I'm guilty of changing my buying habits. I've gone from Gatorade to Powerade (usually cheaper anyway) and from fountain drinks/cans at the gas station to 20 ounce bottles.

I'm a sucker for any rewards program.

I saw that the $25 Nike Gift Card for 1,000 Points is back. I think it's a decent redemption, especially these days.

I changed from buying my Diet Coke in the 12 pack cans (which gets colder) for the 6 24 oz bottles, because it is 18 points vs 10.

Like you, at 78 cents per 32 oz bottle, I buy a ton of powerade and coke gets my business but I haven't boughten a 12 pack, 20 pack or case in ages as the coke products imho were so over priced. However now W-M has them for $5 per 24 pack and i've started buying the 24 packs again.

I won an instant win $25 Publix gift card a few weeks ago. (Publix is a grocery store in a few southeastern states. Their hourly instant win promo has ended.) Arrived by FedEx a few days ago.

I won with a free entry via the alternate method of entry. :D

2000 Priority Club rewards are back
 

Title says it all....

whats the over/under in days on *out of stock*

rats....still tells me i have redeemed this already and can't get it again....

When was your most recent 2000-pt redemption on this account?

Only ONE per lifetime
 

READ THE FINE PRINT. Coke is screwing around as usual.

No matter 500 points or 2,000 -- they restrict it to ONE per account per lifetime.

Of course, as we all know from past experiences with MCR, there are those who know how to "game the system" and cheat and thast's WHY MCR dumped all the good rewards in favor of lowcost JUNK for the most part. Nonetheless, I can't kick too much if somebody finds an angle to "game" them.

Although I didn't cheat, I managed to get my share of goodies when the getting of priority points was unrestricted:
4-$100 Target cards; 2-$100- Red Lobster Cards; 2-$100 Applebee Cards; 2-$100 Olive Garden Cards;
2-$200 and 2-$250 Priority Club-Amex Any Hotel Anywhere Prepaid Lodging cards, to name some of the better goodies I got from the Priority Points because of the MCR rewards program, not counting about 100,000+ Skymile Bonus points when they were openly available and unrestricted as a MCR reward in increments.

After reading your post, I was surprised not to see your name listed with Pudding Guy, MrPickles, and the other legends of Flyertalk who are presenting at the Chicago Seminar this coming October. Perhaps the promoters were worried that they would not be able to control the crowds who would want to hear you go on and on about all of the rewards you've earned from MCR.

Please keep us posted if you are added to the program!

my guess is this is another FT'er using an alternate handle; this isn't a 5th post type of post.. just a guess but I'm still willing to go out on a limb and call this guy out

Bad news! 2000 PC's are GONE already. I just got some codes a few hours ago & now finished entering this week's quota to reach 630. Not even mentioned as OOS--just deleted!
Oh well, I can hope that they will be replenished next month.

My helpful hint for the day: Due to a promo where Live Nation is selling concert tickets for $10 each (but only thru Jun 30) there is an uncommonly huge current demand for MCR $10 Live Nation codes (which cost only 100 MCR each), this guy on eBay sold 11 of them the other day for $7.25 each, even after eBay and PayPal fees they probably cleared over $6 for each Live Nation code.

Keep in mind that the demand for Live Nation codes is more than likely a temporary phenomenon as the $10 concert ticket promo is scheduled to end on Jun 30. Good luck!

Entering my codes today, I saw two new offers.
one that you can get points from Wendy's cups and the other for 4 Southwest credits for new accounts. To me the Wendy's one is more exciting, but here is the link for people who want free SW credits.

Also thanks thanks to yanxfann, I cashed out for 2 of the live nation codes and ordered free Kiss tickets for a friend's birthday. (have to make individual orders for each ticket) I had no idea the $10 promo existed, but one less present to buy :)
