Default 7-Elevens to be Converted to Kwik-E-Marts

As a promotion for the upcoming Simpsons movie Fox is trying to get 7-11 to convert some stores into kwik-E-Marts. I would love this and would really go out of my way to go to one.

Well this was not popular the first time I posted this so I am bringing it back.
It happened over the weekend, 12 stores were changed into Kwik-E-Marts. I so want to go to one and get a squishie and some Kruty-O's. To bad they are not selling Duff Beer.

They do not say where the one in Canada is but I bet anything that it is in Toronto.

By the love of Ganeesha, I'd go bezerk if one of these opened near by. I'm sure you could even sell your empty slurpee cup on eBay for $25.

The 7-11 on 16th ave has the simpsons stuff. It's not a kwik-e-mart but you can buy krusty-o's and buzz cola and such.
(the one next to peters, haven't been to any others)

I drove right past the Kwik-E-Mart in Seattle earlier today. I thought it was just some random store that hadn't been caught by the trademark police yet. I would've bought a squishy, buzz cola, & taken a picture

Here are some pictures that someone posted from one. They did a heck of a job it seems.

That's it. All 7-11's should be bought by Fox and changed into kwik-e-marts. Those stores are just too cool.

Too bad 7-11s aren't allowed to carry alcohol - I'd love to get me some Duff.

Even though I am not a HUGE Simpson's fan, this is pretty cool.
