The 7-Eleven chain has long been the place to buy Slurpees, beer and lottery tickets. Coming to 7-Eleven in Japan: oxygen in a can. The product is marketed to help buyers replenish their natural oxygen levels which, if too low, can supposedly cause fatigue. For just over $5, the oxygen in a can comes in either "strong mint" or "grapefruit" and is supposed to make you feel invigorated. here

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
