Is the Coke Rewards Program worth it?

[ShoppingCartDiva]

I drink 98% Coke products, all 12-packs. I drink 2-5 12-packs a week. (I try to quit. I fail.) I drink Diet Sprite and Peach Citrus Fresca (yum).

Does it even work with the 12-packs? I just signed up with it for the MyPoints (whee), and haven't much poked around yet. It seems like a PITA, but hey if it's worth it I'll start digging my 12-pack boxes out of the trash. :D

[derketchup]

If I recall correctly, 100 points gets you a coupon for a free 12-pack. You can only get one, but it's at least worth it to do it that far.

[orchidofpurple]

We drink Coke products exclusively so for me anything I get is just an extra. I usually cash out for the $25.00 Simon giftcards.

[hmmm]

12-packs usually have a code on the inside of the tear-off end of the package. The 12 pack codes are worth 10 points, so if you're drinking 2 to 5 a week, you'll have a hundred points in 5 to 2 weeks.

There's a lot of magazine subscriptions (cosmo, marie claire, redbook, etc) in the 100-200 point range. I'd say it's definitely worth it to do coke rewards.

[sh0ppette]

It's worth it, so far I've gotten 2) 1 year free Blockbuster movie rentals, thats 2 every week and American Idol All Star DVD Challenge Game, currently have 2500 points, wanted another free year of Blockbuster movies, but they are currently out of stock.

How many points are the lids from the 24 oz plastic bottles worth?

[jenjacobs]

Sometimes the prizes on there suck - you may have to wait around for a good one to pop back up. Last night I cashed in for a $75 Blockbuster GC for 750 points. Most GC are 625 points for only $25 so I thought that was a decent deal.

How many points are the lids from the 24 oz plastic bottles worth?
i think 3...

[pinky8020]

The 24oz lids and the 2ltr lids are generally worth 3 points each. And I agree with jenjacobs sometimes you have to wait for the good prizes but the gift cards are worth it in my opinion. Especially since I would be drinking the coke anyway.

[gettinrevvin2007]

I think it is definitely worth it, if you are a die-hard Coke drinker. It is hard to find Q's for it here. I also don't think I've seen a MIR for it either. At least not in our area. So anywhere I can recoup some of our $$$ spent on it, is a good deal.
I've gotten redeemed points for a Free 12-pack Q so far. I'm saving for a gift card deal now.

[DianeScraps]

I also think it is worth it, I have gotten Game Tap subscription, Kodak Custom Photo Calendar, Free coke, Ringtones, blockbuster gift card, movie tickets.

[derketchup]

If you decide not to do the coke rewards, imo you should save the rewards and trade them for coupons! I am always trading coupons for coke codes -- I want that roomba!

[gettinrevvin2007]

Coke has the Roomba as a reward? OMG! I never noticed! Ok. Change in plans. I now have a new goal.

[serenity72]

any other ways to find coke points besides actual packs of coke? TY

Well, they have them on powerade, dasani and some other stuff. Go to the site and see which ones.

[Domestic Gal]

I get anywhere from 10-25 coke caps a day. I work in a school cafeteria and we sell coke products. I have the janitors keep them for me when the kids throw there bottles away. ( They keep the bottle for recycling so it is easy to get the lids.)
So if you have kids that are able to get sodas during there lunch have them save them for you.
I also was staying after the football games and went through the trash cans and get caps that way.

[derketchup]

I get the 3 pt lids off bottles in the recycling bins at my college. Hehe.

[APACHETEAR]

Ha! I once saw a hundred or more coke caps at a pumpkin patch, and wanted so bad to just start collecting them!!! But, I was there for the kids, after all. Pepsi has a lock in on the majority of our vending machines around here. Anyway, I don't enter the coke codes anymore, because their site is so slow. Maybe because I have a mac. When I buy coke, I just save them until I have enough points to trade for something else. I collect the pampers points, but you have to pay for shipping

[ShoppingCartDiva]

Is Pampers still doing points? I thought they quit that.

[busyasabeecrg]

Help!! I just got back from helping a family, and someone moved my coke codes for trades. They are now all mixed up and I don't know which are 12 pack and which are more? I have some that have 3 codes horizontally printed, some that have 3 codes printed vertically, some with 2 codes printed vertically and then some from 24 or more cuz they are long, also some on plastic from 36 cans or so.

Does anyone know how I can find out which are which...or is there a phone# to ask them these kinds of questions?

TIA

you can get more than 1. i ordered 1 two weeks ago, and 6 more today. hoping to get them in time to do the cvs coke deal next week but probably won't til a few days after it's over :(

Anyway, I don't enter the coke codes anymore, because their site is so slow. Maybe because I have a mac.

Isn't it though? I have a pc and it just crawls. Pretty frustrating... but I guess I can deal since it's free stuff!!

[kadoatie]

There is a Yahoo widget out there that you can enter coke codes in and it is MUCH faster than the site. I only ever go on the site anymore to redeem points. Here's the link:
My Coke Rewards Widget - Yahoo! Widgets (http://widgets.yahoo.com/widgets/my-coke-rewards-widget)

Anyways... I love Coke Rewards. I drink a lot of diet coke too, but also collect caps and flaps from around my college campus. So far I've gotten 3 mag subscriptions, $75 in Simon gcs and $75 in Blockbuster cards.
So go for it!! At the very least, keep saving the codes and you can trade them here or sell them on eBay or something.

I was on their site yesterday and it said extended through March 2009. I think they had originally planned to end it in 2008.

I use the widget as well. It is a godsend!

[howesmath]

I collect the caps when I'm out getting coupons from the recycling bins. I had tons of them in our computer room that needed to be entered. I finally buckled down and started entering 10 codes a day. I got a subscription to Good Housekeeping about a year ago. In the last couple of weeks, I've gotten 4 gold passes to AMC Theaters. These are going to be used for teacher gifts.

[Wolfie1991]

I've "purchased" Kodak items and I will give them for Christmas presents. Definately wothwhile for me.

[xnyer8]

Yes- worth it for me.. I drink only Coke products. It can be a hassle sometiems because the site is slow or whatever but I have plenty of other areas in my life when stuff doesn't work smoothly so either I patientl wait or log off and go back later. ALthough I can't remember all my "rewards" I know I have received mag. sub., free coke products, Coke-brand t-shirts, ornaments, $25 Simon visa, Blockbuster....

So for me-yes definitely worth it...

[murmi]

Are any of the electronic rewards worth it? The wireless headphones are stupid with that bulky transmitter or whatever it is..just so you know

[dlcat]

I did not keep mine at first but later decided if I had them I might as well enter my codes. It has worked out, I ususally redeem my points for more 12 packs and try and
get them on a special promotion. So just enter them and you will find something that
you want to use them on.

[booklover]

I have used Coke points to get free movie tickets plus a coupon for a free fountain soda. Also got free 12 packs of soda and free Nabisco crackers. Recently go two fee Coca Coca Polar bears when I entered 6 Coke caps. I gave the bears to my nieces for Christmas. :)

[CW&M Mom]

I always keep mine and turn them in for the free powerades we go through those like crazy at my house...

my sister works for a insurance broker who stocks his office with coke products so I get lots of free coke codes that way.

[JulieDB]

I quit doing them. It is sooo hard for me to read those codes. I would have to put them in again and again until I got them right. And then there was really nothing I wanted. Yes, I got a few free single serve bottles. But we also finally just got some dumb hat that we donated because we didn't want it.
