On what is arguably the best day of the summer, 7-Eleven convenience stores will once again offer free small Slurpee drinks on Wednesday, July 11.
Come one, come all. Stop by your local 7-Eleven convenience store between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. on Wednesday, July 11, to receive a FREE small Slurpee in the flavor of your choice (one per person).
All those delicious Slurpee flavors vary by location, of course, but the 7-Eleven website is featuring the company's one-of-a-kind Cap’n Crunch’s Crunch Berries Slurpee! Or, choose one from an array of other available flavors: Wild Cherry, Coca-Cola, Pina Colada, or (my personal favorite) Blue Raspberry.

But honestly. Does it really matter what flavor you choose? I mean, have you ever met a Slurpee that you didn't like?
And here's a question: With more than 100 7-Eleven stores in the area, what would stop someone from, say, making the rounds and visiting multiple locations, sampling available flavors from each? Asking for a friend.
Since the 1960s, 7-Eleven stores have been serving up their slushy, frozen carbonated drinks, named Slurpees for the sound they make when being slurped up through the straw. 7-Eleven Day started in 2002, and the company estimates that they give away nine million Slurpee freebies on this day every year.
So what's your favorite Slurpee flavor? We'd love to hear about it (or see a pic!) in the comments below! Happy 7-Eleven Day!
