Well, it's not like we have anything else in our wardrobes!

Now this has me thinking that I also need a Lil' Sweet t-shirt...!


That. Would. Be. AMAZING.


Of course, it has to be pop Lil' Sweet - nothing else will do!

What a weird statement. lol

It does seem weird out of context lol there was someone before that said about fanatics running into each other since we'll all be out getting Dr Pepper. I'm not a weirdo, I swear! :roflmao:


lol Isn't that what a weirdo would say, though?

Seriously, though, not weird....dedicated! Not everyone will be out at midnight to get these bottles to make sure they're good to go! The things we do for our pops!

This is exactly right. They aren't going to change UPC's just for a giveaway promotion. They are called "universal product codes" for a reason. lol

Now if they were to insert some kind of special code in the cap that you need to text in, that would make more sense. But if all they require is proof of purchase and the upc code, which has been stated, no need to hunt for a special bottle.


...And now we're all going to be paranoid about special codes in the caps!

It's either gotta be that or a photo of the receipt, right? :-k

I cannot wait to get Lil' Sweet though, those commercials with him have me CRYING laughing. I hope they keep making more of them.

I'm glad to know you've had experience with this type of thing before! Thanks for the info! Definitely makes me feel better since I haven't seen any bottles with the labels around yet

Everyone needs gas for their cars! Or, should we go to a grocery store? Target? Surely these bottles will be all over, right?

I'm happy to be reading this and kinda having a "duh" moment. I've had no luck finding the special funko labeled bottles, but after reading this hopefully I'll be set just picking up 3 20oz bottles.


Good luck! :freddy2:

If you get a response, please let us know. I've yet to find the Funko labeled bottles, so ended up picking up the "regular" ones. I'm hoping this will be adequate enough to qualify :-k

Found the Funko labeled bottles at my local walmart last night. I live in a small town, and our walmart is usually way behind on everything. So the fact they had them makes me think most or all walmarts have them now.

Agreed. I think there’ll be a lot more to go around than these pre-sellers are accounting for. I have nothing to back that up mind you. It’s just speculation. But with a promotion this size I’m imagining there’ll be quite a few.

Seems helpful to me! Good to know for sure the purchases can't be made before February 1, though, right? That makes me assume February 1 in your own time zone because I can't imagine someone checking every receipt to see what time zone it was in. And it makes it sound like there isn't any sneaky code hidden under the caps haha :D
