Pringles Xtreme Facebook "Scam" Update

Remember the Facebook Pringles Xtreme free coupon offer that I posted about a month or so ago? Shortly after posting this free coupon offer, many Hip2Save readers (including myself) began to question whether the offer was legitimate. In fact, I was so sure that this offer was a scam that I posted an update on Hip2Save stating that the Pringles offer was illegitimate (you can view that post here). Well…it turns out I was wrong (yes, I am occasionally wrong 😉 shhh, don’t tell my husband I said that). Check out the emails that I received yesterday from readers, Chrissie and Allison…

Collin, I just wanted to let you know that I received a coupon today for a free can of Xtreme Pringles. It has to be from the “Facebook scam” a few months ago. Seems it was legit after all!

Hey Collin- I’m sure you remember about a month ago when there was all that hullaballoo about the Pringles Xtreme and the illegitimate Facebook offer. I deleted the group, as was suggested and didn’t think anymore about it……that is until today. Guess what showed up in my mailbox? A coupon for 1 free can of Pringles Xtreme! Just thought you’d like to know. Thanks for all the hard work you put into helping all of us save money!

So how about you? Have you received your coupon yet?

    We got our Pringles coupon in the mail today! We also got a Wisk detergent sample from Costco, Crest toothpaste sample, and the Zone Perfect Cookie Dough bar coupons! Thanks for posting all the great freebies and deals! It makes checking the mailbox fun!

  34. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I haven’t gotten mine yet, but I had called them and they said it was a scam. Weird!

    • JennyB

      It is not a scam, I guess if u don’t want ur coupon I could give u my address to send it my way? lol just teasing….Honestly though I emailed them directly and they validated that it is a legit coupon!

      • Alea

        I emailed them and called them and everyone I heard from with the company said it was a scam and they knew nothing about it. Even the Pringles xtreme facebook page was saying it wasn’t legit. It was a pretty poorly run promotion overall. A couple weeks afterwards I got a letter and a coupon letting me know it was a legit promotion afterall. *shrugs*

  35. Cheeze2k

    I did not apply because of the Hard Sell on the SCAM notice. I missed out on this one.

  36. CathyMerchant

    Got mine, I also got the Fisher Price toy truck thing that I didn’t think I was able to get through on!!!!

  37. Denise

    got mine, also got the 24 pkgs of Pepperidge Farm Milano cookies and a Bath/massage pkg…I had a good mail day !!

  38. Rachel

    i had such a good mailbox freebie day and the pringles coupon was one of them. i took a pic of the stuff thinking i might email it to you….but im sure you get a ton of emails. 🙂
    thanks for all you do.

    • Rachel

      i got the free bamboo untensil holder from one kings lane, 2 free cookie dough bar coupons from zone, sample of crest toothpaste, sample of wisk, and a sample of the vaseline lotion….all in one day. oh and we also got 3 boxes of paper from office max that will be free after maxperks rewards.

  39. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I got mine today—so is it OK to use? I only want to use legit coupons.

  40. Angela K

    Got mine today! I have found that it typically takes at least a month or so to receive any coupons…

  41. mkw

    A coupon arrived to Northern Iowa today!

  42. Tracy

    i got mines today

  43. AM

    I got mine today but I do find it odd that half of it is in spanish including reversed expiration date

    • JennyB

      Weird, I took a picture and sent mine to Collin, I wish she would post it so people could see it! I have a hard time believing you just b/c mine wasn’t like that, are u really sure?

      • JennyB

        I just looked at my picture, that is how they show the date in other countries, and its not half in spanish. They put it in english and spanish, thats how a lot of things are. Sorry your comment was very misleading, I know its legit though so use it or throw it out! Tired of people not believing what people are saying about how they contacted the company. These people who are hearing from the company its a scam are full of bologna, they are either calling a branch of corporate who has no clue or are lying. Email or call the # from http://WWW.PRINGLES.COM and get the facts people!

        • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

          Wow! Feeling a bit judgemental? I went to the P&G website and called customer service and talked to the Pringles customer service people. All who said it was not legitimate. Why would I lie about that?

  44. karen

    got my pringles coupon today

  45. Alysa Hart

    My boyfriend and I both got ours! Thanks Collin!

  46. CJ

    Good to hear it was legit. I always seem to get my free coupons and samples about 2 weeks after everyone else reports receiving them, so I have a bit to wait yet.

  47. Wendy

    I had forgotten about it until I read this post, then when my mail came this afternoon – there it was! Thanks for all you Collin!

  48. Kim

    I got mine today!

  49. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Got mine too!

  50. Nikki H

    I got mine a few days ago….
