In 1970, 7-Eleven released a 45 titled "Dance the Slurp" that was given away with Slurpee purchases. The B-side was a comedy bit detailing "strange things" that happen to people who "slurp" at 7-Eleven. The record is considered highly collectible today. In 1999, "Dance the Slurp" was sampled by DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist for their Brainfreeze mix album.
In 1994, 7-Eleven sought to remake Slurpee's "brain freeze" campaign targeted to the adolescent MTV audience. The creative directors assigned the task of creating four new commercials to the Brothers Quay, and Boston-based Olive Jar Animation. Known for their bizzare aesthetic and influence in the stop-motion animations industry, the Quays based their "brain freeze" ad on a late 19th century photograph of a female contortionist. In the commercial, a curtain reveals the contortionist balancing on two chairs, bending over backward to sip a Slurpee. She falls victim to "brain freeze" and turns into an ice cube.
In 1998, 7-Eleven launched Slurpee lip balm to the market. Other "Slurpee-flavored" products have included Slurpee gum, which had a liquid candy center.
In 2004, 7-Eleven created an edible Slurpee straw.
In 2007, as part of the Kwik-E-Mart promotion for The Simpsons Movie, Slurpees at 7-Elevens were renamed "Squishees" and sold in special collector cups.
Starting on November 4, 2008, 7-Eleven worked with Nexon to promote Slurpees to gamers that play on Nexon.net. The Slurpee cups had images printed on them from certain Nexon games, and a code printed on them that could be redeemed on a website for special in-game items.
Also for WWE's Summerslam 2010 7-11 offered collectible Slurpee cups of Rey Mysterio, John Cena, The Undertaker, Kelly Kelly, and Triple H. They also came with collectible straws with figures of each wrestler on them.
Every year on July 11 (7/11, month/day), 7-Eleven offers free Slurpees in the US.
In Australia, free Slurpees are given on November 7 (7/11, day/month) to coincide with 7-Eleven day.
