7-Eleven knows that most people are bound to start 2019 with a big of a hangover, which is why the chain is offering 19-cent coffee and water for all of New Year's Day.

Beginning 12:01AM on New Year's Day—which may still be peak party hour for most people—7-Eleven will begin selling medium cups of fresh brewed coffee and one-liter bottles of 7-Select Pure water for just 19-cents apiece. The catch is that in order to take advantage of the 19-cent coffee and water, consumers will have to sign up for 7-Eleven's loyalty program, 7Rewards. Once the app is downloaded, consumers will be able to access the redeemable coupon. Best of all, any 19-cent coffee or water purchased on New Year's Day counts towards the chain's ongoing 'Buy Six, Get The Seventh Free' drink offer.
