She freaked out and we took her back to the store to enquire about collecting the prize, where the store owner said "that contest was back in the fall young lady, its no good no more"

Are you fucking kidding me? My kids choked, It was pretty hard to leave the store without snapping out on the owner, who figured the $10-20 worth of cups wasnt worth spending to replace them with new cups.

Why would you sell contest cups to kids when you knew the contest was expired.

Tomorrow I'll call the slushpuppy headquarters and see if they can help convince me that meatspin shouldn't be the top result for their brand search.

you got played homie, thats a the oldest trick in the book.

false advertising is a huge crime in the US.

If i were you i would contact state and report the business for false advertising.

I'm glad it all worked out, but I'd be wary of that place in the future. God knows what else is sitting around there past it's shelf date...
