Convenience Store Robbery
24-7 stores, Uncle Jack's Liquor, gas stations. Dynamic store layouts, varying loot, varying witness count.
The Job
Rockstar put this front and center in Trailer 1 (1:08-1:18), so treat it as confirmed: 24-7 stores, Uncle Jack's Liquor, and gas stations scattered across Vice City, Port Gellhorn, and the Leonida Keys. The pitch is the entry-level grind — solo, fast, low ceiling. Two confirmed approaches: loud (gun out, register cleared, sprint) or stealth (no shots, slip out before anyone calls it in). Inference: the loud route reliably pulls police, which fits the 1-3 star band, while a clean stealth pull likely keeps you at the low end or off the radar entirely. The 2-5 min window and small size cap the take — figure 2k-15k GTA$. The variable that swings it, per the record, is the dynamic store layout: varying loot and varying witness count mean the same chain pays differently each visit. More witnesses is inferred to mean faster star escalation. Read this as walking-around money and a heat warm-up, not a score you build a session around.
The estimated 2,000-15,000 GTA$ range tracks a small, solo, sub-five-minute job with only a 1-3 star ceiling — low risk, low floor. The wide spread reflects the record's "varying loot," so the same store chain won't pay the same twice.

Operator Tips
- Run stealth when you can — no shots fired keeps you toward the low end of the 1-3 star band and avoids a chase eating your 2-5 min window.
- Scope the witness count before you commit. The record flags varying witnesses per store; fewer eyes is inferred to mean slower star escalation.
- Going loud is the faster clear but pulls police reliably — line up an exit before you pull the gun, since 1-3 stars on a solo job means you're the only one driving.
- Treat the take as variable. Dynamic layouts and varying loot mean a 24-7 might pay near 2k while another run nears 15k — hit several rather than banking on one.
- No crew to organize: this is solo-only per the record, so the only prep is a vehicle and a route out of Vice City, Port Gellhorn, or the Keys.
FAQ
How much does the Convenience Store Robbery pay?
Estimated 2,000-15,000 GTA$ per hit. It's a small solo job, so the floor is low and the take varies — the record notes dynamic layouts and varying loot, meaning the same store won't pay the same each time. Treat the figure as a pre-release estimate.
Can I do it solo and stealthy?
Yes on both. The confirmed crew role is solo, and both loud and stealth approaches are documented. A clean stealth pull is inferred to keep you toward the low end of the 1-3 star police response — or off the radar entirely.
What crew do I need?
None. This is a solo job per the heist record — no crew roles required. The only prep is a getaway vehicle and an exit route from Vice City, Port Gellhorn, or the Leonida Keys.
