Guess what finally came in the mail...
The enclosed cert comes with a list of local and regional retailers that sell the product. Not worth the effort for a free mini.

I got a fancy letter last week apologizing that they couldn't send me a free mini due to TX state law. It included the aforementioned list of retailers selling the stuff.
But, I wouldn't call mine a 'certificate' as nothing free was available at said retailers either.
It seems to me they could have printed the 'invalid states' on the original website. All in all, a total waste!

I finally got a letter in the mail a few weeks ago. It is basically a rebate. You have to send them in your receipt to get $5 back. Doubt that you can get much with $5. Mine did not include a list of retailers like one of the previous posters mentioned.

Now I'm wondering if mine will arrive after all. I'm in OR. Did the letter say what other states are not eligible? Like you said, it would have been nice to have the restrictions listed right there on the website.
