7-Eleven

Why oh why did they ever close the drive thru?!?
Yes, this 7 – 11 had a flippin’ full service drive-​through back in the 1980s. It was such a great concept to my friends and I, we were more than willing to go a little out of our way, forsaking closer 7−11s dotting No-​Po, to hit the drive-​through. Man, for a time, they had a full service deli, and they’d whip up killer hoagies and soup or bentos for you, and the requisite big gulps and slurpees. We loved that drive-​thru w/​a white-​hot purity that only dorky teenagers can muster.
The 7 – 11 on Swan Island has quite a bit more competition nowaday from other eateries serving this bustling hub of industry park banality. Not that any one considers the likes of Jack ‘n’ the Box and McD’s quality competition, those places obviously will siphon off a lot of competition.
Fine. so it doesn’t make sense to keep using the full-​service drive-​thru ‘n’ deli. But AT LEAST you could bring back the old school video games. We’ve all got quarters just burning holes in our pockets…
