For the packet of Chupa Chups I got (didn't win) it was inside along the seam, you should be able to see some red letters slightly under the fold.

So far have only found Chupa Chups packs (Sainsburys and Iceland) never Fruitella, anyone found promotional Fruitella packs yet?

I've not even seen any Fruitella packs, let alone promotional ones!
Is it just me or are the codes crazy hard to read? The letters go right over the seam and are broken up. Seems they are hard to find, so I guess that's why people are winning when they do find them Praying I get 2 different figures not 2 the same. |

I picked up a couple more Chupa bags in our local Asda. Couldn't see any of the Fruitella ones...but then at checkout, where they have all the last minute junk on the side, like sweet bags etc, low and behold a fruitella skylander bag (was around £1.25 give or take), only the one on my aisle, rest behind were the non promo packs
Not too amused though, 9 packs so far and no win.....may just have to resort to buying the 3 off ebay, and get the book with trigger snappy.....loathe the company for being so secretive and unhelpful as to when/what stuff will be available in the future. I did notice reading the packets, that these 2 figures are exclusive for a limited time only, as in they could hopefully appear in some other promotion later |

Just received my two winnings through the door this morning and I am very happy that I got one of each. Very badly run promotion but at least I don't have to be involved anymore. Good luck to anyone that is still to have a win.
Now to find Terrabite in the UK. |

How big are the packets? Are they fitting through letter boxes?

Yay! They arrived today too!
AND they fit through the letterbox so were both waiting for me. I am now the proud owner of Gill Runt and Whisper Elf I think they are deliberately sending one of each if they can. |

I thought that at first, but the seam is actually transparent and the code is underneath. Lift the seam and the code isn't distorted any more! Bought 3 bags the other day at my local One Stop shop for a quid each, no winners. Bought one this morning, said it wasn't a winner on the screen, but just checked my junk mail folder and had an email saying I'd won and to expect my figure within 28 days. Weird, not complaining though!

I found some in TRU - they had a cardboard bin with the promotion but it was empty, however I found some packs on their general sweet stand.
I entered 10 times on their web site, and won once. However I then received 10 confirmation emails (all at different times) all saying I had won each time. Anyone seen this before? If I really did win every time I'm kicking myself as I should have used a different address, but seems very unlikely as there are only supposed to be 10 winners per day. Perhaps I should do the lottery this weekend. |

#72 Posted: 14:08:47 08/07/2013
I think this is to make up for it not sending out the confirmation emails at the start, now it always sends one
Seems to be rather poorly run promo to me. |

Yeah, loads of places are doing 3 for 2 on Skylanders now.
And Tesco has finally got/is getting Jade Flashwing. I've asked if they're getting her on the site, or whether she's instore only, but they've not got back to me yet. |

#77 Posted: 19:58:53 19/07/2013
ASDA have 2 for 1 on Giants at the moment!
They had nothing much on the shelf but I asked and they opened up a new just in box I got Ninjini and Thumpback for £13 !!!! I've not seen a Tesco with Skylanders at all, let alone Jade Flashwing.. If anybody sees them can they say where please. |

Just bought three fruitella bags and one once They were only 75p each as well! I think I've tried about 7 times and this is the first time I've won so I'm going to give up hunting these sweets now. This isn't the best promotion they could've done but at least it brought some sidekicks to the UK.

#84 Posted: 10:30:23 21/07/2013
Nice, its a shame that my Tesco never has Skylanders either :/ I remember when Giants first came out they had a total of 1 Granite Crusher and I didn't have any money on me...probably the same story with Jade

My Tesco has about third of an aisle with Skylanders too... I just got in touch, apparently they've got 12 Jade Flashwings. (by yesterday's stock count)
Gonna try and angle a trip down there early next week... |

#88 Posted: 15:34:07 21/07/2013
Just been to a regular Tesco and they had three Jade Flashwings left (nearly missed them because they were on the lowest shelf).

Just checked my emails for the sidekicks promo and still hadn't received it...until I checked my junk folder. Anyone else who's had the problem with the confirmation emails check your spam/junk folder in case it ends up there.

hallelujah....I've finally won one - took 10 packs to do so mind - so plenty of sweeties in the house for a while.
Have half a dozen packs yet to open, but guessing have better chance of winning another if leave it a while before putting the next code in |

^ very odd, the others like Dark Spyro and Granite Crusher were available in quite good numbers and online with Direct too, hopefully there's more Jade on the way
fateorfear - maybe your wife could find out why there's 2 Flashwings showing when you search 'Skylander Flash' at Tesco Direct, shows both UK and US style peg holes and both have a different product code. Maybe one is a place holder for Jade? |
