re: Skylanders, Anyone?

Yeah, won with the phone, too. The Blippar app isn't working for me with a bad URL, so maybe there is a glut of prizes?

Yes. According to item #4 in the Rules:
Limit four (4) Skylanders® Fire Bone Hot Dog character prizes per person/household.
That said...

I just made win #3! That's three days in a row! One more and I'm officially done!

Of course there's still the 8-10 week wait before they mail prizes. I *really* like entering online a bit better simply because you can accurately type your name/address eliminating errors in hearing/translation.

After I won yesterday I entered again using my dad's phone number but it was *not* a winner. That makes me feel a bit better about the incredible string of luck.

I've been skunked on the phone and app for nearly a week using two phone numbers and an email address.

Maybe one day...

re: Skylanders, Anyone?

Our Jade Fire Kraken order from WM has been delayed a week, supposedly due to the manufacturer changing the release date. It's currently available for shipping from Amazon so what's the problem with WM? I'm considering cancelling the WM order and going with Amazon - not that we "need" it right away but because I feel I'm being jerked around by WM.

My daughter goes by the swap force section everytime we're at Target. I have yet to see any of the wave 3 / 4 figures show up so they are either selling really quickly or my Target isn't re-stocking as often.

^I go by Target a couple of times per month - depending on DVD sales or "exclusive" Skylanders. I think it's been a couple of months since I noticed anything new there myself. It really didn't register until you mentioned it - I've been looking for Nitro Magna-Charge singles with no luck.

If no one has mentioned this yet, it looks like there is going to be a Dark Edition of the Trap Team Starter Set. It will come with an additional character and trap.

Our Jade Fire Kraken came in. We're officially done with Swap Force characters unless the last few reposes or Lightcore we don't have go on sale for a very low ($3 or less each) price. There are 10 of those we do not have.

Still trying to win a 4th LE Firebone Hot Dog from Frito Lay.

Nothing at my local TRU except a ton of Jade Fire Kraken figures.

Current sales: Any 3 figures ($9.99-$10.99) for $25 and any Spyro's Adventure packs ($25.99) for $9.99. Slim pickens though.

I saw several quickdraws at best buy today but the system wouldn't let them sell it to me until August 10.

I didn't ask. TRU worker bees creep me out.
