One newspaper insert good for a Mini Cooper

2008-mini-cooper-corner.jpg

The Seminole Casino Coconut Creek has purchased newspaper inserts with bar codes in the left-hand corner, and the SunSentinel will stuff them in its Thursday papers. One of the inserts has a bar code good for a Mini Cooper.

You have from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday to hit the casino and check your SunSentinel insert. Prizes also include 10 $1,000 winners and 100 $100 winners.

Actually, the insert gives you two chances to win a Mini Cooper, the casino's Michael Michaud points out. That's because in the upper-right corner of each insert is a coupon for a "second-chance" drawing entry. Redeem the coupon, then throw the entry into the casino's barrel each following Sunday between 9 a.m. and the noon drawing time, when the casino will give away yet another car. (Personally, I like those odds; how many people are really going to be there on a Sunday morning?)

The inserts are part of Coconut Creek's "Car a Day in May" promotion.

Not even a chance at a car will drive me to purchase this paper anymore. The quality has gone to h.e.l.l.

what do you know, my home deliverd paper had the barcode missing. i will be calling the paper.

I get the paper delivered, no ad, no insert no barcode. I think it's a scam to sell papers.
