I too am a fan of the Original Slurpee. Sadly, I live where the 7-11 isn't. The local corner mart Speedway, has a Slurpee replica type machine. Not an Icee thankfully as those things are atrocious. They are pretty decent as a facsimile of the original. There is a Speedway on my way home that has the Coke mix set just right, in that sweet spot between over fluffy, airy, and over syrupy, sticky. When it is right, it is near perfect diabetic bliss.
For the OP, the machine do cycle through freeze-thaw often throughout the day. If no sign is posted that the machine is out of order, you may have just hit it at a bad time. Wait a while, sometimes as little as 15 minutes, and it might be frozen up again.
They don't feature them often, but I have enjoyed a Dr. Pepper Slurpee and the coveted Root Beer Slurpee.
