Slurpee Day 2025: How to get your free frozen treat at 7-Eleven, Speedway, and Stripes today

When it’s our birthdays, we’re the ones who get gifts. But when it’s a company’s birthday, sometimes they are the ones giving gifts away.

That’s the case with convenience store chain 7-Eleven, which is celebrating its 98th birthday today. The chain, along with its Speedway and Stripes stores, is giving away free Slurpees on what it calls “Slurpee Day.” Here’s what you need to know.

What is Slurpee Day?

Slurpee Day is the name that 7-Eleven gives to its annual birthday celebration, which it holds on July 11 every year. (The seventh month and eleventh day—get it?)

While we think of convenience stores as modern-day conveniences, 7-Eleven has actually been around for nearly a century now. The chain was founded in 1927 as the Southland Ice Company, before becoming known as Tote’m Stores through 1946, after which the chain was bestowed with the name we know it by today.

The Slurpee is, of course, 7-Eleven’s most iconic offering. It was invented in 1966, making it 59 years old this year. The slushy-type drink is currently sold at 7-Eleven stores as well as at Speedway and Stripes convenience stores, which are also owned by 7-Eleven’s parent company, Seven & i Holdings Co., Ltd.

In celebration of Slurpee Day, 7-Eleven gives away free Slurpees to customers.

7-Eleven parent company stock up 24% over the past year

7-Eleven is owned by Seven & i Holdings Co., Ltd. (OTC Markets OTCPK: SVNDY), based in Tokyo. 

The company just reported its first-quarter results on July 10, in which it posted a profit of 65.1 billion yen ($445.19 million). This profit was mainly due to the performance of its overseas locations, particularly those in the United States, notes RetailNews Asia.

SVNDY shares are currently hovering just below $15 as of the time of this writing, with the stock down about 4.7% since the beginning of the year. 

However, over the past 12 months, Seven & i Holdings has seen its share price surge by over 24%, according to data from Yahoo Finance.
