    I entered exactly one code in for a Pepsi Prime back at the beginning of the contest, before I decided to stockpile them. Two months and hundreds of codes later, I received Prime in the mail. I had won with the one code I used.

    Not needing a Prime anymore, I decided to dump em all for an X-Box 360. So far that hasn't panned out, but I'm still hopeful!

    I got 3 Pepsi Primes in the mail on Saturday. It wasn't very long ago that I assumed I didn't win any so this was a good surprise.

    Here's a question... Do you save the bottle of Pepsi that comes with Pepsi Prime, or drink it?

    Because of the demand for my "extra," I'm going to be holding a random drawing for them at some point soon. Too many people saying, "Can I have it?" And giving it to the first guy would be impossible, as there's the first guy who responded to me, but there's also several before him that asked for one and didn't seem to get a response. So, sometime soon, random drawing, free to whoever wins. I don't need money for them, as I paid nothing for them. (I drink Pepsi products anyway.) Watch my sig for details in the next few days.

    ETA:
    There is no bottle, empty or full, included with the figure. It's cardboard. Flat cardboard, rolled to look like a bottle.

    What's a fair offer on something that's free? I mean some are ending around $20 on Ebay:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/Transformers-Pepsi-Optimus-Prime-MISB-MIB_W0QQitemZ230175519739QQihZ013QQcategoryZ753QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    others are ending at $30.00

    I'd like to get one for around $15-$20. You make a few bucks & I get a good deal. But some douchebags on Ebay are putting them up at BIN $49.99. I guess it all depends on if you're interested in helping out a fellow collector or if you're out for the money. What say you?

    Unfortunately they weren't all free. I picked mine up for 29.99 from HTS when they were available on there. So it would be hard to tell which Ebay people got them for free, and which actually paid for them. If they did pay, they're losing money with it ending at $30 or under (once you include sales tax).

    I was talking about the one's that DID get it for free. IF you received 3 & only wanted one then why not share the wealth? Sell'em cheap to fellow collectors on here who didn't win. I mean if you received 3 & the other person received 0, it's a good chance you got theirs. For every person that got 3, that means 2 other people that entered the contest got screwed. I happen to be one of them! I paid good money for my Pepsi bottles (and I prefer Coke), I entered my codes, somebody else got my Pepsi Prime. :mad 

    It's really shitty to brag that you got 3 in front of others that didn't get one.

    Excellent. I had a nice little pile of stuff at my front door when I got home today. I can't believe it -- 3 wins:

    [​IMG]

    I also had some fleabay winnings, so there was literally a pile of boxes at my front door.

    I'll post when I decide what I'm going to do with the extras, but I definitely won't be doing anything with them until midterms are done next week.
