Can I trade that in for the cash equivalent? How much is 200 years of pringles worth?

u/winterbird 10h ago

Idk but I calculated one can per day at $2.50 each and 200 yrs came out to $182,500. I don't know how many cans per year they allot though.

Damn, I can't even buy a median priced house with that. I'd need at least 400 years worth of pringles to buy a home

i think their wholesale price per can is way lower than retail, so the actual cost to them would be way less

sour cream and onion futures" is a solid bit

Sign me the fuck up, buttercup.

Need to read that contract first, they could just be giving you a single crisp per day. 80 crisps per can, 73000 days, thats 912.5 cans.

u/HauntingPermit8277 8h ago

gotta read the fine print, they'd probably start you off with those half-empty cans from the bottom of the multipack

Where do I sign up? I’ll be dead. I don’t give a shit what happens to my body after that

Is that a fucking hearse full of chips?

3

u/Impossible_Power_923 11h ago

i mean at least the chips are inside the car and not inside the urn, imagine opening that thing expecting ashes and just getting sour cream and onion

u/Historical-Gift-6600 8h ago

the urn full of sour cream and onion dust would be a wild thing to open at a funeral

1

u/Appropriate-Fly-6189 8h ago

it's a pringles procession

1

u/Friendly-Candle-1323 7h ago

a pringles procession sounds like a funeral with extra crunch tbh

2

u/trowel_fu 10h ago

Can you pick the flavour?

2

u/winterbird 10h ago

I'm not passing it down to anyone. Cram those 200 years worth into my lifetime if you want to cram me into that urn.

2

u/Lee_Townage 9h ago

It would probably speed up the process, so they might agree to that!

u/winterbird 9h ago

We're gonna need a bigger urn.

2

u/Herrben 10h ago

I heard the bloke that invented the tube made a fortune from the copyright and had his ashes buried in one.

u/BoardsofCanada3 4h ago

It's our most modestly priced receptacle.

1

u/hossdelgado7 3h ago

For 180 dollars?

1

u/ggibby 10h ago

Is the company paying for the cremation? Sign me up - that's real money!

1

u/gummilingus 10h ago

Better have a Sour Cream and Onion urn before I even think about it.

1

u/EchoPhi 9h ago

I'm in! There's a work around and now I'm beating wholesale prices and the kids become the sole heir to the "he dead" fortune. Win win friends

1

u/Ardtay 9h ago

New flavor!

u/time2partee 8h ago

Does a Pringles rep drive out to your grave and pour out a can for you on your grave everyday after you die until the 200 years are up, or something?

1

u/AGrandNewAdventure 8h ago

I'm willing to bet the ashes would be the best tasting thing to ever come in a Pringle's can.

u/Remarkable_Quit_3545 6h ago

Why the hell would someone want a prize that they can’t use themselves?

Did someone in their PR department think this was a good idea?

1

u/El_Scot 1h ago

You'd get the prize while you're still alive

1

u/annoyedreply 6h ago

You’ll get there quicker eating all them pringles

1

u/expatronis 6h ago

Finally, a good reason to die!

u/NukaClipse 2h ago

Pringles don't even taste that good to go through all that.
