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

Quote from McReggie :
I don't know if they have some inside information or are just guessing, and since it is ESPN, it is likely the latter, but they have some mock NCAA brackets that shows the South playing West and East playing Midwest. CBS Sports also has it that way, but ncaa.com just has a blank one. Take that for what its worth to decide if you are guaranteed a Visa card. But I guess we'll know for sure in about 10 hours.
I got up at midnight like you suggested to be sure I could get seeds before the AMOE was available....well Coke didn't have it available yet so I managed to get more seeds before the mass population started using the AMOE ! I'm pretty well fixed for seeds in all of my brackets but there are one or two I want to finish. Thanks McReggie for your advice !

Can you get a duplicate seed? I thought you got a no team or what-ever message if you could not fill in a slot?

I got a west 4 seed so now I have all the teams in the West, East and South. Still looking for a 2 & 3 seed in Midwest.
I know it is possible because it happened to me on one of my accounts. For me the duplicate will be worthless.

The rules [coca-cola.com] say, "Limit: up to one (1) of each Game Piece/team per person." But when I played today, I received confirmation of a Midwest 4 seed, which I already had.

I checked my bracket [coca-cola.com] and found I now have the East 4 seed, which I did not have previously, so the confirmation was not correct.


Edit to correct myself: my recordkeeping must have been in error. I reviewed my win confirmation e-mails and found that I had previously won an East 4 but not a Midwest 4, so today's draw was not a duplicate as I had thought.

Based on my experience X 4 this past week or so, yes you can. It's happened twice in the West (both #1 seeds) and twice in the South (#3 and #1 seed). I've never seen the sorry/no team message.

I maybe wrong on this but if one has 3 full brackets. Then its the final 4.
Couple of people posted how it works to get the visa several days ago

Yeah. I know. But most do not have 2 full brackets separate sides if they are
just starting. Ozzie is done. Unless for the sports aspect or the tickets/whatever.

Just waking early tomorrow for one more account & hopefully done.

It's Selection Sunday! (But the show is on TBS! Get it back to broadcast TV!)

I hope your Coke bracket is filling out. I'm 13 out of 16

Yeah, the whole contest was down for awhile right after midnight. Neither the AMOE or Sip n Scan worked. You could use the Sip n Scan and get he entries, but you couldn't use them to get a team. I think it was around 1:45 when it finally worked. I thought it might have had to do with Daylight Saving Time, but since it started at 1:45 and not 2:00, I think it was just a random glitch. I don't know if that helped us get teams before the AMOE crowd joined, but I'll take it. A little frustration in exchange for still getting teams is fine with me. I'll gladly take that a few more times.

Hell..the way things are going with sports on TV, the Finals will be more likely to move to cable than getting the selection show back on network TV.
