Can anyone confirm if there is a limit to the number of prizes redeemed? Should you just get 1500 miles every 170 points, or is there a cap (1, 100?), and you should collect for 25k or 50k? Thanks!
To those redeeming many codes...the T&Cs say that you should hold onto the original media, as Coke could require that you prove you have the object (and didn't guess, steal, pull, etc). I'd keep the caps until a good period of time after the promotion ends (or at least until after the milage posts).
And good catch on the double points period! Saving up those 10 point media (12 pack), for entry during the double point period.

I am not yet seeing these specially marked bottles in eastern North Carolina. Someone on another board posted that this promo did not include all states.
Does anyone know of any geographical restricitions?

I see stores in both DC and New York that don't yet have them because they haven't gotten rid of old bottles, and it's only recently that I've started to see the codes appear on bottles like Diet Coke with Lime. So be patient.

Has anyone figured out to register if one is stuck with a coal-fired (28K) modem. The FAQ's say it will work with a 56k dialup. But the best I have been able to squeeze out of either home or work is 28K. So I haven't been able to register.
The problem comes in the second page where you have to copy the "security Key" which does not show up on my page!!!!! ARGGH. Guess I will have to go somewhere with a faster connection. (Oh How I hate the Library)
Hopefully once I get registered, I can then enter the codes from the Home computer.

If only they had this program out here...considering my usual 2-3 liters/day, I'd be Platinum Diamond Elite Coke Master in no time.

Good Morning.
I've been censored.
The moderator here (just doing his/her job) has deleted my post. I do not have enough membership time here at FT to post on Coupon Connection. But, I have something to offer related to the discussion on this thread, ie, caps with unredeemed codes. I will not be using them. By the time I have the time to have a legal post, the caps may not be helpful to anyone; that will be sometime in May. If one can only redeem 10 caps daily, well, you understand, right?
If curious, send me a PM.
Just doing some quick math this morning. 30 caps at regular redemption equals 90 pts toward something. It will be nice to have double redemption when it's announced.
Thanks. This may get me censored again.
(If there is anyone out there who would risk trusting me enough to post on CC, please let me know. )

Anybody see any 2 liters with the promo yet?? Target currently has a coupon on their website under grocery coupons good for $1 off a 2 liter of Diet Coke. I think their everyday price for a 2 liter is around $1.39, so this would bring a 2 liter down to 39 cents or less if you catch them on sale. The coupon is for a Supertarget, but I believe all Targets take them. The coupon states one offer per coupon, not one per guest, so you could print many of these if you can find the promo bottles. The coupon is good until 4/29/06.

Looks like I'll be participating in this promotion, so I'll post how long it takes between redemtion of points and posting of miles. I heard same-day, but I'd like to see that for myself.
