Downtown businesses accept Flex
October 2, 2014
Students take up a majority of Cheney, because of this, many stores off campus choose to accommodate to Eagle Flex. Most are located right off campus.
Located on F Street there is Owl Pharmacy and the Hoot Boutique, which both accept flex. Owl Pharmacy is one of the more popular to accept Eagle Flex cards because they accept flex to purchase anything from their school supplies to prescriptions.
“We get quite a bit of students in here every day that use their flex cards on lots of different things,” Kevin Olson, an Owl Pharmacy employee, said.
Also located on F Street is The Mason Jar Café and Bistro. This is a very popular place for students to do their homework, meet for lunch and maybe attend the Cafe’s music sessions on Thursday nights. The Mason Jar serves breakfast, lunch and even wines. They use all local ingredients and make their dishes homemade.
“We try to accommodate to the students as best we can,” Douglas Labar, an employee of The Mason Jar, said in response to why they chose to accept Eagle Flex.
Just a few blocks down, located on First Street is Imperial Styling, a nail and hair salon which also accepts Eagle Flex.
Heading the opposite direction, still located on First Street is Mitchell’s Harvest Foods. A grocery store and gas station that also accepts flex.
Also very popular to college students is Rosa’s Pizza, which accepts Eagle Flex and delivers free to students.
Other places that accept Eagle Flex are Creative Touch, Bruchi’s Cheese Steaks and Subs, Carl’s Jr., Domino’s Pizza, El Rodeo Mexican Restaurant, Rokko’s Teriyaki, Subway and ZIP’s Drive-In.
When looking for a place to spend your Eagle Flex money, keep these off-campus places in mind, most are just a walk down the street away from campus.
