1990's Canadian Nintendo Ruffles, Chee-tos, Doritos, Hostess, Pepsi Contest Rule Mat

Sph1nx

Nintendo ran a Canadian contest sometime in the early 90's involving Pepsi, Hostestt, Ruffles, Doritos and Chee-tos. In specality marked bags of chips you recieved scratch games which could be scratched off to reveal prizes. I can find NOTHING about this contest online. I am about to list a prize rules mat from this on eBay, and would love to include some more info on the contest. Anyone have anything from this, or remember it, or have info online somewhere?

Accidentally posted this in the wrong section, sorry. Oh well, I'll just throw the auction up so this doesn't have to be moved.

Edited my previous post as I threw the auction up. Basically a stupid BIN to solicit offers.

Was it the early 90s? I had always thought it was 89 or something based on my childhood memories. I remember trying to look this contest up a year or two ago in hopes of finding something to have but didn't find much (admittedly, i didn't put too much effort into it). I would love to know more about this as well, if anyone has more vivid memories than I. I remember being really excited about these as a kid.

Here's a commercial! (claims 89)







Too bad this was canada only, otherwise we'd likely have alot more documentation on it.

DUDE! Awesome find. I was thinking very early 90's based on how old I figured I was at the time.
