Title: Kwik-E-Mart
Post by: LostInReno on July 09, 2007, 04:35:20 AM
I know I keep posting aboutThe Simpson's but there are 11 major cities that are taking a convienient store and transforming it into the kwik-e-mart. Has anyone seen it yet? I am really jealous of anyone who checks it out.

My brother just checked out the one in Seattle he said it was awesome.

There's a twelfth in Canada, too. My brother checked out the one in San Francisco. I'll confess to being more than a little jealous. I'm half tempted to drive about four hours up to Orlando just for a goddamn Squishee.  :'( :'( :'(

Actually all the seven elevens are taking part in the promo. It's just that those eleven are made to look like Kwik E marts. You can get a squishee at any of them.

Are Das Sieben und der Elfs involved as well?  What's "squishee" in German, anyway?

Oooooh, I'll go get a Squishee today, then. But, you know what, I bet all of the good flavors are broken. I don't WANT Mello Yello or Coca-Cola, I want something cherry or strawberry flavored, okay?

The Newbridge Das Sieben und der Elf locations are serving one "squishee" (I don't know the German).  It looks like this:

I've been wanting to check out one of these stores--mostly for the Buzz Cola. I will have to see if the local 7-11 has any.

Do they all have some humiliated Indian guy imitating Apu in them?

I also heard that the old guy who gets stuck in the fridge when Apu goes to a party for 15 minutes is in the one in Seattle.

Sadly, 7-11's went the way of the dinosaur a long time ago here in Minnesota. It's probably been about 10 years since I've seen one. No Kwik-E-Mart for us :(

The nearest 7-11 to me is 167 miles away in Elizabeth City, NC.  HOO HAH, I'm not going to do that.

I'm hoping James Woods is working at one of them, doing research.

As old as this topic is, I thought it worth posting that I am currently aging a can of Buzz given to me by a dear friend. I think it'll really come into it's own in 2010.

I went to it, and it was kind of awesome. The only trouble is, I got really hungry one time and ate all the Krusty-O's I'd bought for my girlfriend and now I can never get another box. On the plus side, they were just crunch berries so I'm not missing much.

They're Froot Loops, Joe.  Crunch Berries are not o-shaped.

I seem to remember they were balls not loops, but on further reflection, I really can't remember WHAT they were. I was really hungry and I ate them dry, with my hands.

PS: I looked it up, and you are right. Maybe this is why I stopped smoking so much weed.
