It was BEST when you entered caps for points and were Guaranteed to redeem for the reward you wanted
Boy, I wish they would bring back those days . . . .

I have a whole large box of caps & box codes, probably around 2000 codes.
I have done the donation stuff some, I keep waiting for them to drop codes on products before I give up keeping them. If they ever do straight to the recycle center they go.

I took pics of codes I had, recycled the cardboard, and plastic covers, but had to trash the caps themselves, ~ 3 years ago: all recyclers I called at the time wouldn't take them either due their type of plastic, or due the gasket/lining on the inside. Perhaps recycling technology has improved since.
BTW once you have a setup/flow going, you can take a pic of a cap in 2-3 seconds; you could process all yours in well under 2 hours.
That said, I don't mind the new Coke system for contests. Like anything else, it has evolved. I don't understand why they are still printing the codes on 12-packs and bottle caps. It would be nice if codes were ever used for something again other than donations but I'm not counting on that.
You know when companies ask if you want to round up at the register? THAT'S the real shady business. They take YOUR money and claim it as their own charitable donation.

Addendum: here's an article addressing exactly this issue, the belief that stores inviting customers to round up their tab are claiming it to the store's tax benefit (TLDR, apparently that belief is patently incorrect). If there's more to the story, and you do know for a fact that such tax-claiming is standard practice, do tell. https://www.taxpolicyce
I haven't looked into this, and am curious : are you sure those companies get a tax benefit for the entirety of the money thus collected? I had assumed only for part of it, the part that goes toward implementing-maintaining-accounting for the rounding-up (perhaps padded a bit).

Like, if "rounding up" is the big fuzzy feel-good idea, why doesn't Walmart (or whoever) just take the extra change from every receipt and donate THAT to charity, instead of asking YOU to do it? I'm all about donating, I just don't think that's a great way to do it.
High net worth individuals, and certainly corporations, use other mechanisms of gicing: walmart's big fuzzy feel good idea for itself, for instance, is community-based giving, and theitr 2022 charitable donation to it was ~ $1.5 billion.
If it makes any of us feel better we could advise them to claim they came up with that number by rounding up cents on their sales registers :-D
Except, a statista blurb says "In fiscal year 2022, there were approximately 230 million customer visits each week to Walmart stores throughout the world". As a napkin calculation that makes 11.9 billion customer visits for the year; if we assume _all_ of them bought something, and _all_ of them contributed the max rounding amount, 9c, i.e. rounding up to the next multiple of 10c, that still comes out to only $1.1 billion
(If I'm missing something obvious I must be just extra-slow today, sorry :} )
sidenote: here's a decent comparision between a million and a billion: a million seconds after conception (that's just conception, not even birth) you're still just a tiny cluster of cells ~ 10 days old; a billion seconds after conception, you're ~ 32 _years_ old :-)
Email says this: "To redeem your Target eGiftCard at Target.com:
1. Enter your Target eGiftCard number and access number when checking out
2. Your eGiftCard will be automatically applied."
So after entering one does checkout give place to add another?

As far as I know Target requires you to create an account to be able to check out online (i.e. they don't do "guest checkout"). Once you create your account you can add multiple gift cards to it (there's a "gift cards" option in the sign-in menu), then use that gift card balance to pay for your chekout.
As a heads up, the first gift card you add to your account becomes the "primary" card. Additional cards can be added as independent cards (but you probably wouldn't want to), or can be added so that they add to the value of the primary card (which is what you'd want). If you mistakenly add several cards as independent cards, it's still possible to "combine" them after the fact, so don't be too worried about having at it
However messages can be moved between Inbox and custom folders. See attached pic for steps:
- let's say we've already created a custom folder called "foo", and we want to move messages from Inbox to foo
- go Inbox; use checkboxes at right to select messages to move (you can also select all messages by clicking the checkbox above all the messages, but that's just a nicety)
- click the dropdown above the messages (see pic), and select "Move to folder"
- in the popup that appears, select the folder to move to, then click Move Items
