Gamertell

Beverage companies have been targeting gamers for a while.

Recall Harcos’ Mana Drink, Mountain Dew more than once and, of course, various Bawls brews.

The latest beverage endeavor is by Hint Inc., a company that specializes in flavored water sans sugar. Instead of rebranding an existing product with a lame gamer-esque name or some fancy art, Hint has instead decided to piggyback the popularity of Nintendo’s exercise game, Wii Fit Plus.

The deal is this: Buy Wii Fit Plus before December 15, 2009, scan the receipt and send the digital copy of your receipt to hintwater@5wpr.com and Hint will send you a case of their product.

When you email Hint, be certain to include your mailing address and your preferred flavor choice from the following list:

• Blackberry
• Watermelon
• Pomegranate Tangerine
• Mango Grapefruit
• Raspberry Lime

The promotion ends December 15, 2009, and there is a limit of one case per household. A promotional case contains 12 16-ounce bottles of a single flavor and retails for US$22. (If you order a case through the company web site, it contains 24 16-ounce bottles and sells for $44 with free shipping in the US.)

Just for fun, tell ‘em Gamertell sent ya.
