Thanks for the update! It appears that Dr Pepper slurpees are extremely ge
ographically limited these days (alas!) I may have to make a trip to that
area....
Sorry about the Big Red slurpee takeover. I hear that Cheerwine slurpees e
xisted at one point, which would be *closer* to a replacement for Dr Pepper
(but really, is anything a replacement for Dr Pepper? ;-))
