Yeah, but the Buzz is an alternative. There's always a way...

And that way involves shotguns.

It sounds like something Native Americans use to wipe themselves.
Eh? As far as I can tell by clicking on the link for the specific store on the 7-Eleven website, there is only a single Kwik-E-Mart in BC, located in Coquitlan, which is a small suburban city bordering Vancouver, and is often considered to be part of Vancouver itself (probably why both citys' names were included in the link).

Guys guys guys, It's Coquitlammmm with an m. And yeah it probably has something to do with the fact that well around here in Ontario we don't even have 7-11's much anymore, they're all Mac's.

Um, there are plenty of 7-Elevens in Ontario, but they're mostly confined to the urban areas. Small town or suburban convenience stores tend to be Mac's (or in the past Becker's, which has since been taken over by Mac's)

That's so awesome. Any convenience store that did that around here would instantly get my business

That's weird, I don't ever recall seeing any in Ottawa. But I only go downtown and the east side of the city.

Damnation, the closest one to me is up in NYC. I sure as hell am not going to DC for this.

Fortunately I have friends in NYC. Gotta have a box of Krusty-O's!

Well, it's Coquitlam (lived there for many years), but yes, it's a suburban city in the GVRD, roughly equivalent to Oakville in size and distance from downtown.

And, yes, it sucks ass that we didn't get one here. At least it would have made sense if they put them all in Springfields.

Edit: missed Mrs Kendall's m correction

Is that the same as calling Park City, Utah a suburb of Salt Lake City? I've seen Provo called a suburb of Salt Lake even.

i'm not sure, it' a good hours drive from SF, an there's no way someone like me can get there on a whiem ~_~. It's annoying anyhow, if from another city don't say you're from SF =O

Sounds about right, Park City is a 3 hour drive over a mountain pass from Salt Lake and Provo is South in a different valley.

Guy on another forum thinks that not watching TV is an excuse to immediatly claim that it's an isolated store in the middle of the country made up by a desperate 7-11 owner who's ripping off the show to sell his wares.

OY TO THE VEY.

Trust me, they're there: I used to live in a town the same distance from Ottawa as Renfrew (Prescott, located near the south end of Highway 416), and I have seen them during my trips into the city. There are only about a half-dozen stores in the entire city though, and few to none in the surrounding exurbs.

That really is stupid because they've had ads about this on the radio too.

There's a 7-Eleven a couple towns from where I live and I can get to it by bus. I kind of want to go over there this weekend, since it might be the last chance to see this.

Also, I hope that image of Jasper in the freezer has the note he pinned to himself on it.

And the Intenet. And the newspapers. Honestly, how ignorant can you be if you miss four different sources and still act rude?

Also simple logic would have shown that it was nation wide since they are making new brands ie Krusty-Os and Buzz.

Logic has no appeal to him. He freely admits that he likes to piss people off for the sake of it, and thinks that we're idiots for thinking that it's immature.

We don't have a Kwik-E-Mart in Edmonton, but the 7-11 by my house had those pink donuts.

Disgusting. I had them fresh at 4:30AM, just walked in when they were delivered. The pink icing is like a pound of sugar. I could barely finish one, and I had an upset stomach after I woke up 4 hours later.

Homer's gut is made of stainless steel or something.
