Enjoy.

Is that real?

Anyways, they don't have Target Stores around here. :(

Real? Worked for me so I guess so.

Shame no Target stores here in the UK :(

Hrmm... we have Target here in Australia - although the "20-oz" might arouse some suspicion :)

"Content on Hypermart members pages is not the responsibility of Hypermart"

that very reassuring
:stickout

That pops on all Hypermart sites, I believe.

Unsure of the validity of this.... but, here are some more from the site

Be careful, these coupons might be altered - nice jailtime ahead.

BTW I like the main page at http://icc2000.hypermart.net/ :D

Mmm. Yummy.

The baby ruth one expires 7/30/02 :bawling:

Baby Ruth is nasty...plus it's named after a dead guy LOL

I am not even going to say what I Baby Ruth looks like to me!

Actually, it IS NOT named for Babe Ruth -- or so the company claimed in court!

I'd Watch out... A couple months back a guy did this to Starbucks... Starbucks lost millions on the phony coupons..... I would watch out...

And they'd most likely go after the forger not the un-aware person receiving the coupon altough the law would say if a resonable person could belive it to be true (the coupon) you'd probably be able to get away with it...

I was just saying... I don't want someone getting out of there computer chair (and mess up the ass groove) to go and run out and try and get one...I don't like to see people disappointed....

After all, we all know coke can corrode an iron chain in 3 days flat.

Wow, two urban legends in one thread!

Supposedly, the Baby Ruth candy bar, which was first manufactured by the Curtiss Candy Company in Chicago in 1920, was named after Grover Cleveland's daughter Ruth, who died as an infant some years earlier but was apparently a folk favorite.

But... personally I don't buy it (well, ok, I have bought a few Baby Ruth bars). That was the cover story after slugger Babe Ruth sued in 1921, trying to collect royalties after kids kept asking him to sign their candy bar wrappers. The company pleaded innocent: "no, it's named after a little girl who died almost 20 years ago, not the fast-becoming-famous baseball player! It's just a coincidence!" Of course, no one really knows what motivated the name, but I don't find it hard to believe that even in the '20's corporate lawyers already had a handle on spin.

So, will Coca-Cola corrode through chains, loosen rusty bolts, clean rust off car bumpers, remove the meat from a T-bone steak bone left in it for a few days, dissove a tooth left in a cup to nothing in two days, clean toilets bowls, et cetera? Well, yeah, it will do some of those things, eventually, but so will water. So, especially, will soda water. Yeah, coke has some citric acid, but only about 0.20 percent -- two tenths of a percent of the mix. And there's some carbonic acid, a very weak dibasic acid, at roughly the same levels.

Put a T-bone, a tooth, and a chain in Coke for two days and you'll still have a steak, a tooth and a chain. I wouldn't recommend eating the steak.

Actually, it's the phosphoric acid in cola drinks that corrodes. And it's not an urban myth, just ask your dentist.

They use it to clean the blood off the highway after a fatal accident too. :eek:

The coupon worked fine for me, it scanned right at the register. If the coupon was phony, Target's system wouldn't accept it. Also, I should note and I'm not the one who originally found it on Target's Web site, I came across it in a thread on anandtech.com.

it was just one as I remember, caddy shack 1

Don't suppose this would work if the coupon was black and white... *laugh*

I saw that on another forum. I got a vanilla coke from my target :D. AND I'LL DO IT AGAIN!!!

I did a check on the UPC and although it doesn't show exactly what it is for, it does verify that it is a coupon for free merchandise:

"Free Merchandise"? So couldn't I put a picture of a TV on there?
"FREE TV!"

It's cool ! Wow!!!!

Sorry, I left out phosphoric acid which, yes, is there in low quantities along with citric and carbonic acids. Just like it's in a lot of other things, like orange juice, at similar levels.

The myth is not that drinking Coke might promote tooth decay; I'd agree with your dentist on that note. So will candy bars, and regular chewing gum, and, well... almost anything you eat. That's why you should brush them.

The myth is that if you put a tooth (or a bone, or a nail, there are many versions of the tale) in Coke it will dissolve to nothing in a couple of days. Of course it will eventually, (meaning a timeline on the order of months) but so what? The point is that the concentrations of the acids in Coca-Cola, orange juice, etc., is so low that it causes no problems and your digestive system will handle it just fine.

And no, they don't use Coke to clean blood off the street after an accident. Trust me, I know that one first hand.

LOL why dont you give it a try and let us know?;-)

Anyone know if target stores carries vanilla coke?

*prints off 100 coupons and starts counting out quarters to little kids*

:D mmm vanilla coke :homer:

*runs off to the printer and starts printing coupons*. I'm out of coke to.. Now I don't have to buy any just print 100's and use them all until then they expire:D

caddy shack

coke use to contain cocaine leaves but were later banned around 1920, must have been addicting :)

Wonders when I'm going to have time to go to Target ..

Tim, use your Paypal :D
