Trying to buy something is worse than trying to get a fukubukuro, had something in my cart but it sold out before I could buy it. Now I can't even get the pages to load.

- @axleman1011 OK I get it. It's a viral marketing thing tied into those commercials with the mayhem guy. Allstate's marketing budget is way too big.

The site appears to be broken, which of course makes me really really want to see it.

- @meow57 I think they really are selling stuff. Or at least there are people on Twitter who think they have purchased things.

- @meow57 It's not a real shopping site, but it looks like this is a creative way for them to give away a car.

I tried to buy a paper bag for 29 cents (and free shipping!) just to see what would happen and it said I was too slow. Somebody else got it.

What a creative way to market.
I wonder who got the 2014 car for $200. Damn.

I know this is a marketing stunt (clever as it may be), but did they actually sell the items on the site?

Thanks for sharing this. I bought the pink stapler. Then went to bed. There was no way I had a shot at the car.

- I got a confirmation and they charged me $1. Let's see if they come through with stapler.
