Trending: Amazon Prime Day begins, plus ‘Barbi-Heimer’ double bookings
LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) — Two of the most anticipated movies are coming out on the same day and people are planning to see both on the same night.
The world’s largest cinema chain says so far more than 20,000 members have purchased tickets for the films.
But, according to early tracking, Barbie is expected to outpace Oppenheimer in terms of inaugural ticket sales.
The movies release July 21.
Another highly anticipated start date is Amazon Prime Day.
Tuesday marks the start of millions of exclusive deals on Amazon for 48 hours.
Shoppers can expect deals on top brands like Dyson, Theragun, and Frigidaire.
More deals are hailing from Subway on Tuesday.
The sandwich chain is offering 1 million free six-inch subs from 10 a.m. to noon.
Only one free sandwich is allowed per person.
Subway invested more than $80 million in new meat slicers for 20,000 of its restaurants, to debut its new products.
Tuesday is National Mojito Day!
It’s a time to celebrate and appreciate the delicious ice-cold minty drink.
The Mojito is made with white rum, sparkling water, sugar, lime juice, and mints.
The concoction can be traced back to the 16th century.
Some say it was a favorite drink of pirates, but others believe it was created by enslaved Africans who harvested sugar cane on the Caribbean islands.
