M&Ms has a contest running where if you find a bag with just brown M&Ms, you win $10,000. So why not just buy a few bags and put all the brown ones in one bag? Maybe I can do it a few times and get $50,000!

I'm sure theres some sort of indicator that you have the winning bag

a ticket

the M&Ms have a special mark

etc

If that's the case, why not advertise "Find the weird stamped brown M&Ms" or "Find the Brown Ticket". Trust me, this is airtight. You'll regret it when I get $10,000 and you have nothing.

How many Brown M&M's are you going to put in the bag?

What if that is the wrong number?

Also, the inside of the bag will say YOU WIN, soo....

The actual sign you won is always the bag, not the actual M&M's.

Maybe you could just write '' You win! '' inside the bag, nobody would notice it's not official.

Maybe they just want you to ASSUME there's some sort of proof in the actual bag!

It's a pain to print alternate wrappers, I'd assume!

Obviously I'd count how many are in the normal bag then get that many brown ones. It's not that hard to figure out.

I'm just E-mailed Mars Incorporated and warned them of a lunatic on Board 8 with a dastardly plan to steal money from them.

You got snitched. Deal with it.

Exactly. I mean, sure, you may have won $10,000, but what if you were really jonesing for some M&Ms? Then you couldn't eat them. That would be a horrible situation.

I remember when they had that "Find the gray M&M" thing back in the nineties. I was at some sort of group rec activity at the park and the counselors just dumped a bag of M&Ms on a paper plate, asked us kids if we saw the gray one and then just took the M&Ms away without letting us touch them or eat them.

Drat, I was going to collect my winnings under the name "MarvelousGerbil" as well. I guess I'll have to go with "DCousGerbil"
