I have found some these on Diet 2 liter bottles and Regular Dew 12pks, but no 20oz yet.
I'll keep a look out for different packaging with these, I'm going to Wal-mart today so I'll check there too. The 20oz bottle I found was at a near by convenience store. I'm in Tennessee north of Knoxville near the KY state line.

The rules are up! Only prizes on weekends . . . not "exactly" prize-a-minute" strictly speaking.

Added to the Wiki.

It looks as if entries DO NOT carry over week to week:

"Non-winning entries received for any given Entry Period will not carry forward to or be included in subsequent Entry Periods."

Once codes are gone, they're gone, as used-car pitchmen say! laugh out loud

OK, see this part of the rules: Your odds might be better if you wait a bit.

Entry Period Entry Dates Weekend Drawing Dates (drawings every minute)
1 1/30/12 - 3/1/12 3/2/12 - 3/4/12
2 3/2/12 - 3/8/12 3/9/12 - 3/11/12
. . .etc... etc... etc....
If you enter your codes now, they won't draw anything until March! The whole month of February's entries go into one weekend drawings!

From Jan. 30 through March 1, all codes entered are drawn on the weekend of March 2 through March 4.

The next week, March 2 through 8, those entries are eligible to be selected when they draw on March 9 through 11.

Etc., etc., til the end of the promo.

If caps start to disappear by the end of Feb., your odds might be better if you hold off. It's a crapshoot anyway.

Good luck!

wow, good catch. i assumed the first drawing was THIS coming weekend! Smilie that being said, caps wont disappear until at least the end of april. its how pepsi operates. so your odds still might be better in the first month seeing as most areas wont have the caps yet....however, like u said, its all a crapshoot!
