Subject: Fwd: Blockbuster Nights - FREE Movies, Popcorn and Cokes
Hi all, I thought you might want to use this coupon - enjoy! For those Summer Blockbuster nights! Attached is a free coupon for 2 movie rentals, popcorn, and (2) 20-oz Cokes. Please print the coupon and pass this on to others. For those of you who are thinking about using it more than once..... don't even think about it!! The catch to the coupon is this: You can only use it ONCE and it is noted on your Blockbuster account.  Click to Enlarge Screenshot of .PDF file circulating via email |
Comments: This Blockbuster coupon, circulating via email since August 2007, is fraudulent and invalid according to a local Blockbuster Video outlet I contacted. The printable coupon was apparently genuine when originally issued to Blockbuster subscribers, but was reproduced and mass-distributed without authorization.
