A couple months back, Dr. Pepper’s marketing VP Tony Jacobs said that they would provide every American with a free Dr. Pepper if Chinese Democracy actually came out in 2008. I think Jacobs, like everyone else, thought another year would pass with still no album from Axl.
Now that Chinese Democracy is officially coming out, I’m sure some of you wondered if the Dr. Pepper offer was even serious one to begin with. The answer is yes. Recently Jacobs announced that the company was thrilled the new album was finally coming out, and that they will honor their original offer. Jacobs told Billiboard: “We never thought this day would come, but now that it’s here all we can say is: The Dr Pepper’s on us.”
On the November 23rd release date, everyone living in the US can go to DrPepper.com and register to receive a print out coupon for a free 20-oz. The coupon will work at any store or business that sells Dr. Pepper. However, the coupon will only be available online for 24 hours, and it expires on Feb 28th. So be sure to register on time.
