mountain dew points

I have recently decided that I am going to collect the mountain points in hopes to raise enough for an xbox. I though that everyone here might wanna help me out. If you have any codes that you aren't going to use just pm them to me or instant message them to me at bitterbeerface.

Thanks alot.

My club is doing this as a fundraiser heh. Same reason. We spent all our money on LAN gear and an x arcade so we figured dew points would be a fun way to try to get an xbox. Good Luck. I think my club is up to 26 out of the needed 550.

I have 167 points so far.
Keep in mind that Hardees is using fountain cups with points on them and you can always just grab a sleeve of those and make a run for it.
Just joking, but I did talk to the local Pepsi distributor and he said a case of 250 cups was $36, which makes a green XBox $108 plus the $8.50 shipping charge.

And you want our mountain dew points?

No way, Jose!

400 sounds good to me. Not to sound critical, but you should at LEAST post once a week.

92 cases of Mountain Dew - 552 points
$367
I normally buy soda on sale in 12 packs, so I'm used to finding good deals, normally getting them for $2.50, $3.00 at the absolute most if I'm out of soda.

The soda cost $367, an Xbox is $180.

367 - 180 = $187 for 92 cases of soda

24 cans in a case so 92 x 2 = 184 12-packs

184 12-packs / $187 = $.99 per 12-pack.

If you want an Xbox and like Mountain Dew, this is definately the way to go.

Or if you don't like Mountain Dew, buy the soda, get the points, then re-sell to people at $2 a 12 pack. Which would give you $374. That would give you $7 and a free Xbox.

The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"

what sucks is that the xbox is marked 'limited edition' and by their definition, that is based on an online, while supplies last. will they be shady and only offer 1? i love dew, drank 72 cans of that stuff in a 5 day sittin while i was living at the dorms. that stuff, especially with the big gulp opening, goes down like water.

They offer 1000 of each xbox pack, so 5000 total.

I have an 11-pack of Mountain Dew in my fridge. It's been there for a year or so, since I found the 12-pack left behind in a market's parking lot one evening. I'm NOT into caffine, so I have all these cans just kinda chillin'. In the fridge. Permanently.
