Pepsi -=( Free Xbox 360 )=-

Apparently Pepsi will give out an Xbox 360 every 10 minutes

Go here for info

http://pepsi.yahoo.com/everyten/home2.php

Not sure how legit this is, a Pepsi website on Yahoo?

I ran into this promotion at http://www.geek.com/news/geeknews/20...0830032090.htm

And they got it from here http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3143221

Well anyway, if you drink soda (am laying off the stuff), you may want to give it a try

Pepsi's Star Wars contests were via Yahoo, so I'm reasonably certain its legit.

Nakilos · 08-31-2005, 11:14 AM

There was a commercial for it on tv last night so seems legit!

Soriak · 08-31-2005, 11:43 AM

You should be able to sign up for it even without a code... I bet it has a "no purchase required" disclaimer

the gear you can collect with points looks pretty cool

It's seems completely legit. I went to go see transporter 2 last friday. They had special cups that were green with the "XBOX 360 EVERY 10 MINUTES ON IT!" You had to peel back the label and what not..go online..enter some shit. I forgot and threw out my soda

Maybe I'm missing something but when I was surfing around that site the "Countdown Timer" kept going back to 5:40 after each time it loaded the new page. What's the deal with that?

Luthair · 10-14-2005, 06:18 PM

I thought I'd bump this thread since the contest is active and I've already won one in the Canadian version

Microsoft found a new business model. Since they can't sell machines to actual people, they sell them to corporations that offer them as prizes...

Now it is true that one may wonder who is paying what in such a competition because ultimately it's advertisement for both the Pepsi and Xbox360 brand.

0 for 2

Bleh, I was gonna buy a 12 pack of dew and give it a shot when it first started, but never got around to it. Now the odds have gone from like 1 in 30 to 1 in 300 =\ That's if you put ~10 points in one drawing.

Luthair · 10-17-2005, 03:01 PM

With the Canadian one its 1 per hour and we can request no purchase codes online (also 1/hour)! Near the start of the contest it was ~1200-1700 entries an hour, but we've seen up to 4500 now.

I should be getting the carrying case, & misc junk this week then the 360 in a month ><

sl4ck3r · 10-17-2005, 04:14 PM

hah. i was looking at where people have won in md since that's where i'm from. i randomly clicked a date and the first place i saw was my hometown. now that be pretty damn random.

emuporium · 10-17-2005, 05:35 PM

I just bought 64 codes by offering gold for them in Ironforge, combined with all the caps I steal from the break room at work, I'd say my chances are roughly zero still.
