Perhaps you've never drank directly from the gallon-sized water cooler at work. There's a first time for everything.
Dallas-based 7-Eleven announced it will be celebrating BYO Cup Day on Saturday, April 11. For $1.49, you can fill your own container with Slurpee mix from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
The "vast majority" of Dallas-area stores will participate, says a 7-Eleven spokesperson.
A few rules:
- Cup must fit in the specified hole, which measures 10 inches in diameter. (See photo above.) So, no, a Dumpster is not an acceptable container.
- Also not acceptable: inflatable swimming pools, says the press release.
- The vessel must be sanitary.
If you're unsure if your container will fit, best bet is to bring a few. Bike helmets and plant pots are not off limits, says USA Today.

If you participate in BYO Cup Day, good luck out there. We'll be on the hunt for your innovative photos, so share 'em on Twitter.
