Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: The Moe & Brian Pyramid of CARS Contest!
Moe & Brian have generously donated this great package of CARS that will cut down on your Target shopping in case you didn’t get to go or someone has cleared the shelves already …
Pretty sweet prize – like having your private Target shopper … this is your wedding wish list, right?
So, how do you win Moe & Brian’s great Target CARS Week Giveaway?
Pretty simple – look at the series of photos below -you need to answer of series of guesses that act as tiebreakers 🙂
Guess the retail net worth of every CAR item you see (ignore any non-CARS items – they are just there to hold up the stack).
Guess the cumulative number of miles driven.
Guess the cumulative amount of time spent gathering these CARS items.
So, write CONTEST ENTRY (on your entry), then supply three numbers in the order of the question: USD cume, miles cume & amount of time cume.
The first qualifier is you must be closest but below the$ amount spent (or exactly on target) – earliest person who guesses that amount gets in first obviously.
Then the tie breakers are the cume miles and the cume time spent – both guesses again below the number already supplied to me.
You may enter once every 12 hours.
Contest starts RIGHT NOW and runs until Sunday, October 18, 2009 11:59:59 PM PDT.
Good luck! And thanks Brian & Moe for a huge and generous prize package.
The gallery auto repeats the PRIZE PACKAGE photo – but do NOT COUNT the $ value of the prize package that in your guess. Right click on each photo to view at full size. Good luck!
Thanks again Moe & Brian.

PD joked about Happy Meals the other day, but seriously, I forgot to factor in your White Castle stops in my entries to date, so I will need to adjust my new next few guesses.
mmmmmm Teeny burgers (in my best gurgling Homer Simpson voice)
Man I like those but they sure make me suffer later. Brian doesn’t like them so we bypass the Belly Bombers. They used to be cheap to eat but the last time I was there they were about $.80 a piece. We need In N Out Burger here. They are the best especially a quad with cheese!! MMmmmmmmmMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmm

this contest is making me laugh. If Moe and Brian have spent more than 5 days looking for cars and counted every single second of it, then they have my vote for biggest car nerd of the year. (Can’t give it to Met and Tiz all the time). And I do mean that in the nicest possible way 🙂
(MET: As a CARS Nerd, I’m not in the Top 10 in the Bay Area … 🙂 ).

Oh, contest entry, by the way
Don’t have one of those! Makes it a lot easier on my son and I!! 😉

Do you sleep?? 4:53am??
I wondered that myself! 🙂
I was up all night graphing the expected purchases of a collector, based on the median earning power of someone in the Southern Illinois / St. Louis metropolitan area. I kept my kids up as well, using all of their crayons to create the accompanying bar charts.
Serious answer: Take5’s servers are based in Utah, so every comment is time-stamped with Mountain Time Zone, so I was really up at 5:53am. 🙂
You are only about 180 miles from us. I was in Lake of Ozarks a couple weeks ago for Bike Fest. 13 of us rode our Harley’s down for a fun weekend. Didn’t hit no store so you could get them. Would have been hard putting Cars items in the bags on the bike.:)
We saw you!! …well, one of 700 bikers we counted.
Seriously, we were heading down there on that Sunday, and saw about 12-15 bikes heading back toward St. Louis together. That would be a riot if you were in that same crowd.
And thanks for leaving everything on the pegs for us!
Could have been. We left after breakfast at Denny’s about 11:00 am and hit rain in Jeff. City so had to stop before big turn towards bridge to put rain gear on, then we went on in the rain.
We were in the silver minivan.
oh, you said minivan. Sobs.
:-O
That was supposed to be an emoticon. 😉
On my way home from Toys R Us last week, a crazy guy in a Hummer rearended me at a red light. On the side of the Hummer was a custom paint job that says “crazy Larry”. He was about 70 years old. My van was totaled. Luckily I wasnt hurt just a bit sore. Oh, and TRU didnt have anything good, the bastiges.
That is so scary Lorri, we’re glad you’re OK!
That narrows it down!!!!!!!
Silver minivan with Missouri plates.
Narrower!! Is that a word? 8)
MOE, do you still ride a Harley? I ride a Volusia, now Boulevard….one of these days we should meet in Daytona or something!
Yes I do and Brian loves it too. I want to go to Bike Week in Daytona and hope next year it will happen.
Could you give me the figures for our books?
Your books, or the ones you show the IRS?
just the books!!
I will disclose the numbers after I’ve won the contest. 🙂

I have a question…do you want the actual time spent, in the car & shopping in hours, or the time in days/months it took to accumulate all that stuff?
How many hours driving from leaving home and getting back home.
just toys shown without counting the cases.
975.00
with cases
1,700.
seeing how most of these are available in stores, id say a nice shopping day at a couple of different stores. totaling 15 miles and about a 4 hour time period including travel and hanging out.

We were thinking $1,178.26 for all the visible items by the way.
CONTEST ENTRY
$700, 1556 miles, about 6mo.
We have an answer only counting the visible uncased items, but I need to know if the cases are full. 🙂
Quick Question — I read the rules and understand that I should ignore any non-CARS items and that they are just there to hold up the stack, so does that include the Mattel cases? Or are we guessing the value inside those as well?
(MET: Only CARS items count in the total).
Are we adding sales tax too, or just sticker prices?
Its the cases too as they are all Cars items. No sales tax. Total before tax. These pics are an all around view. Just ignore the Hot Wheels and Larry’s Garage sets. They hold it all up.
OK, sorry, but just for double-clarification, those cases are all full still?
hahhahah JOHN i was thinking the same thing haha i keep flipping through the pics and im like hmmm LOL
So let me be blonde for 1 minute since I still don’t understand either. We need to guess the total of everything in the pictures, including the cases which are still full of product?? Or just the stuff that is out of the cases??
Yes John the cases are full.
where are they from anyways? I know looking for new Cars in their area would be pretty pointless…
Illinois and St. Louis area. 8)
nice!
