I flagged the post on Craigslist. jsnyd also works at the Clarendon store.

Yeah, takes a lot to flag one down, figured the fool would just repost it. Figured the best way was to escalate it to Revolution so they can invalidate the code. Thanks.

Looks like it’s been taken down. Can you summarize what it was, for the curious?

[Brent]

It was a link to a coupon that Revolution Cycles gives after completing an online survey. I’ve gotten them after having service done there.

The poster put something about how he wanted to screw over Revolution, so people should print out dozens of the coupon and keep using them until they expire in November.

“Just print out the image below and take to Revolution. I did a survey and got this coupon; there’s no bar code/scan ID on it- it’s just a code the cashier uses.

If the image below isn’t easy enough to see, click the link below. Coupon expires at the end of November. Visit each Revolution and pick up a couple Cliff bars or something- free- go every other day.

*Link Removed*

This is NOT an ad for Revolution; I’m not a fan of theirs and am passing this unlimited use coupon on to the cycling community in an effort to stick it to Revolution, just a little bit.

•Location: cyberspace
•it’s NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests”

Cut and paste, I still had it cached

Thanks for the verbatim post. I’m going to remove the live link since we all seem to get the idea now.

I’ll let Revolution know about it as well.

Ok, the IT guy in me needs to point out that the linked pic had the surveymonkey cookie ID in the URL, so the fool that did it is 100% trackable if SurveyMonkey will disclose to Revolution. I’m evil like that, if I worked at Revolution I’d call the fool to thank him for all the business he brought

No kidding – does the guy not know how coupons work? He was doing Revolution a favor. Dolt.

Hmm, wonder what happened to make him want to do that?? I’ve only cashed in 2. Funny thing is I think one person actually did buy a cliff bar haha!
