The Wal Mart on US 70 (Glenwood) is not what I'd call "in Durham" since
it's actually within the Raleigh city limits.  The other Wal Mart, the one
in Durham, is not open 24 hours. 

As for Kroger, yes you can go there in the middle of the night to buy 
food, but not prepared food served restaurant-style.

In other words, we have six restaurants that serve truckstop-style food 
to truckstop-style clienteles, but no place that you can go to to get a 
cup of coffee and a sandwich and sit and linger for an hour or two.  Just 
_try_ lingering for an hour or two with your textbooks (note: I am not a 
college student -- I cite this merely as an example) at a Waffle House.  
They'll badger you to vacate the booth the minute you're done eating. :)
