BREAKING NEWS: Lukoil Going Out Of Business

The Lukoil is going out of business. A sign at their mart said that the store was thirty percent off everything because the store is closing. The clerk inside the Mart said the whole station is closing at the end of January, and something other than a gas station is coming. He didn't know what it will be.  A rumor months ago was that the Starbucks was coming there, with a drive-through, but we don't really know if that is true.
