2 quick things...just logged in to add some codes and was given the 'opportunity' to take a 19-page survey (it was fairly quick). I selected Travel as my preferred reward category and noticed that whenever I ticked 'extremely dissatisfied', a box popped up asking me to comment further. I even got a box asking what types of travel rewards I'd like to see in the future. Very cool--not sure if the survey opp is just for today or random.

Second--I posted this question a while back, but haven't received a response...I have a number of caps from Coke's guarana drink in Brazil. When I try to enter them, they say 'invalid'. Has anyone had a similar experience and is it worth giving Coke a call to see if they'll honor? In Brazil there are codes imprinted on the can pull-tabs...I didn't notice this until the last day of my trip, otherwise, there would have been many more.

I got that survey too a little over a week ago. I also chose travel and selected "extremely dissatisfied" many times. I don't know if they will really read these or not, but at least we've had our say. I actually thought that maybe enough of us had filled this out at that time that it prompted the reload of the Delta awards, brief though that may have been. You never know - I'm the eternal optimist!

Christmas Coca-Cola cheer & Thanx

over the last month I cashed out almost 1500 coke points,
all in the form of small Coke Teddy Bears

I then gave them to friends with the instructions to give them to some underprivileged kids to put a smile on their face
(except for my next door neighbors' 20 month old - who is anything but underprivileged)

special thanks to those who also helped me out
DBMaury, Brendan, Sy7, Dream7
(i apologize if i forgot anybody)

and i now have 1 point left in my coke rewards account
and wont be buying any more coke products unless there is a super sale

Just got back from the Stop & Shop and using a self service check out and found a 24 point code certificate before I started check out in the coupon printer. How do these get printed out? I did buy some coke products but no coupon. Any body have any ideas on how these are generated?

They're generated by things you buy, but not necessarily if you buy coke products.

Text REWARD to 2653 for a code to redeem for a free 20 oz. Coke. The code it sends is a one-time use code.

It also appears to count as one of your 10 codes for the day unlike the older codes that you could send in in addition to your 10 for the day.

Sorry! I didn't know it would count as one of the 10.

do you all drink that much coke? I can hardly keep any since we don't drink soda in our house, so we collect them from friends and the in-laws.

I average close to six per day (caps mostly but also 12 pack box tops), not by drinking but by finding them

Clearly, the codes from other continents will not work in the US promo.
I have picked up a few caps from South American coke products in the Miami airport and tried to enter them with no joy. Curiously, there was not a URL on them that I could check out.
Coke in Brasil has had a couple of promos using codes, such as one with Avon that ended in May 2007.

Sorry that's not a perfect answer. Perfection would be a link-certain to the promo in which those codes would work.
FWIW, here is the website for the guarana product.

Flowers.com

Is the Delta mileage bonus for orders with 1800 Flowers.com down to only 500 miles plus 10 miles per dollar spent, or are there better promotion codes that are still valid thru Dec. 31, 2007?

I gotta ask but where you do find them with such frequency?
