Simpsons Marketing Ploy Taking Over Local 7-11


Way back at the end of March, our prescient brother blog MP:Philly broke the news that eleven 7-11 stores around the country would be converted to Kwik-E-Marts as part of the Simpsons Movie promotion extravaganza. Fast forward a few months, and it’s happening, right here in Chicago (just barely)! Our lucky 7-11 (pun) is located at 6754 W 63rd St, and will physically resemble, in many ways, its cartoon knockoff. You’ll also be able to buy certain Simpsons foodstuffs, most notably the Squishee. Do not be surprised or disgusted if it tastes like a Slurpee.
