Ok do for Christmas I got ten free trips to my local field coupons. That was great, but we still had to pay for paint.

Paint is wayyy overpriced there, $80 a case, so I decide to bring some friends along to split the price of paint up. (evil me :P )

And apparently on the coupons it says 500 paintball minimum. I thought the case would be over enough.(I only brought two friends). But apparently not. It meant 500 per person. Which means I have to pay $35 for 500 balls 4 separate times!!!! Do the math, and you'll see why I'm mad.

Well, fields can't give away coupons for ten free days of play. They'd lose money.

How much paint did you guys need?

Why couldn't they buy their own paint? You had to buy it all?

Rough conversion here but. I have to pay

$220 for a case of paint... Although they did rip you off very badly.

That isn't the field ripping you off... There is another company that handles the sales of those tickets and your field is just one of the fields that is contracted to use the tickets... I bought some of those tickets too for $5 each thinking it would get me in for free, just to find out that it would get me in for free, but I had to buy paint too.... Basically, I wasn't smart and didn't read the fine print.

ALWAYS READ THE FINE PRINT!
