  • Can I have one of your pairs? Or codes. Happy to reimburse for drink as I dont drink soft drink

    • +5

      Use bar code 3580

      Just won a pair , got a black size 10

      • which product is that bar code specifically for?

  • +1

    I have entered 5 labels (all with the SAME last 4 digits of the barcode) and have won nothing.

    NFI how this works

  • I've entered with 2 labels and have won nothing either kugz.

  • Two out of two. No good. Not bothered. You should buy a lotto ticket.

  • even if your lucky enough to get a prize 5/5 times, competitions still don't belong here

  • As humdingaling has commented, this is a competition, not a deal.

  • Use bar code 3580

    Just won a pair , got a black size 10

  • I apologize if codes not winning. Maybe I just got very lucky, thought it was an easy win deal.

  • just so people know, barcodes arent unique, each product has the same code

  • thanks op

  • +1

    SORRY!

    Unfortunately you weren’t an instant winner this time. Purchase any specially marked Schweppes product to try again.

    The good news is that you’ve been entered in the draw to win a Jeep Wrangler Overland. Good luck!

    • +2

      As the last million times for me

    • well, The good news is that you’ve been entered in the draw to win a Jeep Wrangler Overland. Good luck!

      • +1

        the bad news is you might win it.

  • Thanks op! Size 11 blue.

  • -5

    Anyone willing to gift me a pair?
    Please :)
    I'll love you for ever, and change my avatar to anything you like :)
    My last million entries are null prizes:(

  • Just won another pair

    Got a blue, size 10

    • +2

      easternculture, are you being a tease, I just tried it 10 times with the same code and get a Sorry every time.

      • Exactly

        • You have selected the following Rip Curl Pro thongs:

          Blue Thongs
          Size Men's - 10

  • Just won 4/5 times…so 4 free pairs cant complain, Thats if we get them!!!

  • +3

    I must have tried about 10 times. No luck :(

  • i used the code and won but no proof purchase so pointless applying for my win??

    • If you don't want the thongs, I have Purchase Proof so you could shoot the unique code over my way?

      • +1

        you cant do this.. unless btwatt99 is willing to share his/her phone number with you. The one that was used in the entry.

  • +2

    We’re sorry, it looks like you’ve reached the maximum number of entries allowed for today. Don’t forget to try again tomorrow.

    • Change mobile number, try again :P

  • I won 1/2..

    You don't need any proof of purchase until your 32nd entry.

    My first entry came from a bottle of soft drink i got for free for doing a silly KFC survey. And they certainly didn't give me a receipt

    Free soft drink, free shoes lol so cool..

    I suggest you read the 200 page topic on the kit kat android comp on whirlpool for more ideas how to maximize your chances of winning this.

    • What do they mean after the 32nd entry? I don't get it!?

      • +1

        means u can enter the comp 31 times without the need to provide your reciept. After that they might request u email them a scanned reciept for each entry afterwards (supposedly if you win i guess)

  • Just won on my fifth or so try :)

  • +3

    FYI for anyone trying.

    complete the form and submit it with teh wrong security code. then fix it up. this way when you submit and don't win, you can click Back on browser and your details are kept in the text boxes. Just change your phone number every 5 times until you get success. NB you need to know the mobile number you used when you win

    • do you actually need to put in a real mobile no?

      I only have two, so 10 tries max?

      • don't need it

      • It can be any, just remember what you put in. I put 04aabbbccc format, and each 5 times changed it, so 04bbcccddd or something. Just remember what you are using as when you win, you'll get a code and to redeem the code you have to put in the same number.

        It doesn't actually send anything to the number.

    • thanks for putting this up leeroys_dad, helped me win finally!

  • F I N A L L Y! GOT ONE :)

    • Well done!!!

      Try again and you might win another to make a pair!

  • +1

    I finally scored one too. Thanks, OP!

    Now just have to wait to see if I actually get it.

  • Just scored my third one yay

  • I had to submit about 40 times to get 1, I think a few of you are just plain greedy lol

  • Got one on my third try, woo.

  • What methods did you guys use to win?

    I must've entered more than 200 times to no avail. I just want 1 pair to wear!

    • Hey Scrooge, just keep entering, I was very frustrated but in the end I came out with 3 pair today :)

      • Are you reloading the form each time and filling it out manually?

        • +1

          https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/127157#comment-1752031
          Doing that, and after 5 or so entries change the phone number (e.g. I changed the last digit)

        • Just go back on your browser and try again. I had no luck yesterday but won today after 14 tries. Could be at a certain interval, I won at 11:37 if that helps.

  • If you set your browser user-agent to a mobile device, then you don't get the security code to slow you down. Using a form filler is also one of the better methods.

  • How Do you guys think they count 31 times? Email, Phone, Address?

  • I finally got one after at least 50 times. Now, what if they ask for proof of purchase?

    • Yeah, ummm…

  • eww

  • +2

    F***. Was in a rhythm of entering and going back and finally won but clicked back before I realised

    • +1

      Check your email, they send the code to you.

      • Haha yeah I ended up doing that so its all good

  • +1

    Well that was…um..interesting. Tried no less than 145 times and nothing.

    • Keep trying I did it like 100 times till I won. Then I tried again and got it like 3rd try

  • -5

    And i won another pair in white

    I have now Black, Blue, Green and White

    • +3

      Sure I don't have to say this, but it would be good if everyone only claims once… :)

      • -1

        there's plenty to go around …. 25,812 Rip Curl Pro thongs

  • Thanks OP, won one.

  • Yay I won!

  • Won 2/3 yesterday.

    Just tried 5 times today, didn't win anything and it has come up with a 'maximum tries for today' thingy

  • Tired 50 times no win. I give up!

    • Okay finally. After 160 goes, got someting.

  • +8

    You beauty! First try and I won the Jeep Wrangler. Thanks OP.

    • -1

      You're doing it wrong…

  • +1

    did around 100 and nothing ….

  • +2

    once you get one, look at the clock on your computer. it will be exactly (more or less) 5 minutes until the next winner

  • "Oops, the details you’ve entered are incorrect. Please double check your details and unique code."

    I'm using the right mob number!

  • +2

    After trying what seemed like 100+ entries yesterday, i finally won one today at around 6:40am on the first go. So i suggest that people try in the early hours since you will greatly increase your chances of winning because there won't be many people entering.

    • Midnight FTW!

  • Won at around 25 tries! Thanks OP

  • got one thanks

  • Got one on my third try, weew!

  • Got it at 1:20am ahaha, let's hope they deliver

  • Its definitely easier to win late at night or early AM. Just won in under 10 tries.

  • The whole proof of purchase for over 30 attempts, is that measured by name or email or is it by mobile number? Changing the mobile number resets the daily limit, so do u reckon it resets the number of attempts too?

    • no idea, but just change name/email/phone to be safe

  • Thanks OP 6 tries and im a winner

  • +1

    They should call it 'Refresh your browser'

    • HAHA!

  • 3rd time lucky for me :)
    Cheers

  • what 4 digit code should i put in?

    • 0862 (Pepsi Max 600ML)

  • I tried changing email address & phone number but after a few goes it says "We’re sorry, it looks like you’ve reached the maximum number of entries allowed for today. Don’t forget to try again tomorrow."

    ???

    • Sounds like they've caught on…
      I think they're capturing your computer ID thingy what ever it's called

      • I dont know if they have yet, I tested it again by just changing the last digit of my mobile and it still worked

    • +2

      maybe someone else has used your fake mobile number… ha ha ha

    • Same problem , tried chaning everything, using private browser etc..

  • +1

    I managed to win 2 pairs using the whole families emails & mobiles plus I had to log on using a few work VPN log ins….. I really think they are keeping track of computer address and phone numbers used to limit entries….

    • Hi Olga, how did you manage to use a VPN log in? Where did you go? I want to try using it aswell, whatever it is! Haha thanks

      • Hi, VPN I use is my work company, so I have 3 vpn sites I can logon through. But I think if you enter through your phone (3g internet) as well as your home internet, should give you a few extra trys. Because when I used my normal logon, even though I used a new email & phone number it still said I had reached my limit for the day…..
        Goodluck….

    Now that the competition is now fixed, just a handy hint. The thongs were going off at 2min 23sec and 7min 23sec, but I now believe the times are 2min 43sec and 7min 43sec. It goes off every 5mins like clockwork.
