New 7-Eleven in our neighborhood; guess who was its first customer? |
|
That's right - yours truly was the first to visit a brand new 7-Eleven that opened earlier this morning. And I have the receipt to prove it.
A receipt for two bottles of Mexican Coca-Cola, still made with sucrose instead of that high-fructose corn syrup nonsense.

1. What?, no Slurpee® with your purchase of beef jerky? |
|
Sacrilege! :)
Of course I used the registered trademark, you think I want to get sewed?

2. We have Circle K here in Tucson... |
|
. ...which is a 7/11 equivalent (we also have 7/11). . Circle K has a Slurpee equivalent (I forget what it's called) and some of the stores actually have a TASTY(!!!) sugar-free "Slurpee" (I think it's cherry). . We have a local small chain of fastfood sandwich joints here a la Subway called Eegee's. Their sandwiches REALLY suck, but their version of the Slurpee is MILES above the rest (it's pretty much in a separate category -- spooned IN to your cup and then eaten with a spoon rather than a straw. .

3. I used to live down the street |
|
...from the ORIGINAL 7-11. It wasn't nearly as cool as the Polar Bear Ice Cream down the block.
Congrats on breaking that 7-11's cherry. Real sugar Coke rules. :hi:

5. We used to have a Polar Bear Ice Cream, too |
|
I only got to visit it once. Great ice cream. But now it's gone, and I do miss it so.
