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

Or perhaps they just pick them randomly. By limiting it to invitation only, they put an upper limit on cost and it doesn't spiral out of control like the recent Target Sip & Scan gift card fiasco.

Well Coke took their sweet time about getting my Sprite/Popeye codes to me. I received 15 of 19 codes requested.
Congrats - I guess that means there's hope? I only requested 5, but it's been probably about 3 weeks now since I sent them in. How long ago did you send yours?

With 100,000 chances for seeds, (25K per region), that's a lot of chances.
There are actually 25,000 of each seed, so that's a total of 400,000 chances (four seeds per region, four regions).

If distributed evenly over the Bracket IWG period, that's roughly one every five seconds.

Is it safe to assume that each account will only win, at most, one of each level of prize? For example, if I get all 16 seeds then I'd have 4 teams winning at the elite 8. I wouldn't win 4 $10 visa gift cards would I?

Yes, the rules state "Limit: One (1) of each level of gift or prize per person. "

The only reason the seeds are so easy to win now is because not many people are entering this sweeps. The bigger blogs haven't bothered to post this one so not many outsiders know about it. I think there is going to be an AMOE with a link to enter that is going to open soon. We will see how much harder it gets to win once that opens up. We might also get lucky and not have any of the blogs post this sweeps before the entry period expires. More for us Big Grin Seems like everyone here has gotten a fair share of the seeds so I am sure most everyone will win one of each of the prize brackets.

Yes, thirteen seeds guarantees you a team in the Final Four, but you need a team to win a Final Four game for you to win the $10 Visa card, so you'll need fifteen seeds to guarantee it.

ETA, well, that's not entirely sound logic, either. You need all four seeds in three regions to ensure you have a Final Four winner. If you have fifteen seeds, then you're guaranteed to have three complete regions, although you could accomplish it with as few as twelve if you've got a complete void in one region.

Agreed, and there will be an online AMOE that opens on March 11 which will let the unwashed masses in. We will have had 13 opportunities before then to collect seeds.

I missed a day but haven't drawn a duplicate yet, so I've got nine seeds in each account. Two accounts each have an entire region covered, so that's two guaranteed Elite Eight winners. Two other accounts have fifteen of the seeds covered between them, which guarantees at least one of them will have a Final Four winner.

not if you want the final 4 gift ($10 visa). you'll need complete brackets for three regions since we don't how they are going to match up the regions.

Shh!

Secret [eprize.com]

Reveal to no one who cannot demonstrate the Secret Handshake!

This one is a little bizarre in that you have to be standing in a Whole Foods Market Using Your Text Capable Cellular Phone with Location-Based Services enabled. I tried to enter but they detected that I was not standing in a Whole Foods Market and rejected my entry.

So confusing. So if someone started today, there is definately a guarantee they will NOT win the 10.00 because they will NOT be able to fill all the slots before it's over?
