I suppose you could buy a ton of soda and check the codes without opening them. That way you'd be "stocking up" on soda you would eventually drink anyway, without having to open them all. Just tilt the bottle at the right angle in a dark room with a flashlight pointed through the top. That's only if you have nothing better to do with your time.

Or You could just take the label off the bottle and then drink it later. Its much easier to check that way

what label are you talking about? In Canada are they not under the caps? That would be cool because you could just buy a bit.

I know in Canada the codes are on Frito-Lay products too. That is cool.

I would figure that they would put the codes in the inside so you would have to open them and thus buy more and more rather than peel the codes off and save the product. Also, I imagine people who didn't even buy the product would peel the sticker off in the store!

No, In canada they have the http://www.bethefirsttoplay.com contest and the labels are under the label of the pop bottles and inside the bag of chips. So basically all you have to do is buy them and then take the labels off of them and then drink them as you want them.

If anyone wants we can all combine our used codes and than someone could write a program to see if there is a pattern.

I think if would be cool if after its all done with one monday, they threw some stats up, like highest/lowest total entries, number of people that won on thier first try, area with the most winners. I think it would be kind of interesting to know that stuff.

Anyone notice that on the 10/30 winners board the time goes from 8:50am to 10am? I say this because I supposedly entered my codes into the 9:50 time but can't see on the winners board.

Something funny happened to a friend of mine that won one. They had two winners for his time slot, so are they gonna give both of them out or just one?

I entered the sweeps on 10/17/05 at 9:10 a.m. and the winner was from my city and state, New Cumberland WV, and i live in a city of like 10,000 so the odds are I was the winner. The next day the winner was changed to Malone, NY and I have no idea why. I called the toll free number and they just give me the run around. I think i got ripped off ny pepsi.

I don't think they singled you out to rip-off. You sound like my students at school who get in trouble. "Ohh, you always pick on me, never anyone else." Sure . . .

Yeah,
But I was saving for the xbox 360 for like 6 months and if I was to buy all the pop bottles I wouldn't have been able to Preorder the Xbox 360 in time.

You were probably looking at the times for that day, and not the day before, the date you won. Make sure you click on the date on the mini calander on the side.





I'll see you on Xbox Live...mike814

I am noticing that the Canadian befirsttoplay.com contest is not nearly as popular
