Cool guys help I think my heart is stopping

Guys I never win anything ever, but I went to a Honda Goldwing ralley this weekend with my father in law and he looked at me crazy when he seen me garbage diving for little orange pepsi caps... I got around 50 caps that night, so I looked 3 days in advance on Wednesday the 28th at 7:50am only 2 people put caps in that day.... I put 84.. Come to work this moring at 7:30 am waited waited 8:00 AM hit refresh on every10minutes.com Taylors, SC... I Sh!+ myself I won!

Im in shock right now and can not believe it. After going through 174 caps I finally win.

Putting 1 point at a time will not work guys heres what you need to try.


Look at the last day on the list and pick a time with the lowest time. Put all your caps into that time and no other time. By the time that time comes you will have a good number of caps into that time. And pray..

Its still about luck. I know someone who played 180 in one slot and still didn't win. The # of caps doesn't guarantee you'll win. And there is no real "strategy" to it. Unless someone just cheats with 5 + accounts and dumps like 2,000 caps into one slot. Which I'd like to konw where they are getting all those caps lol

congrats on winning though

LOL. I have mine preordered, but I still would like to win one. I'm not sure if I'd put the other 360 in another room or put it up on ebay and get some money back.

Okay, here is what you do,

1-Get your xbox
2-Send it to me for repairs! You don't need to check to see if it's broke, I'll do it for you! That's just the kind of guy I am.
3-Expect your Xbox back when the HD-DVD Xboxs come out.

It's that simple!

Back to reality
Congrats on winning, wish I could...Anyway, don't have a heart attack!

So the reality is your wife would not let you get one unless it was free, right? Well, at any rate, good for you- you're a winner.

And here's to you, real american hero: Instead of impressing your father in-law with motorcycle-tastic knowledge, you spend your time diggin' out 180 bottle caps from the trash to win an xbox 360 that you could afford if the wife said so. Your grit, determination and nonchalant stance of making a lasting impression on your life-long in law are defied by your willingness to dig through garbage by the slight chance of winning. So here's to you for keeping it real, and for letting us regain a little dignity. Live long and game hard- you deserve it.
