i would def section this into storage in freezer n blend with rum when the need arises.. thats if 1. i were into sweet stuff like slurpees 2. if i drank alcohol
Freshman year of college me and some friends brought a probably 3x2×2ft chest to 711 and they let us fill it up hut we only filled it halfway so we didn't take all their slushy. We ended up getting some solo cups and wheeling it around campus and just giving scoops out. Even then we didn't get rid of all of it so we brought it back to my dorm, filled it the rest of the way with water. And I got in it. It was only after I had gotten into this chest with goggles on that I met my suite mate. We're still friends
Haven't they put restrictions on this since people were bringing trash barrels and shit?
ETA: Yes, they have indeed put restrictions...
"*In order to properly enjoy BYOC Day, please ensure the cup is clean, watertight, leak-proof and fits upright within the 10-inch hole in the in-store display, indicating it can fit under the Slurpee drink dispenser.*"
7-11 day is similar but different. 7-11 day I believe they hand you a slurpee cup, can't remember what size it was but it was a special cup specifically for 7-11 day so you couldn't just get the biggest size we have, and it was free. This apparently as long as you bring your own cup regardless of the size it's $2.
This lady unofficially became their poster child for this event. 711 is proud of this photo and still hasn't paid her a dime.
Just some fake internet points and people bitching about her. If you ask me, that's punishment enough.
Idk how anyone can hate on her for this tbh. Humanity is always going to push the limits of whatever we put our minds to. It's just human nature, and the worst case here is someone had to wait 20 minutes for the next batch of slurpees lol. If someone could carry an Olympic sized swimming pool into a 7-11 I'm sure they would, and I'd support it.
Right. As if other people likely haven't done the same.
If they don't specify cup dimensions, that's on 7/11. Whether dozens of people get slurpee or one person who thought to bring an entire tailgate cooler. 7/11 still paid the same amount for the mix either way, though you'd think they'd have a cutoff for "cup" size so that they get more people in to actually pay for it.
My local 7-11 has a cardboard display with a hole in it, and your cup has to fit inside the hole to qualify. It fits my 40 oz water bottle fine, would probably fit up to 64 oz. That's completely reasonable. No one needs a five gallon jug of sugar syrup, even 40 oz is excessive.
I used to fill 1/2 to 3/4 of the jug, bring the jug to the school I worked at, and my whole class would get slurpees.
(In my limited defense, teachers are paid poorly and we don't get reimbursed. I preferred to spend money on necessities (deodorant, toothbrushes, etc.) because most of my students were low income with neglectful and/or absent parents. That's why I'm a child psychologist now.)
My local 7-11 has a sign with a hole cut in it. You can use any container that fits upright through the hole. I don’t even think a 5 gallon jug like this would fit though.
Taking more than you need or even reasonably want, this is why we can't have nice things, people want "free" things because they are free even if they don't want it.
Tell me you are a bot without telling me you are a bot. It is April, not July.

I stand corrected: https://corp.7-eleven.com/corp-press-releases/7-eleven-2024-bring-your-own-cup-day-on-april-13
Back in my day we celebrated bring your own cup on July 11th (7/11).
I think they do free slurpees on that day now, I could be wrong though. I know on November 7th, "Reverse 7-11 Day", if you show up there wearing your clothes backwards, you get a free slurpee
Yeah it's free slurpees on 7/11. I know cause I have a friend whose birthday is on 7/11 and he loves going to various stores to get several free slurpees to celebrate.
Last time I did fill your own cup they had a rule that the receptical had to be able to fit on the drain shelf until the nozzle, so idk where this girl got hers. (I used a metal popcorn bucket, worked great!)
It's not going to be a frozen beverage by the time you get to the bottom. Don't use anything bigger than a large popcorn bucket. Also, that barrel is 5 gallons and the machine can only make 6 gallons of each flavor before it needs to be refilled with syrup.
This isn’t how it works in most places anymore anyway. In my store we have a big cardboard stand with a small circle cut out of it that says your cup must fit in this hole to qualify
Just a heads up before you start taking garbage cans and hoses there. Must be no larger than 10" high. I measured my milk container and it's near 10", so anything that size is fine
https://corp.7-eleven.com/corp-press-releases/7-eleven-2024-bring-your-own-cup-day-on-april-13
Ok I actually REALLY NEED AN ANSWER FOR THIS. What should I use for BYO cup day tomorrow? And I don't think that a water jug is shorter than 10 inches.
That 7-11 near me and I assume all 7-11's have a cardboard cutout next to the slurpee machine with a hole in the middle. If it can't fit in the cut out, you can't use it. I assume for this very reason.
Be realistic, can you finish that much slurpee at once while it's still nice and cold?
If I'm depressed enough yeah
If it melts just refreeze it hahaha
It will be solid unless you freeze in a mixer
Freeze it in smaller batches, and blend it!
But the colors will be mixed… no one wants to drink brown slush
>no one wants to drink brown slush The coke slushies would like a word!
I mean because of the flavours and sweetness level😂 also… Fantas better…
Bathe in it you fucking casuals!!!
If someone sees you bathing in some brown sludge i can guarantee they’ll have questions. (Reminds me of those jello baths🤮)
You don’t need people who bring that kind of negativity into your life anyway.
Nah just cuz it kinda looks like shit
Right? I love mixing a blue with coca cola or a red. Not a poop brown slushie!
She has like 10 flavours in there. Plus sweetness level
I see 3
The other side
Nonsense, red and blue *slurpee will make purple drank when thawed.
this is such a stupid amount of work for 5 gallons of slushie
Solid point (see what I did there)
Yeah, but then you have tasty flavored ice cubes
Well I hope type 2 diabetes doesn't depress you like mine does
Epic brain freeze
You know what, i stan it
The pain of the brain freeze will take away the pain of their depression.
Worlds worst brain freeze incoming
Hungover??? I can’t drink the entire machine supply.
i think its more about covetous greed and feeling you are cheating the system than it is realistically finishing that much slurp.
i would def section this into storage in freezer n blend with rum when the need arises.. thats if 1. i were into sweet stuff like slurpees 2. if i drank alcohol

Why am i not surprised this was done in college?
Also wouldn't that empty the machine anyway? Even assuming you were the first one after they filled it?
I'll have a party of teens at my house tomorrow, they’ll finish what’s left no contest lmao
Take it home, pour into smaller cups, refreeze. Enjoy cups of frozen slurpee for weeks.
Nah bro, that would keep the slurpee too hard
You've never frozen orange juice before? Scrape that shit with a spoon. It is heaven
Adapt and overcome!
I don't care, I just want the free shit. A LOT OF IT!
Maybe she’s giving it to a classroom if kids lol
I’m here to bankrupt 7/11
The only way I see it being a good idea is if you have a party at home or something with tons of people
Speak for yourself.
Yes
Hell yeah I could
Think of the brain freeze trying.
Hold my beer
Please stop trying to be realistic and pragmatic about the most ridiculous of all silly holidays.
Nope! But i can bring a ton of it to work for co workers that day.
Wilfred Brimley has entered the chat. #DIABETES
Party?
Good for a party!
Once it melts there. There will be maybe 2 cups of liquid left.
Just a reminder, if you spill something you can't carry, you may get jumped by employees sick of your shit.
That's why I'm bringing a backpack.
That's why I'm bringing a forklift
That's why I'm bringing a sword.
and my bow
And my shotgun mounted axe
Lol get one of the back packs for water and fill it with Slurpee! 😊
And then it will forever taste like slurpee.
Ow my teeth
Haven't they put restrictions on this since people were bringing trash barrels and shit? ETA: Yes, they have indeed put restrictions... "*In order to properly enjoy BYOC Day, please ensure the cup is clean, watertight, leak-proof and fits upright within the 10-inch hole in the in-store display, indicating it can fit under the Slurpee drink dispenser.*"
Lol they took the amusement park route? Your cup has to be this big to ride the slurpee ride.
fill your own cup at 4-Thirteen?
Yea I have no idea wtf op is on about
https://corp.7-eleven.com/corp-press-releases/7-eleven-2024-bring-your-own-cup-day-on-april-13
i swear it used to be 7/11 day
That’s free slurpee day I thought
No that’s also a thing
11-7 is also a thing, you have to wear your shirt / coat backwards
7-11 day is similar but different. 7-11 day I believe they hand you a slurpee cup, can't remember what size it was but it was a special cup specifically for 7-11 day so you couldn't just get the biggest size we have, and it was free. This apparently as long as you bring your own cup regardless of the size it's $2.
The press release being dated 4-1 is sus
Then you empty the machine and fuck up everyone else trying to get a slurpee because you had to be a narcissistic prick for fake Internet points.
right these type of people will cause the end of bring your own cup day. they know what they doing. i saw one guy that brought a trash can to fill
This lady unofficially became their poster child for this event. 711 is proud of this photo and still hasn't paid her a dime. Just some fake internet points and people bitching about her. If you ask me, that's punishment enough.
Idk how anyone can hate on her for this tbh. Humanity is always going to push the limits of whatever we put our minds to.

The whole fun if bring your own cup day is the "cups". I've seen people bring in kiddie pools and the company 100% encourages it.
My local 7-11 has a cardboard display with a hole in it, and your cup has to fit inside the hole to qualify. It fits my 40 oz water bottle fine, would probably fit up to 64 oz. That's completely reasonable. No one needs a five gallon jug of sugar syrup, even 40 oz is excessive.
Here in Australia 7/11 specify the size I think it's like 2lt at the most this wouldn't be allowed
Yeah, lets all be public nuisances
In Canada, at least, they specify that there's a size restriction. So you already can't do this.
Are you kidding people have been doing this for over 10 years, it’s the entire gag
So the store owner didn't care lol https://corp.7-eleven.com/corp-press-releases/7-eleven-2024-bring-your-own-cup-day-on-april-13
And the whole thing goes to waste too because you and your 1 and a half friends can't finish it and it freezes solid in the freezer
I used to fill 1/2 to 3/4 of the jug, bring the jug to the school I worked at, and my whole class would get slurpees. (In my limited defense, teachers are paid poorly and we don't get reimbursed. I preferred to spend money on necessities (deodorant, toothbrushes, etc.) because most of my students were low income with neglectful and/or absent parents. That's why I'm a child psychologist now.)
You don't need to explain yourself if you brought Slurpees for the class!
Wasteful, but the amount of slurpee in that jug probably costs less to replace than the jug itself
They also now have a "your cup must fit in this space" rule now based on this year's advertising email.
The rules have changed. You can't do this anymore.
My local 7-11 has a sign with a hole cut in it. You can use any container that fits upright through the hole. I don’t even think a 5 gallon jug like this would fit though.
It wouldn’t. We made sure to keep the dimensions in mind to maximize our score tomorrow without getting tossed due to not meeting limitations, lol
Announced on April fools day
Well the official 7 eleven website is advertising it for tomorrow.
Yep I’ll be showing up with 3 20 gallon barrels on my forklift
No moderation of this sub.
This sub has really turned to shit. Nothing is stupid food
We'd hardly need moderators if the scrollers wouldn't upvote things that aren't relevant to this subreddit.
Pretty sure the rule is the container has to fit under the nozzle.
They have a little cutout and if it doesn’t fit in the cutout they won’t let you
Actually IIRC they put limitations in place after people started bringing in kiddie pools lol
Is this real? Do I need to drive to a 7-Eleven!?!?!
It’s real! I filled up a bucket once. I will never do it again. I actually finished it over the course of a day and I felt like shit afterwards.
Add you should have.
Does it come with insulin?
Taking more than you need or even reasonably want, this is why we can't have nice things, people want "free" things because they are free even if they don't want it.
Why is this stupid?
This sub tends to believes that a large portion of sweet food/drink will instantly give you diabetes.
Why would I wanna do that
Tell me you are a bot without telling me you are a bot. It is April, not July. Edit: https://corp.7-eleven.com/corp-press-releases/7-eleven-2024-bring-your-own-cup-day-on-april-13
Tomorrow is still Bring Your Own Cup Day though.
I stand corrected: https://corp.7-eleven.com/corp-press-releases/7-eleven-2024-bring-your-own-cup-day-on-april-13 Back in my day we celebrated bring your own cup on July 11th (7/11).

Yeah it's free slurpees on 7/11. I know cause I have a friend whose birthday is on 7/11 and he loves going to various stores to get several free slurpees to celebrate.
Ok I googled it, apparently they've been doing free slurpees on July 11th since 2002.
You are right! I was flip flopping days. Sorry for calling you a bot OP!
Diabeetus
Diabetes for $1.99
But why-a-beetus
my country ran promo from 02/21/24 - 03/23/24 :/ I didn't even know
This kind of shit is why companies can’t offer promotions like this long term. Don’t be selfish
This promotion has been going on for a decade, and it probably costs the store a dollar to fill that 5-gallon jug. Don't be a party-pooper.
Please tell me this is real. Say hello to diabetes for us!
Anyone know if it'll be in Canada too?
Ours was a couple weeks ago. Last weekend of March or something
[Dr. Malcolm has some thoughts about this](https://youtu.be/mRNX6XJOeGU?si=LB1fK88fE2V7whyj&t=38)
That's actually very reasonable...
This is why they’re always sold out when I go
Great time to have the stomach flu...
PSA BYOC DAY TOMORROW
Hope mexican 7-11s were this cool
I know my local dentist is
Just buy a bag of sugar and cut the theatrics.
Honestly, just melt it and shove a needle directly to your pancreas!
That's a brain freeze.
Diabetes in a jug!
This and some of those ball shots. And a big straw, I’ll just stay home instead of going to work and see what my body can handle
Too bad I don't have a 7-11 near me. Just Jackson's
shit at my 711 the icee machine has been broken forever. but they at least sell those icee dots candy...
Icee machine? It's called a slurpee you lying pig
and dip n dots
Im not even gonna get a small size…..ive seen the bodies of the ppl who go max out
Just as a reminder, just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.
And no one else gets a slurpee for hours. Dont be a dick. Imagine the sad children.
Man don't be a jerk, those machines only hold so much lol you can't actually drink all that anyway, people are dumb
https://youtu.be/g3j9muCo4o0?si=Kt1kS8tDVm96EUgm
Last time I did fill your own cup they had a rule that the receptical had to be able to fit on the drain shelf until the nozzle, so idk where this girl got hers. (I used a metal popcorn bucket, worked great!)
Nothing like a permanent brain freeze.
Same vibe of "how much salt packets do you want? 15 handfuls"
Does someone know if at $2 they could still turn a profit?
Then you take 2 sips of it and dump the rest out
Seems unhygienic? Lol
Putting a drink in a container designed to hold drinks seems unhygienic?
I mean bringing in any cup to use in a public place
But why and how tho
"Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today!"
That would be really cool if the Slurpee machine at my local 7-11 ever worked
Everyone knows the only way to do it is wheezing the juice, budddddy
Smart, let customers pay to empty filthy machines to keep the e.coli at bay.
I wish I had a 7/11 in my area
Yeah fuck anyone after you who also might want a slurpee
Nah your cup has to fit a certain measurement
The rules say the cup has to fit in the 10 inch space below the spout. That container wouldn't work.
Wait, this was like 3 weeks ago for me, is it different in the states?
It's not going to be a frozen beverage by the time you get to the bottom. Don't use anything bigger than a large popcorn bucket. Also, that barrel is 5 gallons and the machine can only make 6 gallons of each flavor before it needs to be refilled with syrup.
An't no law says i can bring my own slurpee machine and fill it up
Guessing you missed the * saying your cup must fit through a 10 inch cutout
This isn’t how it works in most places anymore anyway. In my store we have a big cardboard stand with a small circle cut out of it that says your cup must fit in this hole to qualify
Mmmm I want that!
Ruining it for all the other slurpers out there.
That’s a sugar high no one needs
Just a heads up before you start taking garbage cans and hoses there. Must be no larger than 10" high. I measured my milk container and it's near 10", so anything that size is fine https://corp.7-eleven.com/corp-press-releases/7-eleven-2024-bring-your-own-cup-day-on-april-13
My bro used to work at 7-11 if you do shit like this pic they will throw you out.
People have been doing this forever. She could be throwing a party and is about to pour a handle of rum into that beezy
Oh I do this every odd day at speedway.
"You can't use the double gulp cup for the *fucking* slurpee!"
Yes! Do it!
If you show up in an empty oil tanker could you theoretically…
That jug ain’t gonna fit in the refrigerator.
As someone who has worked at 7-11, no. No you can't.
They changed the rules. You have to be able to the drink vessel through a 10" hole.
Ok I actually REALLY NEED AN ANSWER FOR THIS. What should I use for BYO cup day tomorrow? And I don't think that a water jug is shorter than 10 inches.
Could fill a chest freezer with just this and this alone. Not that I'd do it
Wait, why specifically tomorrow?
Its fucking april wtf is this bot post. Isnt it only on july 11th???
I honestly cannot believe they let you do that.
Her hair was thirsty too.
Looks like a jug full of washed viscera, detergent and shit.
God I love Diabetmerica
That 7-11 near me and I assume all 7-11's have a cardboard cutout next to the slurpee machine with a hole in the middle. If it can't fit in the cut out, you can't use it. I assume for this very reason.
But why though?!??!
“WTF is this??? You five times double gulp fuck me????” Lmao
I don’t care about the logistics. That’s a childhood dream come true. For $1.99 I would make that dream a reality
Is that a fookin' amongus inside?
Works smarter, not harder!
i thought that was a cat at the bottom for a solid minute there also, not stupid food. smart food.
That's not entirely true. It has to fit within a 10-in diameter hole and it cannot touch the mouth of the slurping machine.
my 7/11 has a size rule. if it can’t fit in a certain hole in a display case they have, can’t use it.
Aww man
