This Saturday is 7/11, and you know what that means -- free Slurpee day!
7-Eleven stores will be giving away 7.11 ounce Slurpees to celebrate their 82nd birthday at more than 6,000 in the U.S. and Canada.
While a free Slurpee is enough to get us in the door, the company is planning some extra incentives to join the birthday party. Partnering with Live Nation, folks snagging a free Slurpee will get a instant win code to win one of 711 $50 cash prizes, and get a link to buy $7.11 lawn tickets at some Live Nation venues.
“Music seemed a natural extension to the big Slurpee birthday party we throw every year on 7-Eleven day,” said Evan Brody, 7-Eleven’s marketing manager for Slurpee and Big Gulp® brands. “Every party is better with music, and we worked with Live Nation to come up with a way to make our celebration even bigger and better. Together, we’ve been able to provide an affordable way for people to see their favorite band in concert this summer.”
