Board 8 > Does anybody work at Walmart? Also does anybody here drink redbull?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Two random ass things but they have a connection!

Redbull is doing a promotion where they're advertising Street Fighter and in each can is a code for a costume.

so uh, yea, If yall ain't usin it, hook me up , plz

but anyways, in some walmarts, they're actually setting up designated sections to put Red bulls up and they actually have a standee and\or a poster of Ryu

I'm tryin to see if anybody can cop one for me? >_>
---

LOL

No wolfoflight apparently
---

I used to work at walmart. That doesn't aid in your current situation, however.

If anybody does work there though, I'm sorry.
---

go to walmart
---

my walmart didn't have them

I live in a back water town and we usually don't get shit like this

also I found a random kwik e mart that had the cans but nothing else

But they had Guile on the can. I'm tryin to get a Ryu can. Maybe even a chunner
---

well I"ll check when I go to Walmart on Monday if you remind me
---

I saw a try can the other day at a Fry's Food Market

In Yuma.

That probably does not help you though.

I work for Walmart, though I'm in Canada. Can't speak for American Walmarts but from what I've seen, Walmart tries to avoid giving away stuff like this as people will complain to head office that "that guy got it but I wanted it" followed by the manager getting in trouble so they generally just throw it out to avoid the problems and the manager getting in trouble.

We had an employee that wanted to take a bunch of scrap metal to sell at a yard, saving us having to rent a bin and throw it out but they wouldn't because it could end up with the manager getting fired for letting that employee get to take the stuff.

Maybe you'll get lucky, but my history says they won't risk letting you have one.

I can ask a friend who is an assistant manager of one near me. No guarantees though

I'm under the impression that it varies from place to place. So i'm not surprised its like that for your place

as you said, I'm tryin to get lucky

up all night to get lucky

I'm not expecting the cooler or anything, but yea, this is what I could find

Hell, that hadouken in a can poster with the roster would be great too.

that cardboard arcade cabinet might be too unrealistic as well. I actually didn't know that existed until just now. But maybe we can take it apart....yea, lets try to get that too. Unlike the cooler, we can work around it. Lets do it!

but I'll pay for shipping and everything on anything else

at the very least, I'm tryin to get a Ryu can.

I'm tryin to refrain buying that guile can for the codes because I don't drink energy drinks. I would hate to waste the money. I'm sure nobody here drinks it either but just wanted to throw it out there as a "May as well" thing if you're not gonna use them.
---

I want the arcade cabinet
---

Who was it that I sent my mvc3 banner to? Was that you pun?
---

I don't think so

In my experience from Kmart, most beverage displays are put up by the suppliers and aren't actually property of the store. Like, anytime we had a Pepsi display, they put them up and took them down themselves and kept everything. If that's the case with Red Bull, you're gonna be out of luck. Hopefully not, though.
---

oh yeah that's true when I worked at Meijer it was the same thing

the Pepsi guys would come in and do their own displays

I also worked at K-Mart and I took a Hanes display of Michael Jordan

guess that's not a beverage though
---

I'll be very surprised if I see any in my region but I'll keep an eye out for these

Well, yeah. Any displays that were shipped to us directly we could keep or do whatever with

But anything that came from a vendor, such as magazines, certain DVDs, and certain beverages, the vendor put up the displays themselves and we couldn't really touch 'em.
---

We will try
---

Any luck? I have errands to run after church tomorrow and can look for a ryu/chun li can if nothing else.
---

I'm a vendor who works in a walmart. But I hate red bull.
---

I saw ryu cans at home depot today
---

They have the display in my local 7/11, ddidnt see who was on the cans though as I generally drink Monster or Rockstar

Not particularly on topic, but the topic title reminds me of a Mitch Hedberg joke about the confusion that comes from filling out doctors' forms.

"Have you ever tried sugar...or PCP?"
---

They have Ryu cans at my local grocery store, I don't drink Red Bull though.

One of my friends does and I don't think he plays Street Fighter. I'll ask him
---

Was at Meijer today and grabbed a couple but they only had Zangief cans. Do the codes match the character on the cans?
---

thats a good question, i have no idea

guess we'll find out~
---

also I suppose I should ask one of you for the Ryu can so multiple people don't go and buy it

@MZero11 can you please buy me a can and I'll reimburse you for it and shipping? You live in America, right?

Full or empty? Lol

Yeah I can grab one for you. I'm in AZ atm so shipping should be relatively cheap
---

I'd hate to be wasteful but probably empty. Shipping a carbonated drink might raise problems. I'll give you my info

any word on your friend?

I'll just give it to my friend and ask for the can back lol

He doesn't have SFV so I'm sure he'll give me the empty cans if he gets one of the SF ones
---

So apparently its one costume per can and there are 16 costumes in total

god damn! I didn't know it was that many, I thought it was just like 5 tops

however they are not specific to the picture on the can and you can choose who you want to redeem

While I'm not expectin that many codes from those nice enough to donate them to me, I WILL take as many as I can get lol
---

thank you Lordloki for giving me some codes
---

---

---
