DEWU promotion is a rip off

[morpheusxp]

I have been collecting these codes for for months now. I finally have more than enough to recieve an Xbox. But I cannot get an Xbox. Why? Because for weeks now it has been labeled as coming soon. I check everyday twice a day. I checked this morning before leaving for work. I come home to check only to find that they are "SOLD OUT"! That is rediculus am I expected to check on the status of the availabilty of the Xbox on an hourly basis 24 hours a day? I belive this whole thing has been a rip off! :x

[stocker08]

no, it isn't. i have been collecting them too, and i need about 50 more. today when i got back from this thingy, i checked their website and it was available. i didnt have enough but i wish i did have enough at the time. i will have to wait for the next ones. you just have to be sure to check a ton, because the xboxs sell out in less than 2 hours!

i have noticed that there aren't any dew u things on the new boxes and bottles anymore. i dont understand it but i will get the last 50 points i need hopefully!

[Draccius]

Yeah, I am in the same boat. I have enough, but to no avail. It's basically a matter of chance now. I understand they don't have enough of the limited, but it would be nice if there wasn't a limit on the regular systems. It was quite a bit of work to get to this many points!

[stocker08]

it really sucky that i didn't have enough today. it will probably be another month or so until more become available........ i was only 50 short. well, i dont work duringthe summer so ya know. if i see any more available, i will be sure to pm you guys.

I'm curious, how much money did you blow on dew versus just buying an xbox?

[stocker08]

not much. actually, i got most of mine from friends and neibors, oh, and i got quite a few here too :-)

[argyle]

Meh, I've resigned myself to not getting anywhere near enough points for the Xbox. I'm just shooting for one of those light-up Dew signs now. :P

[scuba]

just sell them on ebay, I am sure you could get 200 or so for them and then just buy that green halo xbox

[Missingdata]

My goodness...

You guy are my hero....

U guy really collect those thingy....

I give up after knowing i can't drink that much dew in my life

[scuba]

A while back these points would go for more on ebay

thats a good deal, an xbox for 125 bucks, and a mountain dew xbox

I dont think it is a rip off pop, soda, coke companies make millions everymonth really they just dont buy enough to give cause they are cheap money hungry ceo

[morpheusxp]

I called and talked to one of there reps and was told that they only release 1000 Xboxs once a month. He said that there are hundreds of thousands of ppl that have collected enough points to recieve an Xbox and that it is just a matter of being on the website at the right time. That is such BS they should have known they would need more than 1000 Xboxs a month.

A friend of mine got his Mountain Dew Xbox the other day. Caution, the picture is mildly distrubing.

I didn't know it was solid bright green!! I thought it was a translucent one like th Halo edition. Now i'm really glad i didn't bother trying to get one....

[pimp_daddy_smurf]

Doesn't it hurt to dip the xbox in green, lead-based paint?
