occasionally I buy pecan logs @ truck fueling stops that carry your products; Glad to see Stephanie keeping the legacy going...

My husband and I through the years of traveling always stopped at a Stuckey's in North Georgia. We had many favorites. Yesterday a dear friend and neighbor of 30 years called, Beth Lamar Monfort, and told me her brother, Bob's son, RG Lamar was reopening Stuckey's. She gave me website and here I am. I am looking over the stock and thinking of what I will order first. I am so thrilled. I am 84 now, a widow, so don't travel much. I will order and have it shipped. Thank you for bringing back an old favorite. You are appreciated.

Stuckey's was a place both my sister & I could not wait to stop at as kids in the backseat of the car when my parents would travel from Spokane, Wa. To Tucson , AZ. to visit my Grandparents. Back in the 70s you would find Stuckey’s off the main Highway s or close to truck stops. The white chocolate covered pretzels was the Family favorite so much so that I recall sometimes after stopping my Dad would stop to get a box of them and about 30 minutes later we’d hear ,” who the hell are all the dam...

Lol Dad eventually got smarter and then started buying 2 boxes 📦 of the fantastic mouth watering white chocolate covered pretzels… So - so good!!! 😊. I sure Miss Stuckey’s and hope they make a big comeback .. The best ever👍... Collapse

I've regrettably only been to Stuckey's once (so far) and that visit was unplanned. In the summer of 1969 our family left our-then home of St. Paul, Minn. en route to visiting relatives in New England. We left early in the morning headed east on I-94. Just over the Wisconsin line our car's radiator began to act funny, so we stopped at the nearest gas station, which just happened to be a Stuckey's in Baldwin WI. We were there about half an hour, and I don't recall us sampling any pecan rolls or anything like that. But it was long... Read more

But it was long enough to get a feel for the place, and I've always wanted to make a return visit. I'm now in Springfield IL, which, long before I moved here, had a Stuckey's just south of town on I-55 (and the old route 66). I hope they come back. Kudos to Stephanie for her tireless efforts to revive the family business and her appreciation of this part of Americana.... Collapse

I was born and raised in a small farming community in central Kansas. In 1959 we traveled to California to visit my Aunt. During our drive, we frequently saw Stuckey's along the roadside and Dad stopped for gas and treats as often as possible. I will never forget this trip and Stuckey's made the long trip extra special. To this day, I still look forward to a pecan log roll and pecan turtles. (Dad's favorites). Every time I have these wonderful sweets, I remember that road trip and the great vacation we all had!

As a child in the '60s, my family would take road vacations, 2 weeks a year, across the country. In those days, if memory serves, most Stuckeys were about a gas tank apart. As we share the name, our dad made a point of stopping at every Stuckeys we saw for cold drinks and treats. We thought this was marvelous. As I recall, you used to get a pecan log or divinity with a fillup. These were rationed by our mom as we headed down the road towards the next Stuckeys. These were wonderful times.

Back in the 60's, highway 66 was our path to fun on vacations. We map out all the Stuckeys along the way. We had a 65 Mercury Monterey 4 door. Stuckeys pecan pralines were the bomb! Always bought some at the checkout cashiers. Enough Squirt and pralines to carry us to the next Stuckey's! Thanks for all the great memories...

My father and mother started as store managers in Houston Texas when I was in 8th grade. My dad was promoted to regional manager and we moved back north. Stuckey's was our life for the next 20 years. Fond memories
