Anyone wanna join me in class action suit since they made their rules nutty?





So is it no purchase necessary

Or do i need to make a purchase in order to have a receipt?

EDIT: And what am I doing wrong with this code. Cant get the images embedded anymore now that jmgur changed its site access

[edit by mod image link fixed. brace was misplaced and link was wrong anyway]

Double fixed. I added the 2nd photo showing the confusing rules

Does it only pay 6/5 when you buy eight cans? You might have a case.
Have you tried 22 tonight? I said 22.

It’s probably a variant of ranch dressing people can’t for the life of them stop putting ranch into things as a flavor and it’s just wrong

Go to op and look at the 2 pics.

Can says to participate take a photo of your receipt and log your entry online

Second pic shows can saying no purchase necessary

So do I need a receipt of my purchase or not?

I think we can let the case for the prosecution rest while we mods deliberate

Well you don’t actually have to purchase it yourself, you can use one of about 300 peoples receipts that give you permission right? So no purchase necessary.

Whats wrong with Walgreens?

I dont go shopping based on how much income I make. I go based on what interests I have.

There was a walgreens on the corner and I wanted some pringles

You must have had Nathan blocked a while. The 'in joke' is that she worked at Walgreens.

So.... Now you are supposed to say. "But I'm not Nathan, honest"

Ok I had no idea.

I really followed the Nathan thing occasionally. I didnt memorize her work vocation, lol.

Who knows she probably served me.

I think the sales clerks name was Kentry on the tag

You guys do realize I have no intention of suing pringles, right?

It was a thread in relation to the wynn lawsuit thread about the rules of blackjack being confusing and actionable as a class action.

I saw the pringles can and said, yep here is another one.

I brought a pringles mystery flavor can.

A box of pampers and milk.

2 bananas (one for me one for the infant)

A phone card for my girlfriend to restore her service. Her name is not Kentry or Nathan although I personally find her luscious and sweet :)

I don't know how someone can guess a flavor without tasting the product. Perhaps you can eat from the can without prosecution as long as you don't lick a chip and put it back. Otherwise, how would someone know the flavor was ball sweat or whatever it was.

Yes, I would fear with all his flailing around while shouting," hey look at me, hey look at me" he might stumble and accidentally cut down something on my property. Chances are the kid knows how to start the chain saw and slash at stuff, Just enough to be dangerous to himself and others. He may very well cut down a few correct trees here and there. Of course, he thinks he is a feared master lumberjack, yet, he has no clue what that really means, he just knows he cuts up stuff and thinks he must be good.

We usually fear that which we have had bad experiences with.

Get bit by dog, fear dogs.

Get robbed by black man, fear black men

So when did u get infested with fleas and lice that you have such fears and phobias?

It's been a standard regulation since at least the 1960s, when I was a kid. Some states, if not all, require a way, no matter how convoluted, to enter an advertised contest without having to purchase something to win. It had to do with sweepstakes abuses before that, and is gambling by definition if you MUST pay to play, so state and federal governments stepped in.

If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

I like Pringles but I doubt that I have bought a can in a store in over 10 years. I did buy a small can on an airplane a few years ago.
At my age, a "Life In Prison" sentence is not much of a deterrent.

It just says you don't have to purchase the product. You can still taste it. One person can buy a can and ten people can sit around eating it trying to guess and sending in entry forms.

Come to think about this Dark OZ, you already mirrored a situation like this when your lack of knowledge helped set off a domino effect that ultimately killed the $5 machines at the Plaza.
