Re: Circle K

The only other Krispy Krunchy Chicken that I know of is about 13 miles away inside of a Chevron Extra Mile store in San Ramon. That one has its own back room with a very large kitchen. They make much more chicken and have 2 employees. I doubt Chevron would supply fried chicken to a competitor.

Re: Circle K

This Circle K is taking steps to improve its offerings. They installed a Krispy Krunchy Chicken heated display. They are supposedly going to offer it soon.

Re: Walgreens loses $200 Million on Freezer Door Screens

There are refrigerators by the cash registers at Walmart that show advertisements. If it acts just as a TV to show commercials, then it might be profitable for the store. People always want to see the real product inside. Perhaps play commercials and then the glass can become clear so that you can s...

Re: Sydney-based cinema chain Dendy opens Australia's third IMAX screen in Canberra

Many theater chains in the US have come up with their own large screen auditorium to rival IMAX. These mini-IMAX style screens aren't as good as the full size IMAX. I am lucky as a few years ago a new full size IMAX screen opened up near my house. I saw the re-release of Rogue One in IMAX. The digit...

Re: Walgreens to close 1400 stores

Walgreens is run terribly. Berkeley and Alameda are very different cities. The police actually respond in Alameda and Berkeley. Crime is much lower just crossing into those cities.

Re: Wendy's Salted Caramel Frosty

The Caramel Frosty is gone. The Caramel Frosty is no longer in the Aloha cash register system, but some restaurants are still selling it until they run out of syrup.

The new Frosty will be the Thin Mints Frosty at the end of February.

For now the vanilla Frosty has returned.

Re: Walmart new logo

Walmart used to have the smiley logo. That was associated with Walmart several years ago. When I saw the blood stained smiley in the movie Watchmen, I immediately thought of Walmart. Walmart got rid of all traces of the smiley around that time.

Jimmy John's Order A Sandwich After 2 PM Make It A Combo

I saw some commercials for making a free upgrade to a combo after 2 PM with a sandwich purchase. This has been going on for a while now.
