7-Eleven estimates they will dole out some 9 million small Slurpees, a tradition the chain started with their 75th birthday. This year, Slurpee-loving fans can try cotton candy — the chain's newest flavor. Cotton Candy will be available for a limited time at participating stores.
On Wednesday, Slurpee week continues through July 18. If you purchase 7 Slurpee drinks during the week and scan the 7-Eleven mobile app, you will receive coupons for 11 free Slurpees. Once 7 are purchased, 11 free coupons will appear in “Scan and Save” section of the app. You can redeem the coupons all at once or one at a time before Aug. 31.
