It's Free Slurpee Day At 7-Eleven

It's that time of year again! Tuesday, July 11 marks the annual free Slurpee day at 7-Eleven.

This year is extra special because the company is turning 90 years old.

To celebrate its milestone birthday, 7‑Eleven is hosting a Slurpee party, continuing the tradition that started on the retailer’s 75th birthday in 2002.

Participating U.S. stores will give away an estimated 9 million free small Slurpee drinks from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Slurpee fans can try the new Cotton Candy flavor or one of their favorites.

In addition, Slurpee-lovers who purchase seven Slurpee drinks between July 12 and July 18 and scan the 7‑Eleven mobile app will receive 11 Slurpee drinks free.

New this year, Slurpee cup icons will appear in the app, showing customers’ progress toward the 11-free goal. Slurpee purchases also will count toward the ongoing Buy 6-Get 7th Free 7Rewards offer.

“Celebrating our birthday with a free Slurpee drink, the product that is probably most closely associated with 7‑Eleven, is a natural … and fun … way to mark the day!” Laura Gordon, vice president of marketing and brand innovation, said. “7‑Eleven Day is a celebration, not only of our birthday, but more importantly, of our customers. Ninety years is a big birthday, and our customers are the ones who got us here. By adding Slurpee Week, we have a whole week to say thank-you for their business throughout the year.”
