The Kwik Box

This box is located in Midtown, Memphis, Tennessee.

This box is located between two great things in Memphis: The Flashback Vintage Store and the Kwik Shop Grill. If you have a couple-hour layover at the Memphis airport, it would be possible to get a cab to this location and return to the airport for your flight.

The Flashback is a vintage store known for their quirky window displays. The Kwik Shop Grill is the best place to get a burger (or gyro or wings) in Memphis, despite its humble atmosphere--what appears to be a simple convenience store is actually an incredible grill!

The box is between these two businesses.

1. Facing The Kwik Shop from East Parkway, Flashback would be behind it.
2. Between the Kwik Shop and Flashback, there is a gravel parking lot that fits 2-3 cars.
3. If you park in this parking lot (turning into the lot from Central Avenue), Kwik Shop is on your right and Flashback is immediately on your left. There are a few bushes on your left.
4. The box is hidden in the bushes that will be on your left if you are parked in the gravel area behind the Kwik Shop Grill. See the picture below.
5. See that little gap in the monkey grass? If you reach your hand in there and to the left, you'll find our letterbox in a gladware plastic box. Please hide it well when you replace it! In this picture, you can almost see the Flashback's window display in the background.

While you are here, get a bite to eat from the Kwik Shop. You won't regret it. Also check out Flashback's window display and if they're open, you might take a walk around inside.


Kwik Shop address:
711 East Parkway S.
Memphis, TN 38104

Flashback address:
2304 Central Avenue
Memphis, TN 38104


*The Kwik Shop is on the corner of East Parkway and Central Avenue. You can park in the Kwik Shop's parking lot and walk behind the Kwik Shop to find the gravel parking area where this letterbox is hidden.
