Yay for free Dr. Pepper!
Awhile back, Dr. Pepper announced that if the Guns n' Roses album Chinese Democracy came out in 2008, they would give one free bottle of Dr. Pepper to everyone in the United States.
Well the album got released and Dr. Pepper kept their word.
Now either it was the bad economy or people just like getting stuff for free, but when the day finally came to sign up for it, the website couldn't handle the load of people trying to sign up for their free bottle.
Dr. Pepper ended up having to run the promotion for an extra day, add some new servers, and at one point, the whole website was nothing but text on white with the links and sign up form being the only thing you could access.
I did manage to get through after a few tries, and I had actually forgotten about it.
In today's mail, I got my coupon for my free 16oz bottle of Dr. Pepper.
Yay!
So later on when Sebastian and I head out to the store, I'm going to let Sebastian have it, he likes it way more than I do.
But anyway, if you managed to get through and sign up, your free coupon should be on the way too.

Kat, you may want to black out your address on that letter :)

Heh, I thought you had to actually purchase the CD in order to get the coupon, or I might have tried this myself. But there is no way I am buying that CD till I hear more than the first song, which, IMO, doesn't even sound like GNR to me.
