$3/4 Pepsi 12 Pack

[YouPdWhat]

I received a PM this evening ( Thank you ) alerting me to a possible problematic coupon that is circulating the internet on a well known auction site & in other locations.

The coupon in question is a printable for $3/4 Pepsi 12 Packs. It is being reported that Pepsi has confirmed that it is a counterfeit saying that "we currently do not have any $3/4 coupons in circulation & the packaging in the pic has not been used in over 1 year".





Please note that from this point forward:

• No further discussion or any links associated with this coupon is unauthorized for posting at HCW
• The coupon can not be traded or offered on HCW period. This includes but is not limited to: Data Base, PM, Auction, RAOK, etc.
• From this posting forward any post or attempt to trade by any means is subject to the warning / infraction system.

I will be contacting Pepsi tomorrow & as soon as I have heard back I will post to let everyone know what I have been told.



Thanks for your patience & understanding

I've heard from Pepsi & spoke with the person in charge of Coupon Promotions.



This is what I have been told.

• Pepsi does not currently have any Buy ( 4 ) Pepsi 12 pks. & Get $3 Off coupons in circulation
• There may also be 2 other coupons that may show up as questionable:

1. Buy ( 2 ) 24 oz. Aquafina 6 Pks. Get $1 Off
2. Buy any ( 4 ) Pepsi 2 ltrs. Get $1 Off

I was informed by Pepsi that it is likely that there may have been distributors that circulated flyers ( with 3 coupons ) to their customers' who in turn put them out for their employees during the Holidays .

• Buy ( 4 ) Pepsi 12 Pks. & Get $3 Off
• Buy ( 2 ) 24 oz. Aquafina 6 Pks. & Get $1 Off
• Buy any ( 4 ) Pepsi 2 ltrs. & Get $1 Off

The description of the flyers is as follows:

1. Flyer is 8 1/2 x 11
2. Glossy paper
3. 1 sided
4. Exp. dates of coupons are: 1/31/2010
5. Flyer may have the names of the Companies they were distributed to at the top of the flyer ( see blacked out areas below )

What this all means is someone has taken the flyers & copied the coupons making counterfeit printables that are circulating on the internet through trading forums & auction sites, etc.






So from this point forward:

• No further discussion or any links associated with the printable form of these coupons is authorized for posting at HCW
• The printable form of these coupons can not be traded or offered on HCW period. This includes but is not limited to: Data Base, PM, Auction, RAOK, etc.
• From this posting forward any discussion of, posting of or attempt to trade the printable form of these coupons by any means is subject to the warning / infraction system & may result in you being banned from HCW.
• Coupons from the flyers may be traded as usual but you must state / clarify in your posts, PM's, etc. that the coupons originate from the flyer/s.

Please Note: As we all know, everything is subject to change should further info come forth regarding the 3 coupons mentioned above.

It has been mentioned hundreds of times before but warrants being said again ~ Be careful where you obtain your coupons.


If I receive any further info I will post to keep you informed. If you have any questions feel free to PM me at any time.
