Bring Your Own Cup Day at 7-Eleven #BYOCup

This weeknd is Bring Your Own Cup Day at 7-Eleven. We almost missed out because I happened to find the hashtag on Instagram. 
So Tierney found a cup and off we went. 
I ended up letting Em get her own small Slurpee and she had to get one for Garrett. 
What is your favorite Slurpee mix?

 

7‑Eleven® Doubles Down with Two-day BYOC Promotion to Celebrate Slurpee® Drink’s 50thBirthday

Friday, March 18, and Saturday, March 19 from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. both days! 

It’s the second annual 7‑Eleven® Bring Your Own Cup (#BYOCupDay), when Slurpee® fans can bring just about anything remotely resembling a cup to participating 7‑Eleven stores and fill it with their favorite frozen flavor.

The retailer’s iconic Slurpee drink is turning Fiftee (50) so this year’s event is twice as big with double the days – Friday, March 18, and Saturday, March 19 – and double the fun.

Between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. on those days, Slurpee lovers can fill their chosen “cup” at participating stores for $1.50, the average cost of a medium Slurpee drink and a great deal for customers with extra-extra-large containers. Each person can only bring in one cup-like container, which must fit upright through an in-store display with a 10-inch diameter hole. Cups cannot be more than 9 inches wide and 11 inches tall and must be leak-proof, safe and sanitary. That means no trashcans or trash bags, kiddy pools or kitchen sinks.

For thirsty customers who show up without an oversized container, 7‑Eleven is selling collectible 64-ounce mason jar-style cups sporting the “Slurpee 50” celebration logo. Available at participating stores, the price of the refillable cup is $4.99, and the first fill is free. Exclusive Slurpee flavors include Airheads Xtremes Rainbow Berry and Diet Coke FROST with a Splash of Cherry.

“Last year’s BYOCup Day was a huge hit, and because this year is the big Slurpee Fiftee celebration, we added a second day so more people can get in on the fun,” Gordon said. “We saw just how creative Slurpee fans can get during the first BYOCup Day. They filled drums, kettles, fishbowls, helmets and teapots. I can’t wait to see what they bring this year.”

Part of the fun is capturing the Slurpee experience with photos and sharing it on social media. To encourage social media participation, 7‑Eleven is using the hashtag #BYOCupDay so Slurpee fans can share their crazy cups on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat. A Snapchat account under the username REALLYSLURPEE is active, and users can add a splash of color to their snaps with a special BYOCup Day geo-filter, available only at 7‑Eleven stores March 18 and 19.

For the Slurpee Fiftee celebration, 7‑Eleven launched the new Slurpee.com to share the fun of Slurpee and excitement happening all year long.
