Today is free Slurpee day at 7-11! If one is close to your place, go enjoy a nice brain freeze [http://www.wptv.com/dpp/money/consumer/deal\_of\_the\_day/today’s-freebie%3A-7-eleven-free-slurpee-on-july-11,-2011](http://www.wptv.com/dpp/money/consumer/deal_of_the_day/today's-freebie%3A-7-eleven-free-slurpee-on-july-11,-2011) It’s only 7.11 ounces so it won’t be huge, but mmm… Slurpee. ---

I was all excited yesterday, and then I remembered that the local 7-11 was converted to a Cum-N-Go. ---

Wish I’d seen this thread earlier! (Then again, I don’t think that Thai 7-11s participated-- and not all of them have Slurpee machines, anyway.) ---

Weird coincidence department: I went to the local 7-eleven in my town’s strip mall 4 times on7-11 for a free slurpee. At 3:00 a.m. Wednesday 7/12, one of the other stores in the strip caught fire, which spread to two other stores. Fortunately, the 7-eleven store is at the end of the mall and was spared. But it is going to be closed until the Building and Health Inspectors say they can open, and they dump all the smoke damaged stuff and replace it with new merchandise.
