[Scorch]

Sausage pringles? Cheese and potatoes? WTF? Sorry, once I pop one of those open, i'm pretty sure that I CAN stop.

[JasonTerminator]

Those sausage pringles go hand-in-hand with that sausage pizza!

I sometimes wish the US was as insane as Japan. I'd have a lot more fun in my daily activities then.

[the3rdkey]

If they had those iPods like that in America 7-11 would be robbed daily.

[CheapyD]

Sausage pringles? Cheese and potatoes? WTF? Sorry, once I pop one of those open, i'm pretty sure that I CAN stop.I didn't ;)

If they had those iPods like that in America 7-11 would be robbed daily.Those are just empty boxes...the real ones are out of reach.

[javeryh]

Japan is so wacky.

[thorbahn3]

Oxygen in a can? Oh I see, this 7/11 is underwater huh? Do they have arcade games in the 7/11 there?

[moojuice]

Those pringles actually sound/look good...

[basketkase543]

German style Pringles??

[Purkeynator]

Oxygen in a can......Anybody see Spaceballs?

[Puffa469]

I didn't ;)

Those are just empty boxes...the real ones are out of reach.

Gutted iPods selling as new??? for shame Japan... for shame... :cry:

[Graystone]

If they had those iPods like that in America 7-11 would be robbed daily.

Aren't they already?

Anyway why are the ipods in medicine/condom style boxes.

[psiufoxx2]

b/c they're ipod colored condoms...... dude, get with it.

[daphatty]

Oxygen in a can......Anybody see Spaceballs?

I was just going to say, looks like Mel Brooks is gonna get paid!

What did they call it? PerriAire?

[Ikohn4ever]

oxygen in a can, and me the sucker is breathing in the free air

[iowaholdem]

Actually, pure oxygen in a can would be awesome. It'd be very relaxing - and almost like laughing gas. The air we breathe is only like 5% oxygen or something like that, so most people don't understand how good pure oxygen is.

[nakedsushi]

German selection Pringles, but marketed to the Japanese? Is that kind of like Oriental flavor ramen here in the states?

[RelentlessRolento]

I'm hungry enough to move to japan now.

[TurkeyOnRye]

It's funny that there's a shortage of iPods in America, but theres enough to store dozens in 7-11's across Japan.

Way to go Apple.

I think that they are trying to revive the Axis. Pretty soon we'll be seeing 'Italian' flavor, too. Watch out for a revival of Neo-Fascism.

[youruglyclone]

isn't "cheese and potato" potato chips kinda redundant?

isn't it just "cheese" chips

[BasketCase1080]

isn't "cheese and potato" potato chips kinda redundant?

isn't it just "cheese" chips

not if its a baked potato :)

[wageslave]

I want to try the sausage!!!

[Renzokuken]

That's what she said.

Shortage? What are you talking about?

[Fire]

Shortage? What are you talking about?

last christmas up through mid February there was reports of shortages all around . That's why I had to go and get one from the Apple store that took a while to come.

[Panda]

Okay, I want those Pringles now.

[evilmax17]

You have to buy that oxygen and try it, then write up a small review comparing it to regular outdoor air. Although if it were straight oxygen, then it would make you pretty lightheaded.

[Quackzilla]

Breathing pure oxygen is as good as nicotine, and it doesn't give you cancer.

[XxFuRy2Xx]

I totally want some of that sweet oxygen.

[fullhavok]

sweet!!!!

[TimPV3]

The thread title alone made me laugh. Do they sell 360's there too?

[HumanSnatcher]

My first thought when I saw the canned air was "damn and I thought the SARS scare was over in asia?"

[Andyg88]

b/c they're ipod colored condoms...... dude, get with it.

Yeah, but these kind can hold up to 60gb worth of songs which give a little extra pleasure when you play your favourite tunes...

That sounds really wrong. The oxygen in a can looks enticing, I guess the fad hasn't reached North America, although it might be the next best thing for the pollution here...

[Mezmiro]

I want Sausage flavored Pringles :(

I'm wondering why there are iPods in a 7-11 store... are they like the cheap flash camera's in the US or do Japanese people just not go to big electronics stores to get MP3 players?

[Chacrana]

Oxygen in a can is expensive... isn't normal air good enough?

[adrianchan56]

It's for dummies.

I wouldn't be surprised if they sold disposable underwear with mint scents there.

Well see, most people like OTHER people's cultures more than their own. And i'm one of those people

[retro_killa]

OMG thats sweet ;) you should sell some of the iteams on the site or even on ebay ;)

[Jewelz23]

i thought i saw it all...sausage flavored pringles...hmm

probably tastes real good...most pringles do.

[King_Sprout]

Anyone ever try pure oxygen?

[CheapyMom]

Anyone ever try pure oxygen?

Cheapy actually tried the stuff in the can and created a review and video demonstration. (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=97047)

[Zero_Kirby]

that cool

[Stunt]

Lucky bastards.

[cyphertink]

Oh good lord! Please tell me you'd let me send you $ and get a couple of those cans of pringles!

[BryceDraven]

I bet, only reason why we don't have sausage favors in America is because some people are still homophobes and think eating things that look like penises makes you gay.. haha!

[gmunchkin]

damn! I really want to go to Japan now. ive always dreamed of inhaleing oxygen from an arosal can.

[coolbob]

Here's a german website that has a picture of what appears to be almost all the flavors of pringles in the world. It says the collection isn't complete but it has to be close. http://www.redriot.de/pringles.htm MMMM curry flavored pringles.

[One51]

I know Im late, but when Halo 2 launched my 7-11 had it for $40...

I didnt know about this website back then or else I woulda mentioned it....

Uuuuuh... ok?

[nharmon91]

Man Japan is fucked up

[maxg]

http://cheapassgamer.com/ymij/oxygencan.jpg


Two flavors of oxygen? I'd pick the forest flavor over regular blah air.

[x S U P R A x]

that is so cool! i have to drive to a local bestbuy to even see an ipod!... do they sell the zune too?

[Emperorvicious]

Im going to Japan this summer so Ill buy some and maybe give away a few

That would be a great give away prize though :)

[imascrub]

The top one has a minty fresh smell while the bottom one has a grapefruit-ish smell. Apparently they can give you some kind of a boost of energy if you're feeling sleepy, sluggish, or just out of breath or something. Or if you're in a small enclosed space and somebody lets out a juicy one...

Reminds me of those oxygen bars or whatever that I saw while in vegas...

[Ace of Spades]

Wow, that's pretty fricking kool tbh.

[Darkyoshi1]

Oh yeah... welll.. my 7-11 has a drive through! Beat that!

[fullmetalfan720]

Now I really want to go to Japan. I want to try some of that oxygen.

[Wii-A-Holic]

japan is so weird......

[Kurosenshi]

Hey Cheapy,

Kurosenshi here. I live in the Meguro section of Tokyo, and like you am a New Yorker living in Japan (love the podcast, and yes I know Twilo). In any case, a co-worker of my girlfriend's who lives in Naka-Meguro managed to pick up a Wii just last week in a Family Mart near her place. I couldn't believe it. She said there were just two sitting on the shelf, and after a recent nabe party where a friend brought one over for us to try, she couldn't resist buying one when it was sitting in front of her. I'd have to say that beats 7-11's iPods and Oxygen!

yeah! I went to some oxygen bar, and it felt a million times better than being outside breathing smog :drool:

[CRAZYstarscream]

Way to go Apple.

And the odd thing, You can stand on one street corner and see (3) 7-11's ;) I used to live in Iwakuni (Yamaguchi Prefecture) for a couple of years.

My favorite odd ball thing I used to eat was some kind of Squid jerky. Delicious.

[Trenchalicious]

We don't have any 7-11s in the state and I'm glad. Japan is goofy enough, this stuff is nothing. Bible Black anyone?

[Urashima]

CLEARLY You don't know whats good. :P Mmmm...pillowy mounds of mashed potatoes....

The oxygen in a can thing is kinda cool too. I wonder if they'll come out with Cheese and potato flavored Oxygen?

[flyworld3]

Imagine a PS3 in a can.

[Ghostcri]

They sell crack at a few of the 711's around here...

[Nirvanaguy777]

A local chain called "On The Run" (they sell gas as well as being a 711esk store) sells some sort of oxygen in a can...but it looks stupid as hell so I never bought it.

[KoA]

Ooooh so many ipods.

[Z_meista]

Cheapy, why do they sell oxygen in a can in Japan? Did you try those Pringles?

[h3llbring3r]

lol, that's freakin hilarious. There was one in West-ATL that sold Dom Perignon, Crystal and illegal Cuban cigars.

I like Cheese & Potato flavor pringles (how the hell do they get them to taste like potatoes?)

[yukafls]

:lol::lol:thats hilarious!!

[Rollett]

I want a freaken Sausage pringles contest Cheapy!


Who's with me?!

Dried shredded cuttlefish is delicious. Sure, it's saturated in MSG, but poison never tasted so good. ;) Though I have not consumed any since I left Hawaii. :-(

rip yummy

[Switchblade232]

surprisingly enough, my local gas station at one point had unlocked cell phones...probably stolen

[Chase]

Probably.

Coin-operated machines in the U.S. feature cheap, poor-quality products for a reason: theft; and it is also why our 7-11s feature goods of similar quality. It sucks, really. Really sucks, even.

[Beanopolis]

I'd have to buy some canned air in order to enjoy my sausage pringles without soiling the taste by breathing in other smells.
