As an American, for a moment I thought they were debating one of the checkout packets of MnMs (the ~3oz size) for $6.70 or $9.00 and I was like "holy fuck inflation in Australia must be insane..." Then I went back to the picture and it was the ~10oz big bag, which at $9 AUD is $6 USD. That's grocery store pricing here. A convenience store for those bags is like $8 USD or $12 AUD.
As a South Aussie, not wrong. Although it's more so OTR (On the Run) which is at basically most BP service stations. Owned by the parent company Peregrine who does OTR, Krispy Kreme, Smokemart, and sometimes you can see a HJs, Oportos or Subway in their servos. They're dominant in the SA Market and basically was able to shut down 7 Eleven from opening. They have spread into Victoria as well so have fun Melbourne.
They've also just signed a contract with another megacorp so their OTR brand can go national so say goodbye to Coles Express servos as they will become OTR branded now owned by parent company Viva Energy. They'll be popping up in the Eastern States in no time. Shahin Empire global domination continues!
They have recently started opening up stores in Perth as well, the signing of that contract will only exacerbate the plague that is Peregrine and Mr Shahin.
Im pretty sure the Shahins play Arabic Sith music where ever they go. Worked at OTR.. Did get the vibe I was going to get force choked if I didn't sign up to their shoddy Cert program
Jordies, I have to admit something - I have a bit of a problem with sausage rolls. When I used to rent a place near a 7/11, I would go there almost every day for one specific item: their cheese and bacon sausage roll. I know, I know, it's not exactly gourmet cuisine, but I just couldn't resist it. And if they were out of the warm ones, I'd even ask for a cold one to cook at home. Over time, I got to know the manager of the store and we developed a bit of a rapport. She would often put a sausage roll aside for me and even bend the rules a bit to sell me cold products. I was a regular customer, after all! So when I saw some negative reviews about 7/11 sausage rolls, I had to speak up. In a world that's all about cutting costs and maximizing profits, the humble sausage roll has taken a hit. Brands like Mrs Mac's and Four and Twenty just don't cut it anymore - the quality of their ingredients and flavors has suffered. As someone who eats a lot of sausage rolls (like, a lot), I can confidently say that 7/11's bacon and cheese sausage roll is the best one out there. Sure, it's mass-produced, but it's still delicious. To whoever wrote those negative reviews, I have to ask - what's your problem? It's just a sausage roll! Maybe you need to reevaluate your priorities and appreciate the simple pleasures in life.
@@kanggvng Hey there, friend. I wanted to reach out and check on you. I noticed that you got pretty worked up over a simple comment about sausage rolls, and I wanted to make sure you're doing okay. It's okay to feel frustrated or upset, but lashing out at others isn't the best way to deal with those emotions. Whatever is going on in your life right now, know that there is support for you. People who can support you and help you work through any darkness that might be hanging over you. You're not alone, and together we can get through anything. So please don't hesitate to reach out if you need someone to talk to or just a friendly ear to listen. Stay strong, my friend. 7/11 Sausage Roll Ambasador
I met a lovely Indian girl that worked at 7/11. She actually had a fake name tag made up for her because when it was her real first name (only first) - Indian customers kept managing to track her down on social media and sent her weird messages.
Adelaide person here - the chain is called On The Run, and is run by an extremely wealthy Palestinian family. I went to school with one of them. Apparently they are beginning colonisation attempts of WA - 7/11 beware
It's gotta be "Worst supermarkets in Australia". No specifics on brand, could be some real gnarly ones in the absolute northern "far north queensland".
Not 7/11 but back in the day where I worked in a servo/cafe (cafe is a strong word but we sold coffee & food & they called it a cafe) on night shift, the long chats with the town drunks were the only thing that made that shit bearable.
@@StormHawksHD. What did they say? I can't see the original comment (some weird thing that happens with UA-cam sometimes, and I still haven't figured out why). EDIT: Never mind, I just noticed the comment was from 3 months ago (I'm guessing it was about Chris Minns winning the NSW election).
I *think* that the "illegal immigrants" person was actually trying to say that they were working beyond the allowed hours per their visa and/or that 7-11 was illegally taking advantage of immigrants because they don't know the laws. Just the 14 hours a day part and the fact that 7-11 had to pay back wages a little while ago makes me think that might have been what they were getting at.
The guy that works at the 7/11 near me is super nice, he gives all the high school kids that are regulars free stuff, granted the free stuff is 2 days away from being expired.
As a South Australian, the closest we have is On The Run, which is basically off-brand 7/11. Funnily enough, there's also an American On The Run convenience store chain, which I have to imagine is _also_ off-brand 7/11.
I love how they looked at the price tag, went back to look at the price tag, took a photo of it and uploaded and NOT ONCE did they read that it was for something else. Typical Aussie consumer.
South Australian here, 7/11 doesn't exist here because the family that owns the BP's also owns OTRs, which they pay the state government (Liberal or Labor) stupid amounts of money to be the sole 24/7 stores in the state.
Fun fact, the 7-Elevens in Taiwan actually carry some pretty good food and serve consistently good coffee! Back home in America though they’re pretty much bottom tear quality

Not sure what you have in Australia, but i work in a hardware store in Sweden and the reviews we get are golden. From a lady upset we didn’t pay her medical bill when she climbed up on a ladder to reach something and fell (rather than ask staff for help) To a political journalist angry at me because we were going to file a vandalism report against him when he went into the store and started tearing up product packaging and leaving the items on different spots in the store. (pretty sure he was going to steal but i kept a look on him in case he tried to pocket the items so instead he just dumped them offseveral isles away) You should have some hardware store in Australia that should have equally good stories.

Pretty sure the place you were talking about in Adelaide is On The Run, so named because if you attempt to interrupt their stranglehold you have 30 days to leave the state before you get taken and transferred to Tassie for some Risdon Time.
OMG i would love to do this and yeah, 80% of the interactions are fine, but that other 20% are pure bogan/brain-dead zombies. Unforntally this would not be something current Services Australia workers could do, as when you become a public servant you have to sign the APS Values and Code of Conduct, basically a government NDA to protect private client information. I know a few ex-coworkers that violated this even after anomaizing the data and still got fired.
As someone who worked at 7 11 many many years ago in the days when they still had the hot dog on rollers machine, to kill the time you would just leave them there until they were so cooked they would stop spinning and then just a waiting game to see who was desperate enough to buy it. Many good times were had there
Victorian here, Pub Staff confession: Had a bar with multiple Taps (Both Beer and Non-Alcoholic Beverages) with mould growing through them, that apparently had been known about for some time, as well as a good build up of the stuff in the middle dry storage area where we kept things like Lollies, Chocolates, Jelly, etc. Multiple drinks in the Bottle-O held onto past their expiry date, cans with E.D's scoured off them, always put in the "convenience" fridge near the door, and quite often, bugs in the food.
I’ve found only a tiny portion of bad google reviews are actually a genuine reflection of the place/product. Most are just nagging Karen’s and Kens who don’t get their way because they literally wanted service like that provided to the Royal Family.
If you look above the price tag for the $6.70 M&M's (at 1.55 and 4.47) , it's actually for a packet of Mars Smores Pods, not M&M's. Having said that, whoever stocked the shelves can't read labels either and put them in the wrong place
The reason why the M&Ms are coming up a different price is because that $6.70 tag is for a different product. Someone might have accidently put restocked the wrong rack, but more likely is someone swapped the price tag around hoping for a discount but was too stupid to realise it has the product name in the tag. The guy at the register realised this and knew/assumed the people trying to buy the M&Ms at the fake shelf price did it and that is why he kicked them out and cited his Law Degree studies. The $6.70 product is the 160 gram MARS bar pods (little wafer bite filled with mars bar filling). The M&Ms shown in the photo is the 380 gram Peanut M&Ms which cost $7 at Woolies, so $9 at 7-ELEVEN is expected due to fuel station mark ups. The person complaining was most likely rigged this in the first place and got upset when their scam didn't work.
Imagine living in a food desert, and all you have to eat is $2 bananas, crappy $1 sausage rolls, $7 M&M and a hotdog that has been spinning in spot for months.. Deeply depressing.
The guy who studied law probably said that in response to the customer saying they had to honour the price on the shelf. I also studied law (lol) and the advertised price is called an offer to treat, no contract is formed until the cashier accepts the offer the customer is making of the posted price. Although shops may do so because they chose to.
Imagine using the bathroom at a 7-11. Let alone a service station more than once 😂 lmao. If you use them regularly and are mad that they're always dirty, there's something wrong with you
When I was 13 I was walking home and wanted a slurpee. I only had 2 dollars no card etc. When disposing of the plastic wrapper my straw was in waiting to buy it I dropped my 2 dollars in the bin.. as I had no money as a nervous teen the cashier made me search the bin in front of other customers. I never found the 2 dollars but got a free slurpee
As a former 7-11 employee (Stateside), this gave me Apocalypse Now level flashbacks.... I am currently monologing in the dark with that single beam of light across my eyes. "The Slurpees.... the Slurpees!"
The food complaints, my brother worked through uni at servos, trust me when I tell you you are taking your life in you hands if you decide to feed on items from those pie warmers.
In the early 80s I lived in Carlton in a disused shop on Nicholson Street opposite the Blue Bird Café. The owner of the Blue Bird Café was a guy called Shifty who sold ouzo under the counter. A woman called May used to make the burgers. I remember that she looked like a cadaver and that she had a large weeping sore on her forehead. Anyway, a 7-Eleven opened up down the road - it must've been one of the first 7-Elevens in Melbourne. It was only operational for a few months before it mysteriously blew up. We never saw Shifty again.
BS, no way Jordy's first language is Croatian....couldn't think I could love Jordan Shanks anymore than I already do, but there ya go, another notch higher on the bro-mance meter.

Remember that old adage, "you get what you pay for?" Pay your service staff next to nothing, you get next to no service. It's a business model designed from the ground up to be a bad experience for everyone involved.
It's actually an incredible relief to know there are 711s that actually give them away because my mum went to get a pastie the other day and was horrified that they were emptying the pie heater directly into the fucking bin and they blockadeed her from getting to what she wanted while they were doing it and could easily have given her, or some of the ever more people I see living in fucking tents in Melbourne, one. 🥲
CLOSE: in SA we have these Lebanese brothers that own all the "On The Run" kwiki-mart style 7/11-esque shops in the state that are rumoured to have mafia connections that suffocate all competition.
Never had a problem, with the 2 local 7/11 ‘s especially when we are playing India in cricket, if we are winning they politely ignore me , and if loosing they give it back in droves lol. Great bunch
I can't believe you brought up WA's attempted secession. I'm gonna write a strongly-worded letter about this and send it to Parliament so they can ignore that document too.
That first one though - if the 'impolite man' had ACTUALLY studied law, he'd know about the ACCC and the price scanning Code of Practice which most supermarkets agree to abide by - which meant that technically, they should have gotten that packet of M&Ms for free
I’ve never been allowed to use a toilet in a 7/11. Has the policy changed? Try to buy your stuff in daylight hours at shops that are competing with each other, and prices are therefore not “abnormally” high. Not a 7/11 story, but man! Many years ago passing through Brisbane, I bought a pie from a milk bar; when I tried to eat it (back on the road unfortunately) there was only a hard, thin residue of what remained of whatever the original constituents were, and despondently donated it to landfill. One star. Grrr.

The weirdness of the ACT goes even further , it includes a part of Jervis Bay that has 2 villiages and the naval college HMAS Creswell .
As a proud Adelaidian, I don't know any "Corner Store Queen", but we do have a shit ton amount of On The Run's here.
Sounds like a diarrahoea shop.
Just remember Jordan is from Sydney.......the centre of the universe.....his researchers should be forced to eat expired sausage rolls......
likewise, never heard of a corner store queen either...
Ampol however have taken over a portion of the smaller servo's, seems to be otr's only competition.
@@nvmyutube Ampol are rebranded (back from) Caltex. So it’s actually a good thing as Ampol is (at least originally) is Australian.
Better at Ampol than BP or Shell.
Today I learned AUS has states, fake states, and $9 M&M's. Wow. Learnin' everyday!
Working nights in America has the added perk of watching Jordy as he comes out!
2:22 “I know what trigonometry is why do I have to wear this stupid hat” the most humbling part of the university experience and arguably one of the most necessary to keep the ego in check.
Jordies is the type of Aussie to say "he's standing right behind me, isnt he" in a horror scenario, pull out a snake from pants and dominate the antagonist
This comment is about 400% funnier when you realise Jordan actually owns a snake.
I'd watch that
please tell me your not australian
stop
@@TotoDG a penis snake?
Pretty sure the place you were talking about in Adelaide is On The Run, so named because if you attempt to interrupt their stranglehold you have 30 days to leave the state before you get taken and transferred to Tassie for some Risdon Time.
Petition for centrelink workers to tell their worst encounters....
OMG i would love to do this and yeah, 80% of the interactions are fine, but that other 20% are pure bogan/brain-dead zombies. Unforntally this would not be something current Services Australia workers could do, as when you become a public servant you have to sign the APS Values and Code of Conduct, basically a government NDA to protect private client information. I know a few ex-coworkers that violated this even after anomaizing the data and still got fired.
ive worked on the phones for centrelink, oh boy, they make these videos seem super tame
11:42 that person is talking out of their arse with that 25-year customer rubbish because 7-Eleven only became a thing in WA about two years ago.
Ain't that always the way with Karens?
I’ve been completely scammed out of my requested worst law firms 😂
Love how no one noticed the 6.70 m&ms were in fact, a price tag for pods that the customer has misread.
"I got hit by a Bus" a fellow Isekai Fan trying to brag.
“Is It Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a 7/11” is the hottest anime this season
As someone who worked at 7 11 many many years ago in the days when they still had the hot dog on rollers machine, to kill the time you would just leave them there until they were so cooked they would stop spinning and then just a waiting game to see who was desperate enough to buy it. Many good times were had there
I really wish eBay had a comment system, i would love to see Shane commenting on Kate who just sniped something "cheeky bastard, that was my hoover"

Me, an American: "Like the test?"
Based on my experience and customer interactions from working at BWS... you should absolutely review worst BWS' in the country
Victorian here, Pub Staff confession:
Had a bar with multiple Taps (Both Beer and Non-Alcoholic Beverages) with mould growing through them, that apparently had been known about for some time, as well as a good build up of the stuff in the middle dry storage area where we kept things like Lollies, Chocolates, Jelly, etc.
Multiple drinks in the Bottle-O held onto past their expiry date, cans with E.D's scoured off them, always put in the "convenience" fridge near the door, and quite often, bugs in the food.
ewww 🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢

I won't go into the food practices of the kitchen...
I’ve found only a tiny portion of bad google reviews are actually a genuine reflection of the place/product. Most are just nagging Karen’s and Kens who don’t get their way because they literally wanted service like that provided to the Royal Family.
Who wants to be served like an inbred German!?!
As a south Australian, I have never heard of this mythical corner store he mentioned
If you look above the price tag for the $6.70 M&M's (at 1.55 and 4.47) , it's actually for a packet of Mars Smores Pods, not M&M's. Having said that, whoever stocked the shelves can't read labels either and put them in the wrong place
The reason why the M&Ms are coming up a different price is because that $6.70 tag is for a different product.
Someone might have accidently put restocked the wrong rack, but more likely is someone swapped the price tag around hoping for a discount but was too stupid to realise it has the product name in the tag. The guy at the register realised this and knew/assumed the people trying to buy the M&Ms at the fake shelf price did it and that is why he kicked them out and cited his Law Degree studies.
The $6.70 product is the 160 gram MARS bar pods (little wafer bite filled with mars bar filling).
The M&Ms shown in the photo is the 380 gram Peanut M&Ms which cost $7 at Woolies, so $9 at 7-ELEVEN is expected due to fuel station mark ups.
The person complaining was most likely rigged this in the first place and got upset when their scam didn't work.
Imagine living in a food desert, and all you have to eat is $2 bananas, crappy $1 sausage rolls, $7 M&M and a hotdog that has been spinning in spot for months.. Deeply depressing.
The guy who studied law probably said that in response to the customer saying they had to honour the price on the shelf. I also studied law (lol) and the advertised price is called an offer to treat, no contract is formed until the cashier accepts the offer the customer is making of the posted price. Although shops may do so because they chose to.
Imagine using the bathroom at a 7-11. Let alone a service station more than once 😂 lmao. If you use them regularly and are mad that they're always dirty, there's something wrong with you
right? Most people only use a service station bathroom when they're in dire need
How about restaurants you're unlikely to take your cousin on a date to?
Tasmania: NOOoOoOO
When I was 13 I was walking home and wanted a slurpee. I only had 2 dollars no card etc. When disposing of the plastic wrapper my straw was in waiting to buy it I dropped my 2 dollars in the bin.. as I had no money as a nervous teen the cashier made me search the bin in front of other customers. I never found the 2 dollars but got a free slurpee
In case no one's done the PSA yet: The 7-11 at 7:56 is Toowong, and it has recently permanently closed. Kinda wild ngl.
How about the worst reviews for Sexyland or The Reject Shop? I could imagine the Sexyland in Campbelltown alone would be very revealing.
Thanks for the dog turd picture i was eating chocolate cereal 💀
As a former 7-11 employee (Stateside), this gave me Apocalypse Now level flashbacks.... I am currently monologing in the dark with that single beam of light across my eyes. "The Slurpees.... the Slurpees!"
You should share one or two of them for me.
The food complaints, my brother worked through uni at servos, trust me when I tell you you are taking your life in you hands if you decide to feed on items from those pie warmers.
With the amount of impressions, riffs and simpsons quotes Jordies does. He and Nick Mullen NEED to meet
the mulldog would just tell him to shut up and call him gay most likely
Just met Kristo on a flight back to Sydney, keep up the good work boys!
In the early 80s I lived in Carlton in a disused shop on Nicholson Street opposite the Blue Bird Café. The owner of the Blue Bird Café was a guy called Shifty who sold ouzo under the counter. A woman called May used to make the burgers. I remember that she looked like a cadaver and that she had a large weeping sore on her forehead. Anyway, a 7-Eleven opened up down the road - it must've been one of the first 7-Elevens in Melbourne. It was only operational for a few months before it mysteriously blew up. We never saw Shifty again.
Y is that
BS, no way Jordy's first language is Croatian....couldn't think I could love Jordan Shanks anymore than I already do, but there ya go, another notch higher on the bro-mance meter.
What's the rarest thing in the world? An Aussie working at 7/11.
Saw some in Newcastle. Couldn't believe it.
jordie please talk about the vaping ban, i have family that owns vaping stores and have for years, have never sold nicotine etc, and they’re being forced to close stores, fire employees etc and this is going to put more smokers back into smoking, please bring awareness to this and call out the government. we need people with a platform.
What is worse is that a lot of people don't know how to use a frozen drinks machine.
Still waiting for The Worst Hungry Jacks stores in Australia.... This is well overdue
It'd be too hard, like comparing pieces of shit together
Can we chuck in Maccas & KFC just for a comparison? 😂
Remember that old adage, "you get what you pay for?"
Pay your service staff next to nothing, you get next to no service.
It's a business model designed from the ground up to be a bad experience for everyone involved.
And here I am, my local 7/11 gives me free sausage rolls all the time 🤣 but they actually cook them properly and check the expiration dates.
It's actually an incredible relief to know there are 711s that actually give them away because my mum went to get a pastie the other day and was horrified that they were emptying the pie heater directly into the fucking bin and they blockadeed her from getting to what she wanted while they were doing it and could easily have given her, or some of the ever more people I see living in fucking tents in Melbourne, one. 🥲
@@plaidshirt9955 only threw up once from one of thier sausage rolls 🤣
‘25 year customer’ (first store opened in Perth in 2014) lel
No matter where in the world, if you buy convenience store food that's from under a heat lamp, you're asking for it.
7/11 being terrible is some we can universally agree on
I'm afraid the Japanese might disagree
Me as a german never having gone to 7/11: it is?
“The other Queensland” should be Victoria’s license plate slogan
I didn't realise it until he said it
South Australia has 'On The Run,' or OTR; a highly controversial family own it, you should look into their history..
Why are they controversial?
CLOSE: in SA we have these Lebanese brothers that own all the "On The Run" kwiki-mart style 7/11-esque shops in the state that are rumoured to have mafia connections that suffocate all competition.
Never had a problem, with the 2 local 7/11 ‘s especially when we are playing India in cricket, if we are winning they politely ignore me , and if loosing they give it back in droves lol. Great bunch
we are not the 9/11 guys but the 7/11 guys he he
I can't believe you brought up WA's attempted secession.
I'm gonna write a strongly-worded letter about this and send it to Parliament so they can ignore that document too.
I dunno... im on the side of the 7/11 shop worker... The price tag is not for M&Ms. Unless they are called POD smores now?
That first one though - if the 'impolite man' had ACTUALLY studied law, he'd know about the ACCC and the price scanning Code of Practice which most supermarkets agree to abide by - which meant that technically, they should have gotten that packet of M&Ms for free
The ACCC also recognises that Mars Pods are not, in fact, the same as M&M's and their pricing doesn't apply to completely different products.
Just when you think jordys snout couldn't get any bigger that bloody thing starts growing off the side lmao
I’ve never been allowed to use a toilet in a 7/11. Has the policy changed?
Try to buy your stuff in daylight hours at shops that are competing with each other, and prices are therefore not “abnormally” high.
Not a 7/11 story, but man! Many years ago passing through Brisbane, I bought a pie from a milk bar; when I tried to eat it (back on the road unfortunately) there was only a hard, thin residue of what remained of whatever the original constituents were, and despondently donated it to landfill.
One star. Grrr.
You should do worst chemist warehouses, I’ve sure there are some bad ones out there

no idea how i found this absolute masterpiece of Australian Man that is Jordan but im so glad im here now. America loves you! or i do anyway, n im american n since im american i can speak for all of america in a youtube comment section.
I worked at admiral and had to clean bathrooms when they say dirty and feral they only see it after it's cleaned, usually it's unflushed, piss everywhere, sometimes water still running, toilet paper holder broken, etc
THE LORD HAS GRACED US WITH HIS PRESENCE ONCE AGAIN
Sandgate Queensland wont let you use the loo i bought a bloody slurpee
As a retail worker, random 7/11 employees are my new heroes.
Youve gotta do worst schools in australia such as the fanous Wyong High School.
Hey you leave Wyong out of this
@@jakesponberg2363 As someone who likes in wyongs surrounding suburbs, I can nominate wyong as the worst suburb on the coast.
If you're fond of knives though, you can always find yourself at the end of one in Wyong. So swings and roundabouts really
Midway through the stumbling and unintelligible review I got an ad that started with, "How old is your brain?" and it just felt appropriate.
This is the content I watch friendlyjordies for
"The customer is usually wrong" Its almost as if the people working at the damn place might know more about the damn place
Lol of course the customer always thinks their right when the mnms are in the wrong rack under mats pods!!
That laugh at 3:50 was so deep and real. I could feel how much he was actually cramping🤣🤣🤣
The amount I can relate to just about everything in these videos as a US citizen is insane.
Honestly, if possible, I think worst schools could be a fun idea. Parents and frustrated university students always have some pretty great banter.
Do a whole video on Wollongong. We deserve it!
Gong or wrong
7/11 continued to rip me off in every visit across 5 different towns now I refuse to buy anything from there
JORDIES! Jordan Shanks! This has gone on long enough! You MUST get a Warhammer 40k tattoo! You promised at 1 million subs! I demand it!
