Geesh I didn't know a simple statement about ICEE's would end up 6-pages later when I woke up lol.
I think IT IS necessary to capatalize all the letters of ICEE.
A Slurpee & ICEE are 2 different things, Slurpee is EXCLUSIVELY 7-11 & they ARE better. I get Slurpee's almost every other day. (I have an AM/PM & 7-11 across the street from me)
A Slushee & all those other names are NOT Slurpee's nor ICEE's, not even close, nothing compares to those two.
ICEE/SLURPEE are the ORIGINALS.
I say COKE not Coca-Cola... nobody over here says Coca-Cola, they either say COKE or COLA. (California, bay area area)
We also have about 12 RedBoxe's down here (in my county alone) there is about 200 in California.
FUN FACT? RedBoxe's or also known as Kiosk (or something?) were first introduced IN Mc. Donald's.
The concept was simple, "people come in for food, they're going to want a movie too..." so they placed rental kiosks in the actual restaurant, sometimes outside the entrance.
The rentals were always $1.00 PER-NIGHT to coincide with the $1 menu Mcd. offers.
The idea was, "most people will keep the movie an extra night or two..." boosting that $1 rental to $2-3. WINNING!
Earlier in the year, I would say January, the RB (redbox) increased the price of a movie rental to $1.25. Shortly after (within weeks) the price dropped back to $1.00 after loss in profits.
You can now buy/rent movies & games from the RB, Wii, PS3, & 360, games are $2.00 per night. You can also get BluRays for $2.00 per night.
YOU MUST USE A DEBIT CARD when renting or some other form of card accepted.
The RB has 2 promotional codes available which enables you to rent FREE movies, the codes are "Breakroom" & "DVDONME" use them at checkout for free rentals, THEY WORK.
