I also got mine last week, but still shrink wrapped and don't know what's inside.

Not worth buying, IMHO. Oh, and my foam ball was a black 8-ball.

It's part of Mini's branding strategy: customer retention and loyalty.
Seems to be working, as you're sharing this with us.

Picked up my car May 10, 2007. Never received a MINI Adventure Kit.
Anyone who purchased from MINI of Mountain View get one?

I got mine a couple weeks ago (my antenna topper was a die), and a 'MINI PARKING ONLY' stencil came a week later. I even took the secret decoders to the library and used them on back issues that had ads from the previous campaign. Hopefully the fact that they're still issuing them means there's going to be more secret message ads in the future.

I received mine a couple of months after buying my MINI....althought, my car was purchased "used" from the MINI dealer. Still got the kit. Actually, the car was a dealer loaner, but was still technically used.
Did you all sign up on the Owner's Lounge? I received the kit after signing up and just assumed that was why I got it. Could be coincidence, though.

Mine was a die (that's singular for dice right?)

Yup, signed up early on, but no kit.

I got mine a couple of weeks back. Its really a neat idea of Mini, it shows to me at least the company knows that those little things like this keep people coming back and recommending the car to other people.

I didn't either, picked up my Mini on Oct 17th.
I emailed MiniUSA and requested one. They were sorry I hadn't received it yet and sent out a new one, with a 4-6 week wait of course.

The pen and the 8ball is all I have left. I don't know where all the other items have disappeared to.

I went into the owners lounge and requested one, just to see if I could get one... The email me back and said I would get it on a few weeks or so.
All I said is that "I bought my MINI from "A" dealer and that I was wondering if I could request one".
So you can try going to the owners lounge and sending them a an email to the customer service... Its what I did...
