That's my point

I mean, not to sound like a couple of drinks in Y are gonna break me, but it's the pure principle of it.
A couple of drink coupons here and there isn't a big issue. But the rules should apply for all 12 months of the year. CO seems to be saying qualify before December or no freebies. I am sensitive to the cost savings issue however. Conversely, CO should double up or make the December qualifiers "whole" (e.g. throw in the extra coupons or perks) in the Feb. packets. Yes I know fat chance.
