It’s supposed to actually get hot in Burnaby next week.
Like, 27C stinky-ass hot.
One thing that helps ease the hotness is a cold drink.
7-Eleven Canada plans to help with that as it celebrates 50 years of serving Canada – and serving Slurpee in Canada - by giving away 885,000 free Slurpee drinks.
On Thursday, July 11, from 11 a.m. until midnight, Burnaby 7-Eleven locations will each be giving away 1,500 Slurpee drinks in exclusive 12 oz. commemorative cups.
The first Slurpee was poured in Calgary, Alberta in 1969.
“This year’s exclusive Slurpee Cups are a composition of images of fans,” said a news release. “Paying homage to the loyal Canadian fanbase, fan submissions are displayed on each cup along with an exclusive Snap lens that can be unlocked to get fans dancing through the decades. The gifts don’t stop with a free Slurpee drink, either. Customers can also scan their 7-Eleven Day cup to get 1,000 free 7Rewards points. 7Rewards members can spend 1000 points to ‘pay’ for a medium Slurpee on their next visit.”
7-Eleven Canada also announced its partnership with Uber Eats. This means Canadians can now get the new and innovative feature summer Slurpee flavors in Sour Patch Kids Orange and Fanta Lite Mango Passionfruit delivered to their door.
