@snowplower said in 2 Free AMC tickets for Cokerewards users YMMV Targeted:

This is somewhat of a consolation for those of us who lost a ton of points when cokerewards ended.

You sound as if you weren’t paying attention when the original MCR program ended. Nobody should have lost points; if by that you mean that you had a bunch of unredeemed points when the program ended. There was plenty of advance notice and opportunity to redeem points, and any unentered codes from caps and flaps still have potential use in the new Coke system.

Everyone here should make sure to follow the master Coke rewards thread: https://phatwalletforums.com/topic/645/coke-rewards-official-thread/44. There have been some good rewards lately if you were able to act upon them quickly, like $5 Amazon and Target GCs as well as contests to enter to potentially win prizes and movie tickets.

TCB has other payment methods besides Paypal. There is an incentive to get your cash back in the form of a gift card. At the moment, you can get up to a 10% bonus for cashing out with a retailer gift card.

@dionaea said in Free Blanket via TopCashback & Walmart:

This is a “new members only” deal, right?

Yes, that is important to note. Would help if people would put this in the subject line. (It’s not always the case, sometimes these free-after-cash-back items are valid for existing accounts.)

@gpinzone said in Two (2) free tickets to Six Flags until 12/31/17:

Redeemed.

Nice of you to give these away, but the Free Stuff forum is not for individual, limited giveaways. This belongs in https://phatwalletforums.com/category/26/coupon-trading

@tuskers said in Free Endangered Species Condoms Box:

A post should be rated based on the offer and content, not on how it is presented or exact words in the title

True. I rated the post based on the content.

Given the requirements, this isn’t a true freebie as based on the old FW-standard and thus the new PH-W standard. Based on that, this is posted in the wrong forum. It should be in Contests since there is a competition of sorts to get the item.

Whatever the case, experienced posters know that YMMV and things like that belong in the subject line. That, and also the correct forum to post in the first place.

crickets chirping

tap, tap… “Is this thing on?”

Okay, found more info on a thread at SD. Here’s more info that should have been included in this thread. (Copied directly from the SD thread.)

So i don’t know if it’s account specific or it an offer that is rolling out.
I know that I didnt’ have autopay turned on before and usually don’t use it. Has anyone else received this offer?

Dead. Sold out.

@ma-barker said in Free eggs up to $2 at Target using coupons.com app:

You can double dip and submit same receipt to Ibotta for an add’l 0.25 credit.

YMMV. No Ibotta offer for me on eggs. I do however have a whopping 15¢ for eggs with Checkout51.

I just submitted a receipt and got a reply that the limit has been reached, so offer is over.

@gpinzone said in Enter 15 Coke Sweepstakes in May, get $2 AMZ Gift Card plus any winnings (select accounts):

Anyone try this yet? How long does it take to get the $2 code?

Does the offer show in your account? If so, why not read the terms & conditions which explains how it works.

You didn’t bother to read through this thread anyway, as Mr C explained it well enough in the first post.

The email address is wrong. It should be: jacklinks@uploadreceipt.com
Alternatively, you can upload a receipt to this site: http://jacklinkspromo.com/upload/

I see the end date as 6/18. https://www.sherwin-williams.com/homeowners/special-offers/sales-and-coupons

@cpaynter said in Burger King App: Order a Whopper at Any McDonald's Location $0.01 (BK Mobile App Required) exp 12/12:

Sadly, it appears this deal is not for me. There are 10 Burger Kings within 9 miles of my work. Not a single one of them supports mobile ordering. Similarly, there are a dozen Burger King locations within 9 miles of my house. Not a single one of them supports mobile ordering. 😥

I live in the northwest Chicago suburbs, fwiw. Does BK marketing consider that having promos like this with such a pathetic coverage for mobile ordering actually drives business away from them to the competition?

Same with me. Sure wish BK would get with the program.

Dead now, no longer available. The available number of redemptions were apparently claimed.

Still available. Why not, I ordered one too.

@yoregano said in [CRC 03084 11oz Dry Moly Lubricant Aerosol Spray…

Since it is OOS and this normally sells for much more, we’ll see if they actually ship this.

Well, there you have it. I just got the cancellation notice:

We’re contacting you about order #XXXXXXXXXX. We recently discovered an error that caused the following item(s) to be displayed at an incorrect price:
CRC 03084 11oz Dry Moly Lubricant Aerosol Spray
In this case, we’re unable to offer this item for the incorrectly posted price. Therefore, we’ve cancelled your order for this item, and you haven’t been charged.

I got an email about downloading the Bing app and getting 500 points and double mobile search points for 30 days. I installed it and have used it, but I have not gotten 500 points and am still only able to get 100 mobile search points per day. I am getting double PC search points, at least. Anyone else have success with this?

@kohlspowrshopper

Did you get an email with an offer invitation? Link? More details, please.
I have a regular Discover Platinum cash back card, and I can’t find/don’t see anything about this anywhere in my account.

For the last Coupons app offer that was similar to this, I was able to redeem it at both Target and Walmart. For this one, even though I was able to load the offer at both stores, I was only able to get credit for the first purchase. I bought buns at Target, got credit. I tried today at Walmart, and when I attempted to redeem, I got an error message about max quantity already redeemed or something like that. Oh well.

For an extra bonus, my Ibotta app has a 25¢ offer on the purchase of any brand of hot dog buns. It may have been for Walmart only.

@fivetalents Hmm, that’s a defect in their process if that’s how it works. They need to update the app so a coupon disappears if the limit is reached (or show a 0 like Checkout51 does). The buns still show as clipped at Walmart in my account.

They’ve pretty consistently given out the gift cards in the past for similar offers when they haven’t reached the claim threshold. In fact, the last time they offered a CVS card I know it didn’t reach the level and I still got it.

According to a thread on SD, Coke is gradually sending out the gift cards, beginning yesterday and over the next several days, so keep an eye out for it.

I received my 4-pack of Lip Smacker lip balm in the mail today. (Promo from about 4 months ago. Submit 4 codes to get offer. Now expired, of course.)

I guess it took Coke a while to get the Lip Smackers stocked up, and then once they were stocked, they must’ve had plenty left over. I got the second delivery from the newest promotion yesterday, only a couple weeks after ordering (instead of several months from the first promo earlier in the year).

I get the majority of my codes from friends, relatives, and (low-risk/effort) dumpster diving. I try to minimize actually drinking the high-sugar and/or artificially sweetened drinks themselves. This stuff is terrible for you!

Anyway, yes, it sounds like codes are being phased out on all beverages that come in these small plastic bottles. Good to know.

I pulled a Minute Made small bottle out of the trash at work today and the cap did not have a code. Anomaly, or are these caps no longer part of the program?

@rams99 said in Coke Rewards Official thread:

I saw the Amazon card is back but its a chance to win It was like that last time.Why couldn’t be guaranteed? I hate wasting my caps. This is why I have 3 full grocery bags of caps because I hoping for a guaranteed Amazon Gift Card prize. Maybe they should put a $5 Amazon prize for guaranteed option.

Read the post right above. There is a free AMOE for the Amazon card offer.

@wildbill62 said in Coke Rewards Official thread:

Does anyone want a Coca-Cola Digital Game Pack, which is a code that can be used to unlock a FIFA Ultimate Team™ Coca-Cola® prize pack in the EA SPORTS™ FIFA 18 game for Xbox One. I don’t have a FIFA 18 game or an X-Box One. So the prize I won is really no good to me. Let me know and I can email you the code. I may have one for the Playstation 4 concole as well, if somebody wants it.

FWIW, I wonder if everyone who enters this contest gets the game pack. All three accounts of mine won it on the first entry.

Perhaps I shouldn’t complain, it’s multiple free entries per day, but the #@*% site is making me click SEVERAL screens of verification boxes on EVERY entry today. I I didn’t win anything with three accounts for the holiday contest. Very tedious and annoying. Wonder what’s going on, it wasn’t like this until today.

Thankfully, I did get two $5 WM cards for the AMOE sip-n-scan contest today.

Try logging into Chrome and your Gmail account, and keep the associated cookies for it. It doesn’t get rid of all the captchas, but most of them are the one-click i’m not a robot things.

Also you can sip & scan the holiday instant win instead of using AMOE.

I tried two different browsers and was still having excessive captchas. Maybe I’ll clear cookies and start all over tomorrow and see what happens.

I like to use AMOE/free entries when possible. Not just to preserve codes (when applicable), but it’s easier anyway avoiding a step. I don’t even have any products on hand with the sip & scan icon. I suppose I could just take a pic sometime and keep one handy.

@ctujackbauer said in Coke Rewards Official thread:

Apparently there’s a mobile device/phone scan with an AMOE entry?

No, I don’t think so. You can use a smartphone to scan in codes, but that is just as opposed to typing them in. Code entry yes; AMOE, no.

Ah, I see. I guess I haven’t seen and tried the new symbol. I’m still using old codes from my stockpile. I don’t buy Coke products frequently.

@tuskers said in Official Kellogg's Family Rewards Program Codes Master Thread:

Email titled “We’re Giving Away $1000!” has
"Time For A Dip click here for 100 bonus points."

Must click in email for points. exp. 7/5/18

I know KFR usually staggers these emails and subject lines can be different, but whatever the case, I still have not received this email.

Curious where you got your information from @Tuskers.

How long does it take for the email to arrive with the GC? I presume that’s how it works. After finishing the scans, the offer shows that the limit is reached and to access the reward by click the rewards tab at the top, but the reward is not there.

Say, i just remembered, there was an offer some months back that was for an Amazon GC that involved texting that was to be offered at the end of the promotion. But I never got that. Anyone get that yet?

Okay, according to the discussion at SD, it appears that this promo is broken right now and many people are waiting for resolution from Coke. Some are getting responses to clear cookies to get the offer to show up, but that is a dodge, this is just screwed up. What a pain.

And no one seems to have received the Amazon gift cards from months ago either.

On that contest/giveaway, it said 8-10 weeks after the promotion end date of Jan 2, 2018. They still have 2 more weeks.

Thanks, yes.

Target offer did not get fixed for everyone by yesterday’s expiration date. I noticed the wording in the offer area changed from something about claiming the reward in the rewards box to, “OOPS! We’re experiencing an issue. Please try again.”, which is what it still says for me. Still waiting and hoping for resolution.

Still no gift card on any of my family accounts, and the offer is no longer showing (not unexpected, since it’s expired), so I guess i’ll wait up to a week or so to see if they rectify this before I inquire further. I tend to think this is going to require pestering them to get satisfaction.

@mrvietnam said:

Next year I will learn their marketing pitch and wait to buy the gift cards until they give 3 free meal passes.

If any are left come next year… there were several in IL that all closed within the last year or two. Looks like they are mostly a CA and FL chain now.

@mrsguin Oops, misread the calendar. Thought July 1 was Tuesday not Monday.

Shouldn’t there have been a new movie challenge yesterday? (First and third Mondays.)

@dionaea said in Official Disney Movie Rewards Master Thread:

I have a different Disney Challenge.

Tuskers posted this one two days ago.

I made an online purchase with in-store pickup at Kohl’s. Used a coupon, Kohl’s cash, and paid with gift cards, and the order tracked properly.

@mrvietnam said in [YMMV] Amazon: Smart Plug For $0.99 With Promo Code SMARTPLUG99 with free shipping for Prime members:

SMARTPLUG99

Got one of these with a promo for $5 last August, perhaps that is why none of these current codes is working for me now.

Those Donino’s deals are not limited-time, they are everyday offers that have been available for the last few years at least. Not complaining that they aren’t decent deals, as they are pretty good, but there is nothing special or different about them.

@mistercheap Agreed. I plan on going tonight with my family and we’ll bring the sandwiches home and have our own drinks and chips with them.

Been waiting for the deal on Softsoap to return. I hope it will be in stock, given the growing hysteria, er, concern right now.

I’m still working on mine from 5+ years ago. It’s not easy to use up.

If I lived by myself, probably. But the less-than-careful mopes in my house go through this stuff like water. Thankfully the Costco deal comes around fairly often. It’s by far the best cost-per-ounce that I am aware of.

In IL, all restaurants are closed for dine-in, so this is good since everything is carryout or delivery only.

This is a good deal for variety and for getting either one or two toppings or a large number of toppings, but the everyday three-topping for $7.99 is a better deal if you happen to want three toppings (for me at least, prices may vary).
