Free Dr Pepper for everyone in U.S.A

[RyanZ]

Many wondered if Dr Pepper would hold up to their end of the bargain when they announced earlier this year that they would give everyone in America a free Dr Pepper (excluding former Guns N’ Roses guitarists Slash and Buckethead) if Axl Rose managed to release the long-delayed Chinese Democracy sometime in 2008.

Well, with the album currently scheduled for a November 23 release, Dr Pepper issued the following statement:

"Don't cry, Guns N' Roses fans. The agonizing wait for the 17 years-in-the-making masterpiece Chinese Democracy will finally be over (fingers crossed) on Nov. 23, 2008. Sure, there have been more rumored release dates than the 23 flavors of Dr Pepper, but if Chinese Democracy hits stores as announced today, it's going to be so easy, easy for every American to get a free Dr Pepper as promised.

"We never thought this day would come," said Tony Jacobs, vice president of marketing for Dr Pepper. "But now that it's here all we can say is: The Dr Pepper's on us." Dr Pepper is ready to give out free soda coupons to every American when the album releases on Nov. 23, 2008. If you're out to get a free Dr Pepper just follow these simple steps:

How To Get Your Free Dr Pepper:

1. On the Nov. 23, 2008 release date, go to Drpepper.com
2. Register your information to receive a coupon for one free 20-oz. Dr Pepper.
3. When your coupon arrives, redeem it wherever Dr Pepper is sold.
4. Drink your Dr Pepper slowly to experience all 23 flavors. Dr's orders.

Coupons will be available for 24 hours, starting at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on Nov. 23, 2008. Allow 4-6 weeks for coupon to arrive. Coupons will expire on Feb. 28, 2009. Limit one coupon per person. Full terms and conditions available at www.drpepper.com."

There you have it folks. Soon we’ll all be enjoying 23 flavors of sweet, delicious, free Dr Pepper. It’s a glorious day.
