Claim 1: “A former 7-Eleven store in Seattle has been transformed into an "Inconvenience Store" featuring items including pre-tangled USB cords”
SINGLE SOURCE
While one web search result explicitly confirms the transformation of a former 7-Eleven in Seattle into an 'Inconvenience Store' with pre-tangled USB cords, the other provided evidence (Wikipedia entries on 7-Eleven, Kindle, and USB drives) is generic and does not corroborate this specific event. Only one specific news source confirms the claim.
