Thanks for the heads up. Guess I'll use all those Coke Zero lids I have been saving for March Madness. Good thing the period will include two separate weeks.

Wednesday, March 11 through Friday, March 13 is not two separate weeks on my calendar.

I successfully load caps (actually the numbers saved) from Costa Rica and/or Nicaragua using a VPN -- even the free Firefox add-on (AnonomyX or something like that).

Don't really want to take time out from my vacation to enter in the codes. Or to carry those caps either.

Take your caps (or write the codes on paper), log in from your remote location. Back in the days this program actually yielded something good, I took caps with me, and entered them in the Admirals Club, using their PCs. Including NRT. LOL Honest! And yes, I washed my hands right after and cleaned the keyboard.

If anyone was there, you may have heard each cap hit the bucket like a marble. That was me. :D

How true. However, if you're looking at April, the 11th. is on Saturday and the 13th. is on Monday!

and me. I've taken my thousands of caps to London, Berlin, and Tokyo on various trips. I'm doing them on Skyclub Lounges and Skyteam Lounge, Air France Lounge, United Club, etc..... I'm now taking photos of cap and flaps more than before for a weight free, cleaner solution.

“Excuse me, sir — but your bag is grossly overweight.”

“But...but...I have my soft drink caps in it.”

“Sorry, sir — but you will have to lighten your luggage or pay an overweight fee.”

“But I get My Coke Rewards points with these caps, which weigh more than rocks! Please — have a heart!”

“Do you want to fly today?!?”

Which reminds me. Time to shutdown that MyPoints account too. Cashed in my $10 Starbucks card.

I just redeemed for a $20 B&N gift code, and I think I'm done with My Coke points as well. For me the new approach -- with different levels, social media interaction, etc. -- is very much violating the "keep it simple stupid" rule that I look for in any reward program. I supposed that there is a very smart group of millennial age hot shots in Coke's digital marketing group that came up with the new program so as to "engage" the customer (no shot intended; some of my favorite people are millennials). I just don't care to be "engaged" -- particularly for something as ultimately unimportant as buying a soft drinks.

When at the grocery store today, I noticed several 2L bottles of Coke that had yellow caps without any MCR markings.

It is Kosher Coke for Passover made with sugar and not High Fructose Corn Syrup. No MCR points.

Yep, and the annual complaints to facebook about buying a yellow cap bottle and not having a code on it. Only to be buried in the "complaint" posts by people "just discovering" the weekly limit is down to 75 points :rolleyes:

By excluding the KfP Coke from MCR, the Coca-Cola Co. is taking the risk of being accused of anti-Jewish discrimination!

there seems to be a glitch with the bonus points at the moment.

i got the bonus using green caps and minute maid, but the red, black and powerade caps didn't credit me any bonus points.
