If you haven’t heard of Prime Day, well, you have probably been living under a bridge. Really, no matter who you are, how can you complain about getting a free Slurpee? And if you don’t like Slurpees, then you have problems.īut, since the numbers “7” and “11” are both prime numbers, and Amazon already has millions of customers locked in paying $99 a year for its Prime service, it’s natural that the online retailing behemoth would use today as a way of pumping up all the things you can buy there via its annual Prime Day promotion. It’s also the easiest marketing day of the year for 7-11 Stores, because there is a natural hook between the name of the business and the date.Īnd, of course, there is the free Slurpee deal that runs from 11 a.m.

Or, if you’re into poker, write out the full house that is 7/11/17. Prime Time: Today was July 11, which is one of the most fun dates to write of all the days of the year.
