Here's a random story we first spotted on Reddit! In Brazil, chewing gum maker Trident has partnered with Microsoft to offer Xbox Game Pass to those who purchase Trident X Fresh Loot gum.
You can see the snazzy packaging above, which comes with seven days of free Xbox Game Pass with no strings attached, and even better - it's the Ultimate version, which includes Xbox Gold membership as well.
But in case you're wondering - no, you can't just keep buying gum to increase your subscription! The offer is limited to two promotional codes per-account, meaning players are forced to top up their accounts before long.
Still, it's interesting to see, and wouldn't be surprised to see this sort of thing make its way to the rest of the world to coincide with the launch of the Xbox Series X.
What do you make of this story? Do you live in Brazil and have taken advantage of this offer? Let us know below.

That's a load of codes ending up on ebay then
Good idea to give it a try and get you started, but isn't the Xbox One install base in Brazil very low.... Console's in Brazil cost a fortune comparative to wages.... I really can't see this being something the average Brazilian would care for...
In France, we got a similar offer a few months ago with the cereals, but for us it was the GP, not the GPU.
4 codes per account.
@BANJO I don't know, a subscription service where you get free games in a country where games are very expensive is kinda something that would be attractive to people.
It could be pointed out that the install base is low so this isn't costing them as much as it would if they did it in, say, Germany
