Haffners-Old Country Store
Demolishing buildings on the corner. Thanks Laconia Daily Sun. What's next for the property. Paper didn't say.
Also noticed Agway is now TruValue. Will miss the Agway name. Big fish swallow little fish. |

I believe a new gas station and pump layout are going in that location.
And while True Value purchased Agway, the rebranding I believe is the choice of the owner... which is the same family that owned the Agway. |

The Agway became TruValue a very long time ago, when the Agway brand went away. While the Agway brand has come back, the store is still TruValue. However we still refer to it as the Agway store. It still carries the same items like grain, seed potatoes, garden tools, seeds, and Carharrt clothing. Alan |

Thanks
Appreciate the updates.
Good to know the TruValue is still family owned. The Agway name goes back a long way. |

Probably changed it to show more of a hardware flair.
We purchased their Home Center, and Tractor Supply opened right next door. |

A Lot Of Stuff Coming
Quote:
The Dunkin's will have two drive-thru lanes rather than one, one will be a traditional drive-thru lane and the second one will be for pickup for those who ordered ahead online. They will be able to stack up to 22 cars in the drive-thru. The convenience store will also be there, but I think there was talk about a third business being there - maybe a pizza joint - but I can't confirm it. The new Haffner's is slated to open in May, and seeing the progress being made I'd have to say May is quite doable. They just finished shingling the roof the other day and have started putting up the stone facade on the outside. |

Haffner's non-ethanol 91-octane gasoline
So, the Haffner's on Route 25 in Moultonborough has non-ethanol, 91-octane gasoline which is especially good in snowblowers that become dormant while waiting the next snow.
This Haffner's 91-octane, non-ethanol gasoline ..... www.kbb.com/car-advice/gasoline-guide/ ..... costs $4.55/gal and it will make a Troy-Bilt run like an Ariens, the King of Snow. So, will this new Haffner's in Gilford be selling non-ethanol, 91-octane gasoline or you need to go to Moultonborough, or what?

Coming Along Nicely
I've been keeping an eye on the construction of the new Haffner's and it is coming along nicely.
Concrete has been poured for the new gas pump pads. The exterior of the new building looks to be complete and I am assuming the interior work is continuing apace. The new signs were delivered earlier this week. (I saw them on a truck when I was on my way home from work.) I figure paving in and around the gas pumps is likely to take place very soon as it looks like they've been prepping the ground for paving. I'm hoping the May opening someone mentioned is still possible, maybe Memorial Day weekend? We'll have to wait and see. |

Haffner's
Is Haffner's rated top tier gas? It is very important if you have turbo motors. I had been using Cumbies for years until I bought an Audi. I found out the fuel injections need deep cleaning and there was carbon buildup. Switch to Mobil with Shaw's loyalty to keep the gas bill down, and the problems disappear.
Donkies was owned by Caffula, a sleazeball Francise developer. Has that changed?

But did I see that this would be a "drive in only" site?

In The Beginning...
I believe that might be the case at the beginning so they can get the place up and running. After all, they don't need to have the interior complete top to bottom in order to service just drive-thru. Besides, the interior space is too large to be "just a drive-thru."
