Nestle is supposed to be one of the major players in water hoarding as well..... They are apparently collecting, and bottling, as much water as possible so that when the # hits the fan, they can charge us an arm and a leg for clean drinking water.....

OK, solid theory except for one little detail. Unless you are required to in order to collect a prize, NOBODY KEEPS THEIR CHOCOLATE BAR WRAPPER.
So what do you think they plan on tracking? Garbage bins and the sides of highways across America?
The conspiracy is Nestle wants people to want to win money and buy chocolate in pursuit.

Wow, after reading all the posts, I am aghast at the apathy. You have all been conditioned .......very well....and all it took was chocolate for crying out loud!!!!! Everyone should be appalled at this. Has anyone questioned WHY they are doing this. Do you really think they just want to give you their dimes? And the Bilderberg connection you all wrote off.....???????? WTH????
Like taking candy from a baby......
Congratulations, all the apathetics just passed the "test"...and there are soooooo many of them.
To the OP, you did just fine. SnF for your post. A big fat F for those who don't recognize what is going on.edit on 21-9-2012 by Gridrebel because: (no reason given)

How big does the GPS system have to be to be able to be detected from hundreds of miles away? How could that fit in a wrapper? It can't just be an RFID chip can it? Something seems fishy here.

Um.............No.
I almost never buy candy and contest or not I am not saving wrappers.
So what is the problem?
How am I mindlessly conditioned here?
Doesn't need the power to transmit it's signal "hundreds" of miles, simply needs to transmit to the closest tower and allow the network to transmit the data back to their servers.

By closest tower, I'm guessing you mean "cell tower". That would require some bulk and battery power to transmit on a cellular network.
I can't see how this could fit in a candy bar.
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is the use of a wireless non-contact system that uses radio-frequency electromagnetic fields to transfer data from a tag attached to an object, for the purposes of automatic identification and tracking. Some tags require no battery and are powered by the electromagnetic fields used to read them. Others use a local power source and emit radio waves (electromagnetic radiation at radio frequencies). The tag contains electronically stored information which can be read from up to several meters (yards) away. Unlike a bar code, the tag does not need to be within line of sight of the reader and may be embedded in the tracked object.
RFID tags are used in many industries. An RFID tag attached to an automobile during production can be used to track its progress through the assembly line. Pharmaceuticals can be tracked through warehouses. Livestock and pets may have tags injected, allowing positive identification of the animal.
Since RFID tags can be attached to clothing, possessions, or even implanted within people, the possibility of reading personally-linked information without consent has raised privacy concerns.
Ummm no I don't mean "cell" tower...I don't believe you are familiar as to how RFIDs work, here's a quick explanation from wikipedia;
" A Nestle spokesman added that "inside their wrappers, the GPS-enabled bars looked just like normal chocolate bars."
