I get tons of magazines every month for free, and I just enter all my 12 packs once or twice a month. Especially with an android app, it's not hard at all. It takes maybe 5 minutes to enter 12 codes for 120 points, and a year of Entertainment Weekly is about 250 points or so. I mean, come on, it's not like coke is gonna give out free cars! I just appreciate the fact that they throw me some magazines to read to thank me for my loyalty. Never had a problem like you guys are claiming. You guys are crazy.

Did Coke offer a bogus Walmart card in exchange for rewards points? I’m not sure what you are referring to here, Pamela. Did Coke offer a bogus Walmart card in exchange for rewards points?

It's really like kicking an addiction. (Um, not that I would <em>truly</em> know what that's like.) Let me tell you — it’s a relief not feeling the need to collect those points anymore, jeff.

I managed to amass 4000 points in 5 years time. My landlord would drink a 12 pack a day, and I would pull the box out of the trash and plug the code into the website. (Most of the points were from her, I'm sure). The trouble now is, the largest rewards you can get are 2000 points, and most of them are nothing I'm interested in. Hope my ab roller is not a pos.

So... What <em>does</em> 10,000 points get you nowadays? Hopefully you can get a nice Coke t-shirt and maybe have enough points left over to grab a ball cap too! ;-) That’s pretty awesome!
