I hope that we don't have to toss through the entire box of gum to find one or two packs with iceflies. Poor stockboys. Twisted Evil


That would mean that a box of gum is only packaged with a certain number of marked packs. They wouldn't do that, would they??


The icefly packs are a chase? *headdesk* Somebody at Wrigley's marketing must have a vinyl collection Razz (Hope it was a coincidence though.)

Going out to look after dinner. If I find some, should I buy more than one of each flavor...? Willing to give codes to folks if they'll PayPal me for the gum or something.


Pick up as many as you can find!! J/K (mostly).

I think (hope) they're still being distributed, so it might be a few days before we'll find them in large number.

So I guess we need ten of those? How much does 5gum go for anyway?

They aren't available here, but I'm guessing I could probably just transfer the amount needed to someone in the States by using PayPal... Rolling Eyes

Might seem like a total waste of money for someone who can't even enjoy the bubble-gum, but if we'd at least get a memento of some sorts (even a lousy certificate or something) once it's all done with I guess it could be worth it.

Also I'm wondering whether that's the end of it (spending money I mean) or whether we'll have to buy the gums all the time. Shocked

I have a question about the profile page on survivalcode.com
Does it show your actual image you uploaded for the badge, or does it show you an image of the IceFly?

Mine shows IceFly.

IceFly as well. The QR code next to the pentagon is the same for everyone too.

Ah, man. I don't have a Facebook page so I can't see the original post, only the interior photo. The packages ARE marked on the outside somehow, right? I *just* bought three packs of React2 last week in NYC and there were no codes. Razz

I'm not in a major market. I may not even be able to get many of the flavors, and they may not have the special packs... bluh. I'm not surprised they want us to buy gum, but it's frustrating to fight to track them down.

And yes, nicely put Billhouse. Always remember when ARGing Wil Wheaton's motto: don't be a dick.

don'tforgettodrinkyourovaltine

You know, I got the exact same feeling as your struck text when I recognized the constellation keys as the symbols on the packs. Having to buy things, even if gum, rubs me the wrong way a bit.
Not that I'm not game. Though it will be hard to get my folks to give me a ride just to go out and buy gum, possibly having to hunt for it. Sad

Well in about 10 or so I'll be out to hunt for the gum.

I know a local QT had the Limited Edition packs, but I didn't get an icefly anything from those when I got em. We'll see what happens now.

Found ONE just one dame pack at a Chevron station. Went to Raley's, Savemart, Riteaid, Safeway, and they didnt have it. P.S the one I found was the only one in a unopened Pack of 6 looks like they are pretty rare

Dont bother with anything that doesnt have a icefly on it I bought some of those limited editions just to check and I bought anything that said NEW on it. Basically 7 packs of gum only 1 had a code and that was one with a icefly on it.

Can you actually see the ice-fly on it or is it covered up by the outer wrapper?

Feel your pain. On the bright side, you have early Christmas shopping done!

I'm guessing all of them, which means: Cobalt, Rain, Lush, Elixir, Zing, Solstice, React, Flare, Prism and Vortex.
I've only seen about 5 or 6 of those in stores around here. Sad

I GOT EM!!!!

Okay guys. I went looking for HOURS and finally found a gas station that had some. Some are in "special edition" wrappers, and some are not. The new React2 package did not have a "special edition" wrapper. The "Rain" did.

There is a very visible white icefly on the top right of the back of the package.

There is a code on the top and one of those q squares you guys keep talking about Embarassed

BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN ENTERING YOUR CODES!!!!!!!!!!!!

I entered the first, it took me several guesses as to whether it was an 8 or a B, etc. It took me to the keyhole, and all the constellation keys around it. I didn't click on the constellation I unlocked for fear you could use them together later on, or what have you. When I clicked again the screen closed (i hate this computer...) and I had to reload. The code wouldn't work the second time. BOOOOO!!!

Luckily the gas station had more than one. I left others for other scavenger hunters. I wanna run out the door NOW but the hubby is keeping me calm till the morning....*explodes* what if someone gets it? BUT...they will soon be circulating hopefully in higher volume and I'll grab my missing ones then. (I'm not gonna sleep without that package...)

The second code did work, I clicked on the constellation as soon as I unlocked it, and it added it to my inventory. Now it is visible from my profile.

Another interesting thing I noticed is the codes didn't unlock the corresponding flavor's symbol. I got React2 as my second (and now only) code and it unlocked "Rain"'s symbol.

Hope that helped! Cant wait to see other's posts! This is terribly fun!
