Customers of the affected Pak-A-Sak stores will need to find an alternative during closure windows of up to three days. Once converted, those locations will operate as Casey's General Stores.
The takeaway
Customers planning to shop at a Pak-A-Sak location should check the schedule for their store, since each closes for up to three days during the conversion to Casey's.
What happens next
Store conversions are scheduled to continue through November 20, 2026, with the final closure group set for that window.
