During the month of November, Pepsi Canada started a contest that allowed participants to win an iPod every hour on the hour. We discovered how easy it was to get No Purchase Necessary codes, so we started getting some.
My grandma is very tech-savvy for her age, so she also participated, as she takes long walks and wanted to have her iTunes library with her when they walk. The day she first entered the contest, she won an iPod.
There are contest mailing lists in the province, and my mom was accumulating No Purchase Necessary codes with her friends on the contest. I did too. Then, Pepsi did the unthinkable, they changed how to get No Purchase Necessary codes.
Before they changed, codes could be accumulated as fast as you could type. They turned the form into a survey of sorts that takes 5 minutes or more to answer per entry. Plus, the codes were associated email addresses. We gave up, but my mom's contest-addicted (no offense) friend kept going. A month passed. The week before Christmas, we got a phone call from her saying that she won an iPod, and for all the effort we put in it, she gave it to us.
Now, my grandparents and us each own 20GB iPods.
