Lovers of Slurpees have options available at the new 7-Eleven on South State: they can slurp out, or they can slurp in. That's because unlike most 7-Elevens, which are single story and sell everything to go, this one is two stories with a forty-four-seat dining area on the second floor. There's a big TV, wi-fi, and three huge windows fronting State Street that let in plenty of light. People can carry up any food or beverage they bought downstairs, take a load off, and eat or drink (or slurp) while they study, read, or relax with

What's happening in local stores and eateries, and restaurant reviews.
