Subway Frustrations

Subway has this promotion going called 'Fresh Resolutions.' Go to Subway and they give you a scratch card with two parts. Rub away the large circle and (annoyingly) you get this 'resolution' like: "Exercise More" or "Save Money." Well gee, thanks.

Scratch off the other circle and you find a code. You have to go to the Subway website and then register(!) and enter the code. And then (are we frsutrated yet) you wait while this Flash animation 'scratches' off to show you that you didn't win anything. Surprise!

I'm sure it would be different if you won something...

But, this highlights one thing about long, gratuitous Flash animations; they might be marginally fun the first time, but they get boring really quick.
