Yep, it's 7-11 already. Free small Slurpees today at 7-Eleven. Like! Share! Tweet! Get the app!

Ironically, only between 11 and 7.

FYI, last year there was a specially marked paper cup. Some idiots bought & sold them afterwards on Ebay. :)

    So I went to their website and clicked "Find a Slurpee" and the nearest 7-11 is in Agawam which is over 90 minutes from me. :^(

    In Boston? Here in LA, it's hard to find an intersection without one.


    Wanna buy a used paper cup?

    We have Store 24 and White Hen Pantry instead. I'll pass on the paper cup.

    I am surrounded by no less that 5 Seven-Elevens within 2 blocks walking distance that are open 24/7. You have to visit Taiwan to understand how that can be. But alas, alack, I am 16 hours in the future and it is already 1 am here.

    So even if this might be possible I guess I missed it.

    Turns out it's not just Slurpee Day today, so there's hope for Martin, Loopy and anyone else who needs something a wee bit stronger...

    I'll have to go to Dairy Queen and have a Blizzard to celebrate......it's closer and I like Blizzards better.

    (It's not HOW you celebrate, it's THAT you celebrate!!)

    There are no 7-11's in my area (NW Pennsylvania). They tried to come in with one store a couple of years back but lasted only a year. It was taken over by Red Apple. I set up is an anti 7-11 shield protecting the area. I just need to fine tune it for Sheetz which is starting to pop up everywhere here :).

    7-11 got its name from its original hours. Yep, 7 am 'till 11 pm.

    I've worked at three different 7-11s in my life. It could be fun at times.

    It was even fun to work Christmas day because people were so happy to see a store open. The customers were all in a good mood while paying exorbitant prices for the batteries which weren't included with gifts received.

    Well, it is 6:11 pm and I just got this message. I didn't see anyone lining up for Free Slurpees when I picked up my newspaper at the 7-11 around noon, but I guess I should run out and give it one last try.

    Still, I think this offer is strictly for North America... USA and Canada maybe.

    I am not evey sure I should get a free Slurpee. Since Chinese New Years I have shed 15 kilograms by a 'no more sugar' policy. Do they have 'sugar-free free Slurpies' ?

    Nobody in Taiwan understands where 7-11 got there name as they have always been open 24/7. Since guns are illegal in Taiwan, nobody does late night/early morning robberies.

    You can go to the 7-11 anytime. They even sell clean underwear and socks.. kinda of odd.
