I haven't gotten my code yet either, and I submitted mine like an hour and a half after it went live. :eek:

Only shows that if you're not american

I picked up 3 of the 6-pack fun size Butterfingers from Stop & Shop. Receipt says paid at 12:08 PM Eastern and I submitted a picture of the top half of the receipt with the quantity, price, and total at checkout clearly visible. I do not know if the photo has been flagged for review but I added up the price paid on my phone and it was .07 above the minimum. I got a e-mail saying it has been submitted at about 12:15 PM. Receipt for store says BTTRFNGR 6P 3.9Z so not Candy like others have reported. I imagine if you got a Shoprite near you it would say the same thing on the receipt

I didn't even get that. This promotion was a FusterCluck when they did it with FF7R and I see nothing has changed.

Oh cool my code came through

6hs - 7hs? I bought the bars like early in the morning before the event started and submitted right when submissions opened.

I submitted mine right at noon when the registration opened, got the approval email 3 hours later, and then about 3-4 hours after THAT got the mount in-game. Good luck!

I'm positively livid that they decided a limited quantity was an "okay" idea to begin with. 200k (sorry, 199,500 to be exact) is laughable when you consider that Aether alone has more than 150k current players, and that's 1 of 3 NA data centers :/ even if it was enough, any time a company does limited quantity, they're begging for scalpers to raise heck. I don't know if it was SE or Butterfinger that decided on a limit, but it doesn't make sense to me as to why any way I look at it. SE hasn't done limited digital codes before afaik, and you'd think Ferrero (Butterfinger's parent co) would want more sales. I'm leaning towards Butterfinger/Ferrero being at fault since their terms and conditions state "The approximate retail value of each Offer Item is $25" for a small, single-character, RESKIN mount which is absolute nonsense, since all single-character mounts on mogstation are $12 USD.

I'm just upset all around with this Promotion and how it was handled, and glad I checked reddit to see they were already out of stock before I wasted money on candy I hate.
