Want a Pepsi code? Comment on this article before midnight!

Today I was buying some clothes (so I have a variety to wear for work) and books from Goodwill, and I also stopped at the grocery store to pick up some basic necessities we were out of. I was in the mood for some soda to celebrate the hoped continuation of good fortune, but they were out of generic sodas, so I had to choose between Coke (at $1.46) or Pepsi (at $1.00)... so, yeah, I've got a Pepsi code. I do use Coke codes, but I really don't want to get into yet another rewards-program-type thing, so... I'm giving this Pepsi code away. If you're interested, here's what I'll do:

I will generate a random number using Random.org's integer generator, from one to however many comments are on this article at midnight. Whichever person left the Nth comment wins -- if the number rolled is ten, the tenth comment wins, and so forth. This means that everyone who comments has a fair shot at winning this. The winner will receive the code via Gather mail.

So. If you happen to be interested in a Pepsi code, leave a comment, or two, or ten, or however many you want, and at midnight, you might be a winner!

Don't do those promos, but just wanted to say "hi."
Patricia J. Sep 16, 2008, 7:18pm EDT
I'll leave a comment but I only have 38 points so one more isn't going to help me much.
Matthew G. Sep 16, 2008, 7:19pm EDT
I would love a free pepsi code : )
Matthew G. Sep 16, 2008, 7:20pm EDT

Missy Cline Sep 16, 2008, 7:28pm EDT

Carla B. Sep 16, 2008, 7:56pm EDT
This is a good way to do it.

We do pepsi points, and are hoping to get a DVD for Elliott for Christmas, but it's looking more like it's going to be a CD for my husband, because we won't have enough points. We just don't drink enough soda.

DB10. Not interested in the Pepsi code but I wanted to give you points.
M C. Sep 16, 2008, 8:49pm EDT

Pat collects Pepsi points...I'm strictly Coke. So far got a T-shirt, a mazgine subscription, and, for Pat, a Subway card with two bucks on it (I've added $5 and will add more when I get paid Friday, gradually build it up until I get it to her ). I have no idea what I'll get next.
Janet "Jax" B. Sep 16, 2008, 9:43pm EDT
I do have a few Pepsi pts...about 19 I think...it just takes so many...

My youngest daughter has loved the Pepsi points. She has gotten many cd's from them.
Heather ~of the Whippets~ M. Sep 16, 2008, 10:02pm EDT
