This is weird and kind of upsetting. I hope my wins are true wins and not cause of their error.

Do you think they would allow more winners since there is 3 characters this time around?

There rules and numbers clearly match up with the statement that there is 1 winner per 15 minute period. My only guess is a glitch or overflow. I would just try to win as many as you can to max out the 4 per address and cross your fingers. But don't risk winning 2 at the same address on the same day just in case. There's 2 months left, plenty of time at this rate.

It's also interesting that allskate03 just won in the next period... someone should try the same period again and see what happens!

I just won one at 1:57am EST go team.

omg i just won at 1:56am EST... I tried out of curiosity.... this is getting really concerning and bizarre.

I've called a total of 6 times two each day one with my phone and one with the gfs phone won twice on mine and once on hers. I think it's a limit of 4 per household/address. This also reminds me of the fright rider promo everyone was winning at the start then towards the end it was real hard for ppl to win

Since I won 3 hope they are all diff but if guess we can set up some kinda of trading to get the other colors

Yea I bet some people are going to be unhappy with the results here.

Yea but they have access to the same number were using so it's not like we're doing anything wrong

do you think they really count a "day" as starting from midnight central? cause I won at 2:35pm CT on 7/8. Then didn't expect to win again at 12:56am CT 7/9 and used the same name and address out of panic LOL!

i wish i had used my luck at the casino instead... ive won twice in a row on the phone line. am i like crazy lucky? like, two wins in 30 minutes. my friends been calling for like an hour or two and hasnt won a single time. (dont worry guys im not like being cheaty, once was home phone, once was cell phone)
i have yet to win with the app. also, if youre on android, after you enter, go to application management, clear cache, try again with different email.
GOOD HUNTING and GOOD LUCK friends.

No offense, but those that win multiples are subject to disqualification. I hope you have different addresses to ship your winnings to. Expect Frito Lay to lay down the hammer on this stuff.

You're allowed 4 wins per household. Also, the rules state 1 per day per person/email address/phone number, not address. So two people in the same house could win in the same day.

I won again at 5:48 AM EDT

Just called won again.

Just won via the phone-in number at around 8:45am EST.

I won at 8:00, 8:15, and 8:30. I have 5 people in my house, so I could enter more, but I don't feel like it, and everyone's probable waking up around this time, making my chances of winning lower. I'd say the key to winning is trying really early. EDIT: I recently tried again with the app, and didn't win, supporting my theory.

Darn. With only 4 I might not get one of every color.

I just won again at 11:12 est.

it's good there's more people coming out and winning on these. that's awesome. hopefully there'll be less people in panic mode by september 5th when it ends lol

basically this. there's more than 4 ppl at my house and there's 6 different phone numbers due to everyone having a cell and a land line. perfectly legit. i can only win a total of 4 like everyone else for the address but as long as we only play each number and every person plays once a day it's fine.

just won on the phone at 12:13 ET.....YAAAAAHHHOOOOO

Nope. There will be those complaining that it's rigged, how unfair it is, swearing off Frito Lay, accusing scalpers of getting them all, etc. etc.

Circle of Life...

I finally one when I called in at 12:30 CST! A bit off topic, but I'm assuming the figures are shipped out in September, right (sorry I don't play these contests much)?

the turn around is 8-10 weeks so this time around it's probably going to be close to that yeah. earliest by late august maybe they'll start being seen. this is a perfect way to wrap up swap force. i don't think i'm going to be as active with the trap team stuff. only for the contests

unfortunately there's going to be many like that but this time around, people can play right at the start WITHOUT hunting for the bags so there's a big difference than what's been done with the other two recently. There's going to be scalpers getting them, it's just how these contests are done. It means most people that if they want them are just going to have to do the contest earlier enough right now that maybe they'll also get lucky to win. Most will only get the ones they want (approx the 4 or less) then they'll be done with it.

No one had to hunt for QDRS bags at all - after the very first day, they could enter the code that was posted on the first post of the thread - and the QDRS promo is the one everyone seems to complain about - it's funny - the QDRS promo was probably the easiest to enter, and yet, the hardest to win.

Oh well, I've already won 12 Hot Dogs and we're only three days in. At this rate, I'll have enough to give away as trick or treat prizes.

wow and i thought we were taking it easy to only win 3 within a span of 2 days you already got 12? yeah they'd probably make great trick or treat prizes

edit: and just won my 4th just 5 mins ago after typing this post up fun times

I scan the code it shows hotdog trying to basically get at you thru the phone and then it cant find the site..

Your memory in your phone or you processor is to low to run blippar try to free up some memory and see if that helps you out.

i surf the web fine on my cell thou...ill try it when im outside i guess

My wife and I just won our 4th and 5th. I guess we have three more to go!

Since so many people are getting these, I'm sure people are gonna have doubles and possible not get the color they want, so I was wondering if there would be a way to make a trading thread like the ones for sidekicks.
EDIT: Just won my 4th at 2:24 est.

By the way, I was kidding about having won 12 ("kidding about that" )

I tend to think Dark would allow it, but we won't know until he's asked. I gave it thought, but figured if it hasn't been officially asked by the time these start shipping, I'd ask him...

Is no one here concerned about multiple wins to the same address on the same day? I want to win my 4 and be done with it today, but I was worried about them being canceled to the same address...

How many have you won Bob?

I am calling in. I wasn't sure which method to use, but after the luck that I've been having, I am positive it is the best way. I just hope all of this is not an error on Frito-Lay's end.

i think it's already been stated, as long as it's a different phone number, email address, person and fits under the 4 per household limit they really have no reason to disqualify

Called in and lost. Oh well

What do you all think about calling in on the same phone but using different numbers? That's what we have been doing. Do you think that will disqualify us?

Quote: lcopley98

no idea since you gave them the phone number info for input that is what gets saved for your info along with the date of birth. it's no different than the entry of information of input from before on winning. i would think thats what it will go with. there's usually a secondary number to contact frito lay which you should to make sure everything is correct for your winning ones. it takes a few days for them to put things into the system so you'll know then. my advice is to just only worry on your 4 and not play any more if you reached the limit. then around next week give them a call. there's another number somewhere in the rules for everything.

Do you have the phone number? could you post that? I want to call and confirm the rules and check my wins too.

I've been a little lazy about getting online today, but win #3 this morning at 1:30 am EST.

from what i posted is my experience from the quickdraw contest and frito lay. it takes them a few days to get all that info into the system. I would think it's going to be that way with all the call ins mixed with the app wins. GIVE THEM TIME. if you called them today or tomorrow they aren't going to be in their computers yet. approximate time it takes is between 3-5 business days from wins. so if you won today, it's best to check in by monday earliest.

I was actually looking to call in to confirm the rules, which are a little vague. Not bug them about my wins from today. I'm not stupid. But I'd like to find out if I could keep playing at the same address.

the rules aren't too vague because once you win a maximum of 4 per address/household that's it. all done lol if you plan on playing for others with their phone numbers, age, name, address for them to win, for example a friend, that's not out of things. it's only your address will be done after the 4. basically for these contests everyone's address has a chance to win 4 max.
