Welcome to the official SD Coca-Cola.com/offers / Formerly My Coke Rewards Discussion Thread, proud to talk rewards since 2006! (We often discuss Coke promotions, (texting games, sweepstakes, etc.), which use Coke/MCR/codes or membership info to signup.)

Site: https://us.coca-cola.com/offers

A toast to My Coke Rewards, the Greatest Rewards Program in History! Applause

Coca-Cola.com Offers FAQ, (Formerly My Coke Rewards [MCR]):

- How may I contact them?
  • Phone: 800-520-2653 to reach an agent directly
  • email address: [email protected]
  • Ask Chip, your virtual agent, (formerly Allysa and Hank) on the site footer under the CONTACT US link.
- When does the promotion end?

There is no specific end date for the program.

- Inactivity

Each particular Coke promotion may have its own activity clause.

- Participating Products:
Barq's, Coke, Coke Zero, Dasani, Diet Coke, Fanta, Fresca, Mellow Yellow, Minute Maid, Powerade & Powerade Zero, Fuze, Pibb, Sprite, Seagram's, Tab.

- Values:
Point values per code are no more, All codes are equal value, but check promotion. Check packaging for a MyCokeRewards Label! Not all Coke packages have the MCR logo, (i.e. 6-pack w/glass bottles).
However, in Coke's Give Program to schools, codes still have different values to school donations, see wiki below!

- List of Accepted MCR Letter & Number Code Characters & Character Substition

There are 25 total characters, (letters or numbers only), that are accepted in 14-character MCR codes, (out of 36 available, A-Z, and 1-0). Five of the characters may also be input as substitutions for other similar-looking characters. Either upper- or lower-case letters are accepted. The available characters are:

Letters: B F H J K L M N P R T V W X (No C D E G* I O* Q S* U* Y Z)
Numbers: 4 5 6 7 9 0 (No 1 2 3 8*)

* The five accepted substitute characters for similar-looking characters:
  • B = 8
  • V = U
  • 5 = S
  • 6 = G
  • 0 = O (Zero, '0', is the officially accepted character according to MCR error messages; letter 'O' is the substitute.)

- Where do you find all the codes?
Here are a few ways...
- drink soda
- participate/lurk on this board
- ask friends/family/neighbors/co-workers to save
- dumpster diving
- jumping out of cars upon seeing flaps on the side of the road
- referring a friend on the site
- ask Maids to save for those who travel
- ask recycling centers to save
- purchase on eBay
- sporting events, zoos, parks, etc
- make trades
- become buddies with vending machine stockers
- become the vending machine stocker

If people are still able to do the target giftcard thing it may be because they've had an account a while. Seems it was pulled for anyone making a new account.

Good. If offers are only for established accounts it will put an end to the separate thread BS.

For any of you who have won airlines vouchers, do you get a confirmation Hello World received the signed release? Is there any kind of notification?

With the 3 day weekend that just past, I wonder if I made the 5 day cut off. I sent the forms 2 day priority but wondering if there was any issues.
my daughter did not get a confirmation that they received he release and it has been 2 weeks

Did you mean the $5 Amazon text sweeps(HOLIDAY & JOY)? I do not remember one for Target unless I missed it somehow.

Here is the rules to the Amazon IWG/Sweeps. It doesn't show the $1000 check winners in the winner lists so I'm not sure if those have been picked but the draw date was supposed to on or about Friday 1/12/18.

Holiday Punch Card and Sweepstakes - Aramark
https://us.coca-cola.com/legal/55869/

Coca-Cola Seasons Greetings Giveaway
https://us.coca-cola.com/legal/55873/

Also we had the Circle K IWG promo that ended 1/3/18:

The Circle K Holiday Instant Win
https://us.coca-cola.com/legal/55839/

Some of those prizes are going to be awarded as gift cards. I know we had a few winners here on SD(300 prizes). I had a family member that won the Camera prize awarded as $100GC but she hadn't gotten anything yet as of 2 days ago. After she won a few weeks later she emailed HelloWorld asking if they knew the sponsor of the gift card & if it would be sent via email/physical address but they said they had no info at that time.

As mdyoung posted all the promos stated 8-10 weeks. It's now week 7 and I do not expect them any sooner than week 10 or possibly later as well(in late March) like Football IWG prizes
Quote from mdyoung :
I'm sure it will be the usual beg Hell No World for your prize.
True. I won in a Bass Pro contest last year(won binoculars) and I didn't keep up with the SD thread comments waiting for them and everyone had received 3 weeks earlier but me. I happened to email them as the 2nd chance mail in prizes were being sent and without a reply my prize showed up a week later. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) I was lucky sending out prizes hadn't ended completely. Now I never hesitate to email them or inquire if the prize ship estimate has passed!

With a prize like this($5 Amazon) it probably had at least a couple hundred thousand or more Coke members redeem especially with a second thread about it, plus people were having trouble getting it to work entering weeks later, other site posting it and etc. Who knows how many they actually have to be able to fulfill, that's why I got my redemption done day one ASAP. Could be 300-400K redemption times two promos and only 100-200K actual $5 Amazon eGC to give out.

All those entries are going to take time to send and HW seems to like to take their time especially on smaller prizes.

Didn't she have some kind of tracking number? I had only 3 calendar days to get the paperwork in for the Disney trip I won, on a holiday weekend, and the delivery confirmation didn't show up online until 8 hours after it was delivered. i was just hoping the day I got the email didn't count as day 1. Apparently it didn't. On the advice of a few members here I also emailed a PDF of the forms, sent another email inquiring if they got the paperwork, and was assured they did. Now, 5 weeks later I was just contacted about making the airline reservations. And now I finally am sure this trip is going to happen. Unfortunately, its a trip for 4, and there are 11 of us. Well, its the extended family trip I wanted to do anyway,
Any suggestions as to when's the best time to go to Florida? I was thinking October, but I think that's still during hurricane season...LOL TIA

Yeah hopefully Coke finally caught onto these "new accounts". Maybe they implemented a hidden bronze, silver, gold status like they had on MCR at one time.nod

I know their trying to get new members to advertise/sell their products, no hate for that but the account spamming is killing it for legit members who use the products with stuff going oos and etc. Also wasn't there something mentioned about the magazine site not honoring Coke codes now, or was that BS?

I still think we're always going to see separate threads though.

Yeah, what happened to being an insider. Sweepstakes should be open to anyone, but offers like Target should be a reward for being around for a while.

I know those of us that won $2000 in the Coke Publix text contest received our notification in the afternoon(EST via text) on a Wednesday and it counted as a day(stated in the PDF as the day you receive notification), it had to be their by Sunday 5 days later. I sent an email inquiry the next day when the tracking showed delivered and they stated it had been received to "have patience"(okay....) Then I got a UPS notification weeks later for it but no reference in the shipment about the promo or email from HW, no signature required. I emailed the day of the notification asking what prize it was, it arrived before the reply, then the next week they reply asking me if the package was received and what promo it was for like they didn't know.(lol) I think someone was supposed to send an email and that it really should have needed direct signature required, there might have been some slacking on one of their team's part.

If the offer isn't there on new accounts they can make a 100 separate threads for all I care.

If you read some of the rules for some of the other contests it says that you need an account BEFORE the offer is made.

It's great their starting to do that. Applause Hopefully it will quit being "some" and changed to "all" promos.

But with so much new account making abuse over the years, especially around the Holidays, there's probably too much damage been done already to keep the smaller offers from being abused.

Summer is too hot. My family always went to FL for winter break and it was nice. We live in WA, so we aren't used to heat. And a little rain doesn't slow us down.
