John's One StopN5847 Hwy 47Shawano, WI

John's One Stop in Shawano welcomes you to their convenience store, restaurant, laundry and movie-rental center. Yes, it's one-stop shopping! Owners John and Sue Rushsits reminisce on how it all began...

In 1973, John sold restaurant supplies out of a small building. He added a movie rental area to his business, which started the first phase of three additions. He then added a convenience center which lead to gasoline pumps, and a deli to feed hungry customers who were running errands and buying movies. A separate building houses the laundromat, and why not get a tan while you wait for your laundry to finish? Thus, the tanning salon! With Diesel pumps for the big trucks, this is also an ideal stop for truckers passing through.

The Deli offers broasted chicken meals, soups and salads, or grab a quick hotdog with your movie rental. And of course, do not forget your Lottery! The majority of their Lottery sales are on $5 tickets and larger, which gives players a larger top prize to strive for. The store has sold a $10,000 winning ticket and is looking forward to have more wins like that!

With the laundromat located on site, many scratch tickets become the entertainment for customers while they wait for their laundry. Bonus: Former Packers quarterback Brett Favre visits their laundry facility when he is hunting in the area.

John's One Stop is a hot spot for all!

Family-owned and staffed: Sue and John Rusch with daughter Sami Perez.
