We don’t drink much soda. We don’t EVER buy soda, but we have an impressive collection of Coke Rewards. For those that aren’t aware, Coke Rewards are earned by inputing codes from underneath the bottle caps of any Coke product into an online account. These points can then be redeemed for prizes. We mainly use them to get free movies at Blockbuster… I don’t think we’ve paid for a video rental in years.
How do we have these points then if we don’t actually buy or drink soda? We keep our ears and eyes open. Most people don’t want to take the time to input the codes online, so if we know people that drink Coke products we just ask for their bottle caps. We also keep a lookout for litter… recycle the bottle and keep the cap, helps us, helps the earth… nice.

We’ve been doing the same thing. My mother-in-law collects cans and bottles on her early morning walk. (there is a 5-cent bottle refund in MA) and she puts aside the caps for us. They do add up quickly!
Somehow i missed the point. Probably lost in translation
Anyway … nice blog to visit.
cheers, Madam.
I SEE THE GUYS WHO COLLECT BOTTLES AND CANS OFFER THEM A FEW BUCKS AND GET ALL THE TOPS I NEED
