Kwik-E-Mart

[trust]

So about a dozen 7-11s across America are transforming their convenient stores into "Kwik-E-Marts" from the tv show The Simpsons. They're selling Krusty-O cereal, Buzz Cola, and even Squishees. I think it's pretty cool if you ask me. A few cities where you can find Kwik-E-Marts is New York City; Chicago; Dallas; Denver; Burbank, California; Los Angeles; Henderson, Nevada; Orlando, Florida; Mountain View, California; Seattle; and Bladensburg, Maryland. 6,000 other stores aren't making the full transformation but will be selling some of The Simpsons food items. No Duff Beer in any of the stores though.

As much as I think this whole thing is stupid, it brings up a new concept: reverse product placement. Take products from a show/movie and sell them. :)

I just went to the one in Mountain View, but they were out of Simpson's stuff :(. So I just got a Squishee, a straw, and a pink doughnut :).
