Awful Promotions Department #347: 7-Eleven Sherlock Holmes

711-holmes.jpg

Was reading Entertainment Weekly today. There is an actual ad for a cross promotion between the new Sherlock Holmes movie and 7-Eleven. Let me get this straight, the movie about a fictional detective in the 1890's is now solving your hunger and getting you to buy product at 7-Eleven. The ad reads, "Mystery Solved. 7-Eleven has great coffee." Yah it does.

And it goes on from there. On the website you can "solve" your hunger with 99 cent "Go Go" taquitos. As a side note, who is buying taquitos at 7-Eleven anyway? Oh thank, heaven?
