Dude, define "earlier"...I feel absolute stomach horrors after ONE.

I cannot imagine imbibing that much sugar in one setting.

That said, coke slurpees are an amazing thing.

Two summers ago, I was a counselor at this inner city camp. Part of my job was to deliver food bank food to partner churches (I was the mountain biking coordinator, so I had a cush job). On our route that day, my teammate and I hit up 20 different 7-11s across Dallas in an effort to beat another team...we crushed them 20-14. With gas being ~$4 that summer, it was lucky we had the company van! At each stop, we'd get about 3 of the little sample cups they were handing out...as it got closer to 20, that number got closer to...1.

Photographic proof here (except store#20 since my batteries died and some girl who took a picture of us on her camera never emailed it to me):

Hah,...I got my Slurpee right here. There are only three 7 11s in town so it would be much of a tour.

Did you drink the drink twelve 7.11 oz slurpees? I just got one 28 oz Coke Slurpee myself. Honestly no Slurpee binge is complete without belching bile foam halfway through it.

I drank two of the the 34oz Cumberland Farms "NRG" sluprees tonight. I wish they didn't taste so good. They're like sugary sweet laxatives.

I had a slurpee the other day for the first time in 5 years. It was surprisingly refreshing.

Are they like frozen / slush type drinks?

We have the same type of thing I think, but they just have boring names like 'Frozen Coke' etc...

Either way, 12 of anything seems a bit excessive!

this town has the dubious distinction of being the slurpee capital....i can't imagine drinking a 40 oz tub of sugar water but they sell 'em by the truckload here ....that iq lowering thing explains a lot........

Dude, that is not a boring name but actually no-nonsense direction towards the nectar of the Gods.

You guys have made me want a Coke Slush so bad right now, hahaha. I am seriously looking for the closest 7 Eleven right now.
