Oh thank heavens ... 7-Eleven!

With temperatures in Irvine expected to reach the mid-80s today, you'll want to stay comfortable and cool.

Lucky for you, today happens to be July 11th ... or 7-Eleven Day! Since I rarely miss an opportunity to #shopIrvine and #dineIrvine, I feel like we're even luckier that Irvine is home to six 7-Elevens you can visit today for a free Slurpee between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m.:

​7-Eleven at Culver Plaza (Culver and Irvine Center Drive)

15265 Culver Drive

7-Eleven at the Square (MacArthur Boulevard and Main Street)

17937 MacArthur Boulevard

7-Eleven in Westpark (Culver Drive and Alton Parkway)

3975-B Alton Parkway

7-Eleven in the Sand Canyon Plaza (Sand Canyon Road and Irvine Center Drive)

6602 Irvine Center Drive

7-Eleven at Los Olivos (I-5 and Irvine Center Drive)

8693 Irvine Center Drive

7-Eleven at Alton Retail Center (Alton Parkway and Technology Drive)

15350 Alton Parkway

Visiting our local retailers helps support our local economy. Your purchases generate sales taxes, a portion of which comes back to Irvine to fund services like police, transportation, and parks.

Personally, I enjoy the Coke flavored slurpee, with a little bit of frozen lemonade or cherry.

So, enjoy your favorite flavor in Irvine today, and thanks in advance for your efforts to #shopIrvine and #dineIrvine.
