Today, the 7th of November 2008 (7/11), marked 7-Eleven’s second annual “7-Eleven Day.” Anyone who walked into any of Australia’s 7-Eleven stores, and said to the cashier, “Happy 7-Eleven Day!” would receive a free small Slurpee!
Really cool idea! But not so smart to try redeeming your free small Slurpee at 3.30pm in Bondi Junction, at the same time as every single school child was trying to redeem theirs.
Started off calm enough.
People started to crowd, push and shove…
Then all fucking hell broke loose, these little fucking kids started rushing the store, forcing their way into the store, breaking shit, shoving people out of the way, all for $1.40 worth of Slurpee, which wasn’t frozen in the slightest as the machine couldn’t handle the overuse.
