Sounds a little much to not be able to open the box, but good question, I was also wondering if packages are worth less if you open/flatten them out for storage.

When I put up the code I got yesterday I pulled out all the cans out from one end, only to find the code was in the other end of the box. >.< So unsealed one flap on the other end to peek in.. lol

haha That same exact thing happened to me! I decided to just use my phone to take a picture of the code instead of opening the other side.

I decided to open my case up and drank one of the Berry Punches for lunch. I am not a soda drinker but I have to admit that it tasted pretty good!! I think I am going to drink six of the cans and keep six unopened for my collection. Then just display the box on the shelf when I finally have my turtle room haha

If you save the cans, be sure to empty them. If you don't, they'll be prone to randomly exploding in the future (a lesson I learned from the Episode I cans). You can poke a hole in the bottom and let them drain.

Personally, I don't allow myself to save any food items anymore.

I might buy some to try for a free ticket. Or, if someone wins an extra and wants to share...

Odd happenings...I bought 3 of the TMNT 12 packs last night (Raph, Mike, and April). I opened the cases and only Mike had the TMNT cans The other two were just standard Crush cans. I am assuming they were left over cans in the factory.

I will be exchanging them tomorrow of course for the TMNT cans.

So, long story short be sure to peek through the handle portion of the case to double check that there are in fact TMNT cans in the TMNT case.

Oh yes, many, many, many of us learned that from the Episode 1 cans! A great friend of mine stored his episode 1 cans in this wooden cabinet in his room. One day he opened it and found that many of them had popped and there was enormous mess.

So I checked mine, which were stores under a guest bed at my parents house....

I have yet to find any, but thanks for the heads up. That would get me fuming if I got all the way home and it ended up being regular cans.

I do not find any of them in the stores in Sweden than.
But I think they come to Sweden when TMNT 2014 will have premiere in Sweden.
*I hope so anyway that they do.*

Thought I'd just point this out if it might help someone get that last code they need for a free ticket or something. They've got the usual "no purchase necessary" thing so there is a mail in for a free code.

Edit: On a different note... Wow, coincidence or...?
http://disney.wikia.com/wiki/Crush

Just realized that Crush...is the name of the turtle on Finding Nemo.

Damn. They're giving away almost one million free tickets. It's like they're afraid no one is going to go see it unless it's for free...

I have found orange at Safeway, the blue flavor at Albertsons in a case of cans, and tonight I found orange and grape 2 liters at our local Winco. So far I have only bought a 2 liter of the grape and orange though.
