7-Eleven

East Haven, CT store
7 Eleven recently acquired Speedway a year after they got Sunocos retail operations (just as Speedway did the same for Hess and a few years back and Express Mart not too long ago).  This will bring 7 Eleven to areas it has never been before or have few stores.  Sunoco A Plus have 7 Eleven products already, but still have the old guard on them (it took time for Sunoco to absorb Atlantic in 1993).  In some communities, there will be overlap, so some may be sold to other chains so they're not close together.  The Speedway in Camillus could become a Tops Express as a Tops is right there.  It could also be done at the Moyers Corners Sunoco with Speedway up NY 31, or across from Shop City in Syracuse.  After the Sunoco purchase, 7 Eleven had fewer stores in CNY than Stewarts Shops.  A former 7 Eleven/Wilson Farms on the north side a mile from Shop City is an indie cornershop now.
Until both chains are gone, North Syracuse, downtown segueing into the north side, and the west side are the only ones that are true 7 Elevens in the immediate area, with Auburn and Cortland in the region.
