Kwik-E-Mart Coming to Your Neighborhood 7-Eleven?

Homer Simpson Anyone with even remote knowledge of The Simpsons is familiar with the Kwik-E-Mart convenience store on the series. The current 7-Eleven marketing promotion converts a dozen of the stores into Kwik-E-Marts for the upcoming The Simpsons Movie. A stroke of genius, to be sure, but a bit of a rip for fans of the animated classic who aren’t in proximity to a 7-Eleven. Fear not, however, because most of the other 6,000 locations will also sell Simpsons’ inspired products, including Squishees (a.k.a. Slurpees), Buzz Cola and KrustyO’s cereal. I’d think for even the mildest Simpsons fans, these would be coveted items to own. The Simpsons Movie will open on July 27 and you can bet that people will be pouring into the theaters for a glimpse of Homer on the big screen. If you do live near one of the transformed stores, you’ll see the exteriors look decidedly like the animated Kwik-E-Mart—so, lucky residents of New York City, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Burbank, Los Angeles, Henderson (Nevada), Orlando (Florida), Mountain View (California), Seattle and Bladensburg (Maryland)... check it out soon, because your area Kwik-E-Mart will only be around for this month.
