So, a few years ago, I started entering the My Coke Rewards codes. I might drink one 20 oz bottle a day, but coworkers started leaving their caps on my desk, and slowly the points started adding up. I linked my MCR account to an email address I use for stuff like that, so that I don't get all the promotional emails in my regular email.... bad idea, because I just checked it and saw this:
Ed, only 3 days to save your points and get a rebate
Act before 3/9/2011 to save and earn points.
You have 2297 points | Enter some codes | Sign into your account

If you don't redeem points or enter a code your points will expire 3/9/2011.
I didn't realize that codes expires after 90 days of account inactivity...
Yep, I've lost them all :redface:... there goes my chance to get -
Ultra Spa Terry Velour Robe,
Avis One Day Mid-Size Vehicle Rental,
6-pc Stoneware Gourmet Mixing Bowl Set,
$50 Nike E-Gift Card Code (that would have been nice...)
4-in-1 Digital Binocular Camera.

    At least you freely admit it. That's a sign of acceptance and one of the 12 steps in the healing and recovery process.


    BTW, that stoneware mixing bowl set sounds enticing!

    That's a misnomer because it implies that the prizes actually have some value to begin with!

    I figured out that all those points probably represent at least $1100 of Coke products... I didn't drink all of them, but maybe I need to drop this habit, or at least find a more efficient way of purchasing it than via the vending machine at work, which is now up to $1.60 for a 20 oz...

    We use ours for magazine subscriptions.

    They don't have a great selection but the but Wired can be fun and there is no freaking way I would have paid to have "O" magazine sent to my house.
    Sounds good to me...
