Burger King giving away free Kinects every 15 minutes!

[quote name='CactiNomad']No, I missed this! :([/QUOTE]

Don't worry, there'll be tons of sweepstakes for the Kinect. Microsoft is going to make sure there is.
 
[quote name='xxFiNALiiZExx']OMG! Wow, BK sold my email to Gamefly. I'm getting tons of Gamefly offers.[/QUOTE]
Doubtful. Something else you singed up for is the cause. I try to use unique emails for promotions, and I have not received a single message on any of the emails I used for the BK one.

I had used an unique email too. I never signed up for anything other than the Burger King Promotion. Now I have about 6 Gamefly offers in my inbox.

EDIT: Got a shipping notification 1 minute after I posted that. So wins from the 27th have shipped.
 
The packages that shipped out today do not have ANY references. So, the previous methods of searching, or for determining which wins had shipped, will no longer work.

Really? Mine says this:

Reference Number 1: BURGER KING-BKK-2010112741-**** ***
Reference Number 2: [email protected]

Where the **** are parts of my name. Is it possible they just switched the references, so that the wunderman thing use to be #1, and it's now #2?

Are you sure about that? On the tracking for my package the wunderman reference is listed, and when I tried the tracking by reference it came up. Maybe mine is an anomaly, but I doubt that.
 
I received my tracking info as well and wunderman was listed as the reference. No listed delivery date yet, as its still just in "Billing information received"

I went back and loaded up the same tracking numbers I had scanned before, and they have reference numbers now, too... I guess they just hadn't finished uploading their data yet? Going to have to re-scan now... Ugh!

Mine shipped 2day. Coming on Dec 16th. As for the hard drive, there's 1 left on ebay. Pm me for a link... Might be sold out.
 
I'll have my bundle on Wednesday but I'm leaving to go on vacation tomorrow and won't be home until Christmas day. Looks like I'll have a nice gift waiting on me whenever I get home!

Instructions for searching to see if your's shipped and you simply didn't get the email (yet?):

- go to the UPS Search by Reference web page;
- use "[email protected]" a the Shipment Reference field (no quotes);
- set the Destination Country to US;
- set the Destination Postal/ZIP Code to your ZIP code;
- click Track.

Keep in mind that this will show all of the BK Kintect prize packages headed to the zip code indicated, so if you find one (or more), it could be yours, or one headed to one of your neighbors. If you want to verify that the package is yours, you can give UPS a call at 1-800-PICK-UPS (742-5877). They won't tell you the address to which the package is being sent, but if you provide your address they will usually confirm if it is the same as the one on the package.

Note: now that they are including the recipient's name in the reference numbers (tsk-tsk), you can simply create an account on the UPS web site (free) and check the tracking number(s) you get from the search. When logged in, you will see the reference numbers (including the recipient's name) along with the other shipping info.

Sorry to rain on your parade, but the Xbox 360 needs an adult signature. Unless someone signs for it, UPS won't deliver it.:bomb:

It all depends on the individual ups guy. Not everyone follows the rules, some people are chill bud smokers that aren't all anal about rules.

I wouldn't count on that, given that it's part of their job and they're on the line if you call in and complain that someone stole your package. Someone posted the same thing a few posts back, followed by an angry post that the UPS guy they knew still required a signature. I'd arrange for someone to get the package for you, if you can.

You obviously live in a fantasy world. I've worked as a cable installer and we weren't supposed to enter a home without an adult but there were guys who did anyways. People put their jobs on the line all the time.

All right, dude, whatever. I was trying to be helpful, but yes, I'm the one "living in a fantasy world," when you're the one assuming that the UPS guy is going to put his job at risk for absolutely no reason just cause he's a cool dude who smokes bud.

I've never been ID'd for a package even when ID has been required.
 
I may be in the minority here but I don't want some sketchy stoner who's indifferent about his job handling my deliveries. I'd like my things to arrive safely and un-stolen, but that's just me.
 
If the pkg. requires am adult signature, the driver will not leave it without one. Whoever shipped the pkg paid for that service. Their are many differences between a cable installer and a ups driver. One of which is the ups driver values his job and gets paid more than minimum wage. I'm own my own business that gets shipments on almost a daily basis. Guess who has to sign for those pkgs every day, even though the ups guy has been the same person for 4+ years.

First of all cable installers start at $16 an hour with $80,000 life insurance, 4 weeks paid vacation and unlimited free services, phone tv and net. A vehicle to drive to and from work, about $5000 in cable tools and equipment, free gas, and full health dental and vision. So how do you figure cable guys don't value their jobs? The simple fact is there are people in every job that just don't care. I've had Beta Mod chips that had to be signed for but the guy never ID'd me.

I have no idea where you heard cable installers only make minimum wage but you heard wrong. infact $16 Hour is starting wage, not to mention the raises for taking classes which the company pays for.

Adult signature requires a signature. It doesn't require the UPS driver check your ID.
 
[quote name='SlammedNiss']Adult signature requires a signature. It doesn't require the UPS driver check your ID.[/QUOTE]

That is my point, they don't really need an adult sig, cuz when I used to beta test mods I was only 16 and was never ID'd. I am not saying they will drop it at his door, but if someone is at his home they could sign even if they aren't an adult. And trust me I didn't look 18 then, I still get carded for spray paint and I'm 28!

Ah, yeah, you can get away with that. They don't ID you unless they are super anal, or you look 12 (maybe). But they're not going to drop it without a signature.

I'm suprised they don't give out drug test, I don't have a problem with it but still you'd think with all those benefits that they'd want sober employees.

ID isn't a requirement. It's obviously at the driver's discretion whether or not you look of age to accept the package.

They do drug test. Its extremely easy for someone to beat a pisses test. Also who cares if someone smokes pot, its not like they are high 24/7. I'd rather someone high do my cable than someone drunk. I saw a lot of drinking and even some people who were snorting coke between jobs, that is far worse than someone smoking pot. Utility poles are high, I wouldn't want to climb them drunk or high. Every job has drug users, alcohol is a drug. Most cops use coke because it doesn't show up on tests after a couple days. People love drugs nothing will ever change that.
