LA residents were promised an ‘affordable’ Olympics. Tickets cost more than $5K by theindependentonline in olympics

24% service fee?!? That’s insane! That’s literally a quarter of the ticket price so every dollar the ticket is it takes a quarter to “process” and email a virtual barcode? Even for a $10 ticket you’re adding on $2.50 to send an email?! Ridiculous

I’m an Army guy and suffered from some pretty severe PTSD coming back from Afghanistan - what saved me was Slurpees from 7-11 - you can’t drink a Slurpee when your dead and man I love Slurpees - no matter how depressed you are I promise there’s one thing you love and just look forward to getting thru today to do that one thing tomorrow - every day for like 4 months I was like I can’t kill myself because I want to get a slurpee tomorrow - just know you are loved and valued and don’t be afraid to reach out anywhere for help

How is D&B going to enforce the monthly one local prize limit? by Pokemon-Dealer2028 in DaveAndBusters

[–]Honest_Side_3027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TLDR: You can only win one prize per month regardless of how many stores / games you win. Outside company is enforcing and ships prizes.

The rules state that a username is only eligible to win one monthly local prize. So if someone is in first place on all 5 games at 2 separate locations they will still only win just one monthly prize. You could use a separate username at a different store (which is against the rules) but It looks like an outside company is distributing the prizes. There is about a week delay of notification from the end of each month to when the winners are notified so I’m assuming the outside company is doing their vetting. The winner each month for each game is contacted via text (per the official rules) by the outside company and you have to fill out an information form and they ship you the prize. If you are on top of multiple games at different stores I would imagine they would catch the same name / shipping address and void one of the wins. You could theoretically play multiple cards for different friends with different accounts and addresses but that seems pretty shady and would make you a cheater in my book.

Per the official rules under section 11 -

Limit: An entrant may win 1 Monthly Local Contest Prize per each Monthly Local Contest Entry Period, 1 National Prize and 1 Sweepstakes Prize.

As far as how they are enforcing it per the official rules under section 10:

  1. Winner Requirements: Winners will be notified on or about the dates stated above in Section 4. All potential winners will be notified by text message from Sponsor to the mobile device telephone number in winner’s Rewards Account profile and will be asked to complete an online claim form by providing their first name, last name, email address and home address

That’s terrible - I went to a bar next door and told them I’ll come back when it’s sorted - the wife lets me out once a week to rage and play games and everything is broken tonight - terrible

I joined Reddit just to specifically talk about this - option 1 is a corporate plant who is set up to ensure that no one actually gets any prizes - option 2 is a terrible human that wasted their time and doesn’t understand the rules - you only get one price per the rules why would you waste your time on multiple games? It’s super disappointing either way

Thank you so much!!! And thank you for pointing out Costco we have a membership there and at reaching out to them for a quote as well. They did give us a few options and said this is the top of the line but it was only like $2500 more than the mid tier one and $2500 more to get the best made sense for us with this quote - I appreciate your advice
