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

How does that work? I've never traded or sold gift cards online. Since it's probably too off topic, a PM would be appreciated. Thank you!

On my last account, I finally had success with the Popeye's/Sprite promo.

The NCAA games start tonight - CBS, game time 7:07 EDT, Nevada vs Loyola-Chicago. How many of y'all had those 2 teams in your Sweet 16 brackets? Not me!!

ugh ohh that's bad news for us, I wonder can the register really tell the difference between a paper gift card and a physical gift card? maybe its one gift card per order whether its a paper or physical gift card
Quote from noisycricket :
Seconding- this is really bad news. I had no idea that Target cards could be used at the pharmacy. I have been able to use mine at the Pizza Hut inside the store. What an awful update to their policy- isn't this one of a few changes they've made in the past months? Ugh. At this point if we want to put more than $5 on a card we'll probably being reduced to purchasing an item less than $20 online (Target.com has a 4 card limit) and then exchanging it.

I hope members here who want to combine cards via self check-out report their results. Maybe it's not every store?

As for the brackets, I only have 1 full out of my accounts. Got mostly Syracuse and Clemson last night playing for the final time, so I guess I'm rooting for them.
Quote from sproutrocksit :
On Tuesday, I converted 15 $5 paper gift cards ($75 total) onto a plastic card- I'd been saving them up for several months. Worked like a dream at the self checkout. I'm really glad I went when I did if they're changing things...
Again, the manager had no idea. He was on the phone for me for almost an hour trying to figure this out. On Monday I had no problems at all. Same store, same gift card, same self check out

My story...
On Monday I went to Target and used the self checkout to make a few of my $5.00's into $25.00's.
No problem at all.
Today I went to do a couple more. It would not work at all.
Manager came over and tried. Would not work.
Went to buy a $50.00 item in the store instead.
Would only take off ONE $5.00 email gift card.
Manager called someone.
After waiting and trying to clear things up...there is what they said.
1. Only one paper $5.00 will work from now on in store. Cannot buy any gift cards at all.
2. As of now you can still use max of four online.
3. If you return the item you will receive a BLACK merchandise gift card that can only be used for merchandise and cannot be used at the Pharmacy or Starbucks.
Very unhappy camper right now.

Quote from callmemaybe :
That's not good - I have over 10 $5 paper gift Cards. I am going to Target tomorrow and try.
Quote from boagman :
I'm sure it's very much YMMV on this. I have 5 to use...we'll see what happens when I try, but I don't plan on using them for a good while, as I just used the last of the ones I had before.
I just went to the website for Target's terms and conditions for their e-gift cards and it doesn't say that. It even says that you can buy gift cards with credit cards, which most places will not allow.
"10. Target eGiftCard Customer Service If you need assistance with any aspect of your purchase, ownership, or use of your eGiftCard, please contact Customer Support or call 1-800-544-2943. Please refer to your order number or email address.
Payment Methods
11. Target eGiftCards may be paid for with a valid VISA, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express card."

https://target.cashstar.com/about...onditions/

I think I will try to do it again this weekend and see if they still let me. I will have the terms and conditions bookmarked so that if they refuse then I can show them their own policy.

Edit: Someone just pointed out that it does say that you cannot use to buy giftcards on the bottom of the Cashstar redemption page "Redeemable for merchandise or services (other than gift cards and prepaid cards) at Target stores in the U.S. or Target.com, and cannot be redeemed for cash or credit except where required by law."

That flies in the face of their policy though. E gift card Customer Support number is 1-800-544-2943 if anyone wants to call and let us all know what they say.

Probably strayed too far from topic. Check into the Coke Rewards chat thread for further discussion.

On a bracket that you filled in? That's what I meant (not the Coke one) although I didn't clearly state it. It's a good game thus far.

My, my, my, you must learn how to spell! It's D-O-O-K!! Don't feel too bad, though, I've been trying to teach my sister, niece, cousins and uncle, all Dook grads, the correct spelling for many, many years.

When I logged into my Coke account, I had a sweeps entry (the one we received each time trying to get a seed) mysteriously appear in my rewards box. It wasn't there Tuesday and I didn't have time to play yesterday. Strange!

Today I had trouble buying a gift card with my e-gift cards. Wanted to buy an Ebay gift card that I just did last Sunday. Wouldn't let me buy the Ebay gift card, or put mine on a plastic card. People at customer service let me buy something with my gift cards and then return it. They were able to refund the total onto one Target gift card, but still wouldn't let me buy the Ebay gift card with the Target gift card.
