It wasn't the same as I previously posted, no. It is however a similar alpha numerical 11 digit code. The only 11 digit code that could be found on the bags.

Some have the white sticker, some don't. If you got your sticker you are all set. The sack I got with the white sticker didn't have the black code near the expiration date.

Random thought - what if you have to mail in the code from the bag if you are a winner?

Good thought but at the same time, it wouldn't be hard to forge a sticker.

What if a free code won from a post card? There wouldn't be anything to mail back to Frito-Lay for those winners.

If they mail you a code back - or, perhaps, they'll have that code tied to your mailing address in their data base.

I dunno. Just trying to figure out how this crazy plan will work. smilie

Site is live

The rules do specify one play per game code, which seems like an issue if the same code seems to be on batches of bags

If they do it like they did the fright rider one then the codes received via post card mailings won't be tied to the address used to receive the codes. I had extra codes after i won my 4 and gave them to a friend of mine to use for his son, but before i did I called the help number to verify that the codes would still be valid if used for his shipping address and they told me there would be no issue because the codes emailed out are not tied to the address that was on the postcard.

Did I read the rules incorrectly, or did it state that you can only attempt once per 24 hours...Ouch...IIRC when the site was working earlier it was gathering contact info first, before letting you try a code...And if that's the case then the code's probably don't matter so much on how much they are used, and just allow Frito-Lay a means of tracking down which regions are getting winners, more-or-less.

I also noted that the mail-ins are still stating one per 3x5 received, but they are e-mailing the codes, which contradicts the idea of codes being used repetitively, since people requesting multiple codes would get multiple codes...Unless they just send one code and tell the person to get bent for any further codes.

I don't think that's likely. These codes aren't unique like the Fright Rider codes.

I know, but after talking to the service rep the other day, apparently they are supposed to be. They were surprised the codes were on the outside and they were surprised to hear they weren't unique. I told them I have 2 bags with the same code and there were 5 other bags in the same store still with the same code. Take it for what it's worth...

I would say everyone's best bet is to mail in 3x5 cards...only way to guarantee unique codes.

It's less likely that the bags were intended to be unique and they made that many mistakes and more likely that the person you spoke with just didn't know the details of how the codes had been distributed.

Follow the on-screen instructions to input your date of birth, email address, zip code and Game Code and then properly submit an
online play to determine if you have won a prize.

Limit one (1) Play per Game Code. All participants must have a valid email address.

Limit one (1) Play per day person/email address. A “day” is defined as a twenty-four hour time period beginning at 12:00:00 AM CT and ending at the following 11:59:59 PM CT.

The website is finally up! As expected, the message says Coming Soon as of now.

http://www.fritolayholiday.com/coming-soon

For those of you mailing in for codes, DOB is required as per the official rules. I think it was omitted the first time the address was posted in this thread. Interesting because it says one play per game code...say if you lose playing a code one day and try entering using the same game code the next day (even if the system even accepts it), you may be disqualified from a prize even if you get a winner prompt...just mentioning it as that's how the official rules may be interpreted. This whole code on the outside of the bag thing is a fiasco. I'm mailing in for codes to be on the safe side.

Also, there is a limit of 4 prizes per person/mailing address and one play per day...at least that limits those trying to hoard or scalp these figures smilie

DOB was not asked to be included on the mail in requests according to the rules on the back of the bags. I hope this doesn't screw things up for early mailers.

5664 is such a weird number for the total number of figures being given away. It's like the accountant went to the PR team and said "Yeahhhh I'm gonna need you to keep this whole 'giveaway thing' under $73,576. Yeah that'd be great.".

Actually, it's 5664 b/c they are giving away 1 every 15 minutes for 59 days (11/3-12/31).

FYI: I just got emails from Frito-Lay including the codes that I requested for this promotion. I did not include my DOB on the post cards but most importantly this nullifies the information given by a Frito-Lay rep that the PO Box isn't in service yet. All codes that I received are different as well.

I got emails from Frito Lay with codes for the Rattle Shake promotion this afternoon also, so I guess that the PO box is in service before 11/3/13.

Kind of sort of related to this topic, but I don't think it warranted another. (although hey maybe someone else saw them)

Walmart has ANOTHER Frito-Lay promo bag, seems to be entirely different from the Rattle Shake one..maybe Walmart is getting both?

[User Posted Image][User Posted Image]

The pack features some Swap Force guys on it, and the back claims that there's a few deals inside; $10 off SF Starter Pack AND you get a $5 Walmart Giftcard when you purchase the pack at Walmart with the coupon (so you get essentially $15 off.

Pretty cool I guess, but this just further complicates people trying to find the Rattle Shake bags....like me lol
