You get a slurpee! You get a slurpee! You get a slurpee!
Fans of the eponymous slushy 7-Eleven treat are in luck — the convenience store chain is giving away free Slurpees on Friday from 11 a.m. until 7 p.m. to celebrate its 87th birthday.
The sugar-high event known as “Free Slurpee Day” started in 2002, though the icy drinks have been sold in stores since 1965.
This year, there are more freebies than ever — the ordinary one-day giveaway has extended to an eight-day free-for-all for customers who download the 7-Eleven app.
Free treats include a Big Gulp on Saturday and free Snickers or Twix ice cream bars on Wednesday. Just show your smartphone to a 7-Eleven clerk on the appropriate day.
Let the sugar-high begin!
Here’s a list of upcoming freebies:
Saturday: Big Gulp
Sunday: M&M’s birthday cake-flavored candies
Monday: Grandma’s Cookies
Tuesday: Twinkies
Wednesday: Snickers or Twix ice cream bar
Thursday: Quaker Chewy yogurt snack bar
July 18: Pillsbury Cookie
July 19: Small Slurpee
