I'm a Pepper, You're a Schmuck

Posted Nov 23rd 2008 10:00AM by TMZ Staff

In these hard economic times, we will all benefit from a doctor's misdiagnosis of Guns N' Roses.

The honchos at Dr. Pepper made a promise back in March that everyone would get free soda if G'N'R released another album.

It seemed like a good bet, after Axl Rose made false promises for 17 years.

But the day has come, so everyone can now log onto DrPepper.com and get a free 20 oz soda. But they're not making it easy -- they'll send you a coupon that will get to you in 4 to 6 weeks. Bastards.

33. I got the coupon shortly after midnight, when no one was on the site.

And the new album is excellent!

34. TOtally a scam...gave me multiple error responses including that every email address in my home was already in use....nice try....I will certainly boycott Dr. Pepper for this obvious attempt at publicity with no intention at paying out as promised!

35. O.k this is some b.s. I want my free coupon right? But along with ALMOST every American I can't get it. If they promise something and dont delivere cant you sue?

36. So I go to the website early Sunday morning because I knew that there would be traffic only to find out that it's only open to US citizens. Which sucks because I'm Canadian. What also sucks is that CTV, Much Music, MTV Canada and radio stations such as CNFY informed Canadians about the free promotion and how to get it. Dr. Pepper should of informed the media properly on the rules and conditions.
