Free Slurpee Day is Highlight of the Summer for Some

Wednesday is 7-Eleven Day! At participating 7-Eleven stores in Northern Virginia you can get a free 7.11 ounce Slurpee between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m.

 “7-Eleven Day, or free Slurpee Day, gets bigger and more popular every year,” said Joe DePinto, 7-Eleven president and CEO in a prepared statement. “This year we expect to give away 7 million Slurpee drinks, more than ever before, beating last year’s offer by 2 million."

On Wednesday, the company recognizes it's 85 years in the the convenience story bussiness and its 45th year offering the iconic summer drink, DePinto said.

Most importantly, it's the day the company does something special to thank customers for their support and welcome new guests.

 If you’re really in the mood to celebrate the free frozen treat day, 7-Eleven offers downloadable tiny party hats on its website.

 You can also reap the benefits of 7-Eleven day at Six Flags.

 Six Flags will offer a special admission price of $7.11 to guests after 7:11 p.m. on 7-Eleven Day when they present a receipt from a 7-Eleven purchase dated July 11. Six Flags America is located in 13710 Central Ave. in Bowie, MD. 

 Guests will also receive a VIP wristband at this time to attend the “Exclusive 7-Eleven Coasters After Dark” event that evening.
