Slurpees Pour as Temperatures Soar

Hot weather and a free giveaway combine for a run on Slurpees at the Paoli 7-11 to mark the date of 7/11.

7-11 stores are celebrating the date (7/11) by giving away free slurpees. But if you arrived at the 7-11 in Paoli after noon on Monday you were too late.

A shift manager told disappointed customers later in the afternoon that the store gave away 150 Slurpees in special 7.11 ounce cups between 8a.m. and noon before running out. Customers arriving Monday afternoon were greeted with "sorry no more free Slurpees" signs on the Slurpee machines.
