		<description>Reminded; scenes from &lt;em&gt;Charlie &amp;amp; The Chocolate Factory&lt;/em&gt;: children madly peeking at pepci(sic) bottles, then carelessly dropping them to the store floors. Already feel for store clerks whom sell this product.</description>

		<description>I have to say I am very disappointed in this promotion. I normally drink Coke, but would be willing to drink Pepsi instead to get the silly caps... 

But nearly three weeks have pasted since promotion started, and I am yet to see these caps on any Pepsi bottles any where... I&apos;ve looked high and low, but none can be found.</description>

		<description>Just out of curiosity, since I don&apos;t drink soda pop, how much does a bottle of this Pepsi cost?</description>

		<description>I thought by law these promotions were supposed to offer game pieces by mail with &quot;no purchase necessary.&quot; (This is still a game of chance.) I once &quot;won&quot; a cherios honey bee foam flyer by sending in after my box of breakfast goodness wasn&apos;t a winner. Can we do this for iTunes? Even if you only get one in three, a post card only costs 22 cents to mail.</description>

		<description>As someone at the mother link noted, the only way Pepsi can defeat this scheme is by adding more soda to each bottle.  It&apos;s a win-win situation!</description>

		<description>&quot;To receive one free game piece and a copy of Official Rules, while supplies last, send a self-addressed, stamped envelope postmarked on or before 3/31/04 to: Pepsi iTunes Game Piece, P.O. Box 9205, Young America, MN 55558-9205. Residents of the state of VT may omit return postage. Limit one free game piece per request per stamped outer envelope.&quot;

If you&apos;re not in Vermont, $0.74 a try.</description>

		<description>7-11 also has &quot;itunes BigGulp cups&quot;. You have to tear the cup to see if it&apos;s a winner, but there&apos;s nothing keeping you from filling it with Coke!

&lt;small&gt;not that I ever go to 7-11...&lt;/small&gt;</description>

		<description>I hate Pepsi and all it stands for. I hope people use this trick to make sure there is a high redemption rate and Pepsi gets stuck with the bill for the whole $100 million. I&apos;m sure Pepsi is looking for high breakage for this promotion.</description>

Anyone know of any discounting or coupon promotions for: free pepci(sic)? This way when using the &quot;cheating win method&quot;, it&apos;s all free or near nothing.</description>
