Yes, it is that time of year again; welcome to Slurpee Season! 7-11 is allowing you to bring your own cup, which must fit certain requirements, and fill it with Slurpee for only $1.50 on Bring Your Own Cup Day, which takes place Friday, May 19th and Saturday, May 20th, stated abcactionnews.
However, before you take off with your whole mini fridge, the cup must fit certain requirements, according to fox61.com. It must:
- Fit upright through a 10” diameter hole
- Be food safe and clean
- Be watertight
- One cup per person per day
This year, 7-Eleven is getting into the BYOC game with its own colossal collectible cup, shaped like a blender and refillable. Thirsty customers who show up without an oversized cup can purchase the 50-ounce blender cup for $5.99. The new Ultimate Slurp Straw is more than twice as big as a regular straw, reported ksat.com.
So far, 7-11 has sold 6.5 billion Slurpees total, stated huffingtonpost.com. Every year, they sell enough Slurpees to fill up 12 Olympic sized swimming pools!
This article is very interesting and cool because you get to bring your own cup for one dollar and fifty cents!
Wow! That’s a lot of Slurpees great article!
I really enjoyed reading your article! I wish I could’ve gone to 7-11 around that time!
I enjoyed this article and I really wish that you could still bring your own cup to put your slurpee in.
I brought my own cup and they made me pay extra because it didn’t fit in the requirements. I am going to do it every year because it is a great way to have a big slurpy for a little price.
I thought the picture was funny and the article was very interesting.
Nice Article Daniel. I wonder if 7/11 would actually lose profit from all the people bringing massive cups for only $1.50
I don’t think so. People might go to 7/11, then want to come back because they can’t wait for Slurpee Season.
Great Job on the article! I wish I could have gone to 7-11 on the days they had is going on.
I enjoyed reading your article because I learned that there were requirements for the cup you wanted to bring.
I wanted to come but I was too late 🙁
Great article!
I enjoyed this article because I learned exactly what this was and why it is so popular. Good job!
I enjoyed reading your article because I learned about this awesome deal and I can go next year!
