'Marvelous Mrs. Maisel' 30-cent gas promotion shut down by Santa Monica PD
, Lieutenant Candice Cobarrubias from the Santa Monica Police Department confirmed that police were present at the event and that it "generated a tremendous amount of activity in the area." She further identified a "public safety issue" due to gridlock traffic, which necessitated the event being shut down at 2:30 p.m. Amazon declined to comment.
Maisel Day, occurring across Los Angeles on Thursday, is taking over select businesses and bringing 1959 prices to their items and services. On Thursday Angelenos could purchase a Drybar blowout for $2, a Pink's hot dog for 59 cents, see a movie at the Bay Theatre for 51 cents and stay a night at the Hollywood Roosevelt hotel for $40, among other promotions.
The Santa Monica Chevron wasn't the only Maisel Day promotion to spark a great deal of enthusiasm and mind-numbing wait times. Bellacures, which was offering a $2 manicure, had a three-hour wait, while McConnell's ice cream boasted a 45 min. wait. At The Grove, See's Candies sold out at around 11 a.m. of their featured product, Dominique Ansel sold out of 400 itmes at 12 p.m.
