Who needs the Kwik-E-Mart?...I Doooooooooo
7-11 converted about 10 stores of theirs to look like Kwik-E-Marts for the upcoming Simpsons movie. Being that there were so few in the country, and there happened to be one of them right down the street from us, we decided to check it out.
Unfortunately most of the cool Simpsons food items were already sold out like Krusty O's and Buzz Cola (no Duff Beer), but they did have Squishees left which we took full advantage of.
The store even feautured some Simpsons characters. Here is me with Apu.
Here's J with Chief Wiggum.
The Squishee machine was manned by a real live Apu. In fact, there were a few of them at the store. His nametag even said "Apu". Too bad I just missed it for the photo. There was a line to get in the store and then another line to get a Squishee. The whole thing took about 30 minutes. That's probably the longest time I've ever spent in a convenient store. Maybe equal to the total time I've spent in convenient stores for my whole life! It was anything but convenient for this day, but it was still worth it.
Ah, Squishee!
