So I've been GPS spoofing and collecting eggs for a few days now, suddenly no more are showing up. Could be that I've maxed out my inventory but I'm not sure.

For some reason there are no eggs today, it's not just you.
So it's you, lol. How many years supply of ice cream did you get? Or cakes or catering. Even with the free scoops, there's a limit of 5000 or something. Must have been all scooped up
Still capped to 4 eggs per day, if not I would've grabbed them all around NZ, lol. Best prize ive gotten so far is a pint of boots on the moon - reward (d) in the OP
What's this GPS spoofing you speak of? I was wondering about how to do that haha. I also saw no eggs yesterday at all so perhaps they are all used up!
New eggs are available from noon onwards each day. Last year's comp was great, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Yeah got a new stash of eggs yesterday. I figured out the spoofing thing so I was able to get them while still at work. Eggsellent :)
@ScoobyNZ: Someone grabbed like hundreds at mission bay, then dumped all the BOGOF ones at the same place, lol
@The Hound: Ohh you can drop and delete the ones you don't want.. That makes it easier to clean up the ones you know you're not going to use haha.. Thanks!
There are app store apps to do it, fakes gps data on your mobile to wherever you want. Useful for these types of promos with pins/movement required to claim stuff.
Lucky! Mine keeps throwing the error code 400 everytime I grab them. Probably detecting I'm spoofing?
Yesterday I just get all boring upgrades and today I get four pints of chip happens. What is going on with this promotion? I just want to get the years free supply :P Seems to be harder to get the vatoms now too compared to last week.
Yeap same with me.. all eggs today are pints
I saw it posted on fb comp groups and the nz subreddit so alot more people trying now
Whats interesting is the Pints that they are giving away are not part of the prize pool…
Maybe they ran out of other prizes already.
@HighvoltageRuss: ooo thanks for pints. Last year's comp was easier to play, cause you can actually see the catering vatom (worth $$ hundreds) appearing in a spot. Now you have to actually hunt for them. Also, the vatoms will expire around May, so technically you can't redeem a year's supply of pints, lol
With GPS spoofing, I suspect the whole country is playing the game haha. Then come Easter holidays, they will travel to the main centres to redeem their prizes.
Hey what subreddit group do you use for comping @teckiwi?
Has anybody had luck redeeming the remaining vouchers last few days?
The store refused to accept the voucher saying the promo ended already even though the T&Cs show the vouchers are valid until 4 MayYip no issues here, at the Cuba mall store. They told me no new ones are being released but existing ones are valid until may
They pulled the same stunt last year, but since I won a year's supply of ice cream, it didn't bother me much. I did not win this year, so will be pissed off if they tried that on me now.
No issues for me at the base Hamilton.
Maybe I was just unlucky. I guess I'll go instore to try again
Which branch is this? It's basically the franchisee's fault for creating their own rules. I suggest reporting them to BJ (Ben & Jerry!) head office first, then to Comcom if franchisee still refuses to honour the coupons.
Haven't tried going to a store to redeem. So what do you do, just rock up and say give me my pint and show the phone?
Pretty much yes. You tap to redeem the one you want, they scan a code in store and it uses it. You then get a 'buy one scoop get one free' voucher to show that its been redeemed.
My phone seems to glitch after every single use though, showing a "please wait" message. However if you cancel the screen, and re load the browser, it will show as being used.
However a new work around I found on my phone (S21 Ultra) is to close the s-view case, reopen it, and it's done.
Had the same issue!
Ah, thought it was just me!
No, apparently an issue with a number of people. Dunno if it's a type of phone thing or Android v Apple thing.
Assume this is just missing "or New Zealand" "Every collected Vatom corresponds to a prize which could be redeemed at any Ben & Jerry’s Scoop Shop in Australia."
Anyone know if there's normally Vatoms around Dunedin? I'm heading to Wellington in April so would redeem there.
