Convenience store chain 7-Eleven plans to hand out nearly 3 million free Slurpees today to celebrate its 80th birthday.
Each year on July 11, the chain hands out free Slurpees to mark 7-Eleven's founding in suburban Dallas in 1927. The company expects to give away close to 3 million drinks in 7.11-ounce cups today.
And when it comes to selling the semi-frozen beverage, Bob Stella is the Chicago area's Slurpee king.
Happy 7-11 07.
