ONE GULP TO RULE THEM ALL!
I have seen the face of American ingenuity and the immaculate hand of god in a product and that product is the new 7-Eleven Slurp & Gulp™. First of all the goddamn thing looks like a bong with a Slurpie hookah. That makes it worth purchasing it right there. I don"t know what 7-Eleven puts in their fountain drinks that taste better than anywhere else. Don"t believe me. Go to McDonalds and get a small coke. Then get the same drink from 7-Eleven and that one will be tastier. I have no idea what kind of chemistry and engineering they have invested in their fountain drink system. If they only could apply the same technological moxie to their piss poor coffee. The Slurp & Gulp™. Is a combination double lined container filled with pop in one and Slurpie in the other. Why would you want one of these? Two words Vanilla Coke. It is unusually hot and muggy here in Western Washington and a Vanilla Coke Slurpie with a outer layer of liquid vanilla coke is a simple way to kill a thirst and your bladder. The surreal experience is worth the two bucks and you will have to pee once you are done but it is not as bladder killing as their UBER-gulps. I love getting a book from the library getting a Slurp and Gulp and sitting in the sun in the park and reading while killing my teeth and bladder with this icy sugary death. Surreal yes. Stupid yes. But fun yes. But than again that is the whole point in the first place.
I swear to God it is convenience stores that make this the best country on the face of the planet.
Dallas, July 8, 2002 - 7-Eleven, Inc. may be the only retailer that can make news with a cup. But at 7-Eleven, it’s not just any cup. Slurp and Gulp – the newest 7-Eleven beverage container gives beverage aficionados the best of both worlds. And 7-Eleven, Inc.’s proprietary beverage product director John Ryckevic thinks that will make it a hot seller this summer at up to 5,800 participating 7-Eleven stores in the United States and Canada.
The 54-ounce partitioned plastic cup holds both a 22-ounce Slurpee semi-frozen carbonated beverage in its inside chamber, surrounded by a 32-ounce Big Gulp in the outside barrel. The cold Big Gulp drink helps keep the Slurpee frozen longer. The specially designed domed lid has two holes for both a beverage straw and Slurpee spoon straw. Suggested retail price for the two-in-one Slurp & Gulp beverage is $1.99. Refills are $1.49.
If anyone emails me some pictures of a Slurp and Gulp Bong I will post them ;)
i want the job of "proprietary beverage product director" just cause that's a much longer title than the one i have at work and i would get to do things like make up bong lookin cups and drinks to go with them
LOL, I actually just made this cup INTO a working BONG. (Hint, cut off the top dome and the bottom of the inner sleeve) I got the idea early this evening and got it working. I just searched Yahoo! to see if some1 else thought of the idea and hey, whatdayaknow!
My friend built a bong out of one of these. We tried it out, it works great and gets us both completely blazed.
If you email me some pictures I will post them ;)
