X11/6/10 P&G Cooking up Early Detection kitchenware set?

[Merczilla]

In my ad for my local boy (not a national chain) today, there's a tiny (and I mean TINY) form for buy $25 of P&G in one transaction, get a free pink kitchenware set from Good Cooks Hope line. I can make out it's valid from 09/22/10 to Nov/06/10 (don't hold me to that, I can barely make it out), but I can't read anything else. My store didn't have any tearpads that they were aware of and Jerry said he didn;t even see it when he proofread the ad. It says at the top "Available at Market Place" of which there are none of those up here. Don't know if this is a print error that shouldn't even be in my ad or not.

I have emailed P&G for clarification, but was wondering is any of you down there have seen this? I know there was a similar promo last year for this and that's all I can find anything about online.

Oh man, I hope so!!! I got the set last year and I am in love with the pan, I make just about everything I can get away with in it. Hopefully they're gearing this up again all over the area, that would be great!

I just saw in my Shopko ad this promotion is shown (doesn't really have a lot of additional details than the OP though)...

"FREE 8-pc. pink kitchenware set by mail**
Purchase $25 of P&G products in one transaction and receive a FREE kitchenware set from Good Cook's Hope line by mail. A $36.00 value. **See store for details."

The picture shows a saucepan with lid, wisk, bottle brush, scrub brush, and 3 spatula/pancake turner type tools (one has 3 slots in it, the other two look to be solid - one might be a spoon, but it is hard for me to tell).

This is th email response I got when I asked about it:

I'm sorry for the confusion but the Cooking Up Early Detection free kitchenware set offer has expired. It was valid from 9/11/09-11/11/09 so you can see that this is a very old offer you saw advertised in your local store ad.

To find out about other offers please visit www.pgeverydaysolutions.com/cr. I think you'll really like the website!

Thanks again for getting in touch with us.

If it was such an old offer, why did it have this years dates in it? Any Market Place folks seen this down there?

There is another set offered this year with different stuff. Check Iheartpublix dot com site. There is a copy of the form as well as description of this years set.

Possibly Market Place (Pacific Northwest? Don't know where all they are), as that was the store on the form I had.....which there isn't any in Alaska.
