Popcorn Online!?
I have to say first, I used to make jokes about starting Banak online business, but I never saw this coming. Popup-kw is an online site for ordering different tastes of popcorns. Popcorn White Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Dark Chocolate, or mixed flavors for prices ranging from 2 to 3 KDs. While the site might not look so attractive, and one could think it’s fake, Some Contrast blogger was offered a FREE sample of the popcorn and he wrote up a review about it. As he says, the popcorn tasted great, and the packaging looks really nice (photos in the link). Not sure if this was a special package or it’s the standard you get.
One thing to note is, while their business is online based, the site does not have online ordering, and I don’t think it’s an officially registered company. I think it’s something similar to personal efforts, just like how some people make special beautiful stuff and sell it to their friends, but this one is online driven. You can place your order with them by phone, or SMS, and you pay on delivery, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Some information I see missing from the site is the delivery details. How fast do they deliver? Which areas? How do I guarantee it will arrive hot and fresh before the movie starts (or the match, as we are in African Cup nowadays)? and the delivery times ofcourse. Those information would be helpful if made available online.
The idea might seem weird again, but if you are setting infront of TV waiting for tonight’s movie, I’m just thinking 2 KD for tasty popcorn might be a good deal. Just don’t come ringing the bell during the movie

waiting 2 minutes and preparing pop corn using the microwave sounds much easier to me .. but i think that their selling point is providing flavors that aren’t available else where, coz if even the chocolate flavored pop corn is available in supermarkets i don’t see why should someone order the pop corn online !

MrMMM: Exactly. It is the flavor. Plus, some people are just lazy they call electrician to change light bulp (it’s true!)

this is the standard packaging, i tried it its really good! u can call up n ask abt the timing. however i dont think its usually served hot since the popcorn is made first and then the flavor is poured over it making it unique and still fresh. btw i just ran into ur blog it seems pretty interesting~
