IRVING, Texas, Sept. 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- What's better than one week of Buy One-Get One-Free Slurpee^® drinks? How about two weeks?! 7-Eleven^® just doubled down on last week's BOGO offer. That means Slurpee-lovers have another week to share a Slurpee or become a two-fisted Green Apple Skittles Slurpee drinker. Pace yourself.

7-Eleven(R) just doubled down on last week's BOGO offer. That means Slurpee-lovers have another week to share any size Slurpee. Pace yourself.

The offer, which originally began Monday, Sept. 12, will now continue through Sunday, Sept. 25, at participating U.S. 7-Eleven stores. Customers who buy any size or flavor Slurpee drink can receive a second Slurpee drink free. The free Slurpee drink can be the same size as purchased or smaller.

Available exclusively at 7-Eleven stores this fall, the featured Slurpee flavor is Green Apple Skittles, which transforms the popular sour candy into a refreshing frozen Slurpee beverage.

"At 7-Eleven, we try to give our customers what they want, need and love," said Laura Gordon, vice president of marketing and brand innovation. "And they love Buy One-Get One Slurpee drinks. So much so that we decided to add a second week and extend the Slurpee party another week."

The retailer continues the Slurpee Fiftee Partee, celebrating the 50^th birthday of its iconic frozen drink. Slurpee fans have celebrated with free Slurpee drinks on 7-Eleven Day (July 11), bringing crazy containers to fill with their favorite drink in March and again in August, and now two Share-a-Slurpee treat weeks.

Part of the Slurpee fun is capturing the experience with photos and sharing it on social media. 7-Eleven is using the hashtag #SLURPEE50 so Slurpee fans can share their experience on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat (username: REALLYSLURPEE).

"Lots of people have been spreading the Slurpee love and surprising people with the free drink they receive when they purchase one," Gordon said. "BOGO Slurpee is a great way to brighten someone else's day with a Slurp-it-Forward free Slurpee."

The 7-Eleven smartphone app is not mandatory to participate in the BOGO Free Slurpee drink event, but 7Rewards^® members can count both the purchased and free Slurpee drinks toward the 7Rewards "Buy Six, Get the Seventh Free" drink offer available on the 7-Eleven smartphone app.

To participate in the 7Rewards program, customers must use 7‑Eleven's mobile app, available in the Apple App Store or Google Play, and register as a member. The member's unique, scannable barcode and digital punch card are located on the app's home screen for easier use.
