DALLAS -- More details have come out about 7-Eleven's newest delivery-service offer, including “convenience packs” temptingly titled the “Date Night Pack” or the “Hangover Pack,” for example.

Working in partnership with DoorDash, 7-Eleven began the program Sept. 1 at more than 200 7-Eleven convenience stores in three major cities: New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. Washington, D.C., and Boston will begin participating in coming months.

In Chicago, the $20 Date Night Pack—subtitled “DoorDash & Chill”—brings Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream, a Hershey bar, an 8-ounce can of Red Bull, an 18-piece pack of Trident gum and a 3-pack of condoms to your door in less than 45 minutes.

The $15 Hangover Pack—“Last night was fun …”—includes 7-Select extra-strength Acetaminophen, a 29-ounce Gatorade, a large pepperoni pizza and a smoked turkey and pepperjack sandwich.

Other convenience packs include the $22 Gameday Pack, the $25 Sniffles Pack and the $10.50 Endurance Pack (an energy drink, 5-hour energy and a Clif bar).

À la carte options are available, as well, ranging from a 1-liter smartwater for $3.59 to a Tide To-Go Stain Pen for $5.49. Each delivery includes a $2.99 service fee.

“By working with DoorDash, we can bring on-demand delivery to more people and more places,” Raja Doddala, 7-Eleven’s vice president of innovation and omnichannel strategy, previously told CSP Daily News.

Although alcohol and Slurpees are not currently available for delivery, that could change, according to 7-Eleven spokesperson Margaret Chabris. "We're working toward that, but we're not there yet," she told the Chicago Tribune.
