Thanks! I just received the rebate. I did have a few problems submitting the answer, so I clicked it a few times to make sure.

I’m glad others got the prize but I STILL have not gotten anything that I was promised and I participated. What a joke!

I really agree with someone above who said…
“when entering coupon code for RedBox, like comment could be - “code valid only for Monday”, “code valid only one per Credit Card”, etc, etc. Would be so helpful!!”
Some codes are only valid at specific places, or have other factors, it would be nice to know what they are.

Hi. love your site with codes. One small suggestion - to add also NOTES (comments) when entering coupon code for RedBox, like comment could be - “code valid only for Monday”, “code valid only one per Credit Card”, etc, etc. Would be so helpful!!

No censorship here. :)
I think you are right that the way it was written could be interpreted a couple of ways, but my intention was $2 per entry.
I will be glad to share a few statistics with you, though…
Total number of unique entries with the correct answer: 174
Total number of netflix subscribers: 112
Total of rebates and prizes paid: $1500
I think if you do the math you will see that the participants in this round came out ahead. And, thats what we are all about here - giving you more than you expect!
Have a great day!

Well, legally, Michael wrote it up wrong.
“BONUS ROUND Grand Prize: $1000+* Visa Gift Card
*The GRAND PRIZE amount is based on how many people participate in this round. For every participant, $2 will be added to the Grand Prize total.”
Looks like he really meant:
BONUS ROUND Grand Prize: $1000*+** Visa Gift Card
*The GRAND PRIZE amount is based on how many people participate in this round. [implied: $1000 expected by not guaranteed]
**For every participant, $2 will be added to the Grand Prize total. [hard to verify this part because the actual prize is a rounded number, and I doubt Michael's going to be releasing an itemized list]
That could potentially be a costly little annotation error.
I wonder if this is going to get the Chinese censorship treatment. :)
