Thank you. I was just coming here to post my own package info.

Limited Edition Cobalt
BEST BY 08AUG12
014 516B
(*no* icefly)

Limited Edition Cobalt
BEST BY 05SEP12
014 736B
(*yes* icefly and code)

Both were purchased within a radius of Sunnyvale, California. I think i'm going to stop buying the multipacks and just wait for the individual packs to show up on shelves. Seriously, we're in no rush at the moment, and the icefly logo is very visible on the individual pack.

Re: Does anyone need me to buy them some gum?

I've been helping our European brethren that just wanted the codes by buying Icefly packs of gum on their behalf and sending photos of the codes to them. I'm about to make another trip to the store(s) and wanted to check who else might need some and could pay via Paypal before I head out. Drop me a PM if you're interested. I'll try and fulfill as many requests as I can find gum for in the stores I drive by on the way home (quite a few Smile). I have found it for ~$1.00 in 3-packs and individual packs for $1.27-$1.73 as an idea of pricing.


Sent you a PM Wink

So in response to the bad codes I got...

This was after I emailed support and sent them pictures of the bad codes too. Iono how the other person here who said to complain to get codes got it to work.

Dear Mr. Sinz

Thank you for contacting the Wrigley Company to request information. We are always happy to hear from our consumers and will be happy to answer your question.

In response to your request, we apologize for the experience you have had with our promotion. Unfortunately, we are unable to send you coding information to enter into the promotion.

We thank you once again for taking time to contact us.

Sincerely,

Melissa Kepple
Consumer Care Representative

So it looks like if you guys ever get a bad patch, no codes in icefly packs, or anything else... Too bad =(

Just found this channel too - http://www.youtube.com/user/EverTriedNew5Gum#p/u

all the commercials have the flickering testsubjectsneeded.com in them. This has been going on for quite a while. Was news to me.

Target in Albany has 3 packs of Cobalt, exp 05Sep12. Was surprised when one of my codes was already "used"; are people phishing codes successfully?

Packs in Canada

Have tried several places, always looking for single packs; no luck yet. Anyone in Canada tried Costco?

Not to burst your bubble but it has to be August. My two boxes of Cobalt from Costco were all Aug 24 =( Maybe you can get a refund?

I had the strangest experience today. I went out to buy a pack of mint React2 with the 08AUG12 date, and found packs of fruit React2 dated 26Feb12 for a discounted price, so I got both. Much to my surprise, the mint didn't have iceflies, but the fruit did! Suffice to say, I went back for another pack.

I've found several flavors with the Feb 12 date that did have iceflies, but as I mentioned it seemed to be only one or two packs per case. I think they were "seeding" the ARG in advance.

Otherwise, you have to get a date after Aug 28 2012 to get the codes, but then there are way more in a case.

I just hit Target and bought 40 single packs. They had Vortex, Cobalt and Rain. No multi-packs. I was just thinking about the "seeding" tonight. The packs I collected were spread around the 16 checkout lanes.

There would be a pair of 19Feb12 Vortex on top of a box of Dec12. Same with the Cobalt and Rain, a couple of brand new Icefly packs on top of old stock. Either they are filling up the boxes of old stock with new just to "look full" or they are trying to make sure that a few Icefly packs per register get onto the street in a hurry.

I was bouncing from front to back registers, working my way through everyone, finding a few packs at each one. With a swollen face and hobbling on one crutch like Tiny Tim. For some reason I got the attention of a manager, who got me a basket and looked suspicious/annoyed.

I told him I was on a scavenger hunt. He didn't really seem to give a shit about my hunt. Maybe he had just finished seeding the registers. Very Happy

It's Costco. You can get a refund for food you bought a year ago.
