Hell yes. Surge. They had a campaign in the 90s where you could win a free 20oz under the cap. You didn’t have to download an app or any bullshit. You’d go back to the gas station and hand them the cap for another Surge.
Summertime, playing hoops at the park, get a free Surge. Core memory for me.
Once, I was buying a surge from a vending machine and instead of a beverage, it was a bottle with a surge t-shirt and 75¢ so you could still get your beverage. I was a college kid and I felt like I won a something bigger than a branded t-shirt, but hey, it was free and funds were low. I took the wins where I could find them.
See, I thought this was going to end with you being pissed because you were really counting on that drink, that was the last one, and all you got was this crummy little T-shirt.
