Same here on the soda but figured getting 3 is enough for the occasional Dr. Pepper mixed with spiced rum.

That'll make it more fun!

I drink more DrPepper than water!!!

1st of the month can't come soon enough.
I just hope there isn't a bunch of junk mail after getting it

Still looks like this isn't available in Canada. I imagine there should be plenty online to buy

Dollar tree does carry 20 oz Diet Dr Peppers

Postby **Flampsy** » Thu Jan 23, 2020 1:26 am

Anyone ever find out if we can buy the bottles early and it would still count or do they need to purchased after Jan 31?

Postby **MartinMtz702** » Thu Jan 23, 2020 1:29 am

The sign says 20oz. So it would be bottles not cans. The large cans of drPepper are 16oz aren’t they?

Whoops, sorry I meant bottles. Thanks for catching that! I'm drinking a can of coke at the moment so I guess that got stuck in my head while writing lol

This is a sweet way to get pops. Drink dr pepper all the time anyways so it's a win win

The official rules posted state the bottles must be purchased on 2/1 or after...

Well that's a nightmare inducing thought! Hopefully they're partnering with Funko or someone who actually normally ships these! Otherwise, I think we'll all be borrowing our friends phones to get replacement pops!

At least he came out with something. I thought he fell off the planet

Better Lil Sweet than a From Justin To Kelly pop though!

Justin to Kelly lol

I forgot about that movie

Okay, I feel like an idiot, but I just now learned who's playing Lil' Sweet. OMG! I'm not a huge drinker of Dr. Pepper, but I love the commercials, so I think this pop will be a must have!

Don't It took me a while to figure it out too after seeing a year of those commercials. It wasn't until I googled it because he looked slightly familiar that I found out. I didn't recognize him right away. He is using a falsetto anyway so I don't blame you for not realizing it.

Thanks! In my defense, I didn't really start watching American Idol until season 3, so I only knew him as the guy who lost to Kelly Clarkson! I never saw the movie he was in, either...though from what I hear, I think these commercials are probably better than the movie was!

I’ve tried to forget that movie existed n the fact I watched it. LOL

Just in case they end up wanting a receipt I am going to just buy three bottles that morning. The cats wake me up by 6, so I will just head out after they are fed. I normally drink Diet Mt Dew, not Dr Pepper, so I don't want to end up with six bottles

Then you should have no problem getting a Lil' Sweet or two

Postby **jjb11590** » Thu Jan 23, 2020 11:24 am

So many Funatics take some awesome pics. I'm definitely not at that level yet, but I'm getting more and more excited to see everyone post pics of this little guy. Can't Wait!

I am so excited about htis. I 've been talking about it for weeks and have notes on calendars and everything. It's funny cause I adore Lil Sweet but I never watched American Idol (which is even funnier when you know that I tried out for the show lol

). I am crossing my fingers and toes that we get one. EEKKK!

Has anyone found the actual bottles with the offer label on 'em yet in So Cal?

If so, what stores?

I don't think they're officially out until february first

Postby **geoffdude** » Thu Jan 23, 2020 5:46 pm

Stores wouldn't know one bottle from the other, and only the entry period starts 2/1 really .. so, I'm assuming if they're shipping bottles now they may be found at any time, possibly. Some are showing up, as they're on various web sites, but not sure what stores they're popping up in.

Seems like a pretty cool pop

I love Dr Pepper but the character is kind of annoying. My 2 cents.

Postby **methodsmadness** » Thu Jan 23, 2020 9:29 pm

Interesting how the official rules state "you consent to receive up to 10 automated text messages to the number you provided."

I wonder what happens if you stop the messages before 10. Like are they shipping out all at once after the 10+ messages are sent? Interesting possible disqualification twist!

Once you'll text them im sure you have to reply “yes” and then they send you a few text Throughout the process of sending the pictures and asking your shipping info and maybe some reminders. Just speculating but most of these text sign up have that disclaimer.
