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

Thought I found a way to convert the Target giftcards to cash when I go to California next weekend, since I knew you can request cash if the balance is below $10 for the last 20 years, but then I found this:
To be exempt, these gift certificates or gift cards must contain an expiration date, if any, in capital letters in at least 10-point type on the front of the card and must be either:
Distributed by the issuer to a consumer without charge under an awards, loyalty or promotional program; (or some things which don't apply here).
Had to do the buy-something-then-return dance to consolidate a bunch of those pesky pieces of paper. Then I was told I had to wait a day to return the item. Meanwhile, hubby is wandering around the other side of the store pretending he doesn't know me.
Anyone know if I can return to a different store, or does it have to go back to where I made the purchase?

You can return to any store.

What kind of BS is that. I bought item and walked right from self-checkout to customer service. In fact I asked if I could do that when I couldn't put the paper gift cards directly on a plastic card, and they said sure.

"Most unopened items in new condition and returned within 90 days will receive a refund or exchange."

I think I'm just spoiled with Amazon. Driving to the mall where the Target stores are located is aggravating in and of itself. I remember Target from years ago was a much cooler store. They carried better brands. I was in the Sporting good section and it was pretty much filled with junk.
Ya know, Target has the Shipt delivery service. And they've long had shipping since they started selling online in the 90s.

A compare & contrast with Amazon vs. Target/Shipt would be cool.

I have Amazon Prime for 2 day free shipping on most items, but the biggest thing that would keep me from buying from Target even if they had free shipping on everything is that they have nowhere near the variety items for sale that Amazon has. I can go on Amazon and buy a complete exhaust system and Target has one brand of wiper blades.

Supposed to be at grocery store near me. If I can buy a single bottle I'll give them a try. Hopefully, they are better than the four Diet Coke flavors.

Not myself personally, but they are selling them around here. From what I've heard, they're interesting, and I do want to give them a shot eventually.

Same day return is only available at the store u purchase the item. Starting the next day, u can return to any store.
May I ask why u have to do the buy-return thing?
For egc, if u have smart phone, add them to the target app, go to customer service, let them scan from ur phone and cash out. I have done this at more than 10 different Target in Bay Area and never a problem. U don't really need a physical card.

Yup any Target gift card under $10, meaning up to & including $9.99, can be cashed out @ any CA Target due to the state gift card law. They actually process it as a return. I have done it many times over the years since the law went into effect years ago.

So, I haven't been on in a few days but just read through the thread to see what I missed. Has anyone received notification of the free cokes/big gulps from the sweet sixteen win in the bracket game? Haven't seen anything in my rewards or email.
