I made a couple posts before of what I thought were all my Slurpee discs; I split them into
my discs from 1992 and
those from 1985-1991. I also showed a
1982 Slurpee cups checklist I bought recently. I grew up down the street from a 7-Eleven, and that's where I bought a huge number of my 1987 Topps cards when I started seriously collecting cards, in 6th grade.

1992 Slurpee Ryne Sandberg disc. |
We moved out of that house in 1988, and I no longer had convenient access to Slurpees. But by 1992 I was driving, and could get myself to a 7-Eleven. So I have a bunch of 1992 discs.
I got all my cards back from my parents' house a couple of years ago, and left behind some related stuff like wrappers and Donruss puzzle pieces. I was going through that other stuff just recently and found this Sandberg disc had slipped in. It's now back with the cards where it belongs.

Disc back. |
The 1992 Slurpee discs are branded Score, while earlier ones may have been made by the same company but were unbranded. I also bought some of my first Score cards at that same 7-Eleven, when they came out in 1988.
Thanks for reading!
