I have to ask, but you do realize this whole thing I started is a joke right?

PayPal charges a minimum fee of 29 cents per transaction (the last time I checked anyway).

Just checking. ;)

Does anyone have any Pepsi Stuff codes?
 
Does anyone have any extra Pepsi Stuff codes from caps or box flaps? I'm trying to collect them, so if anyone happens to have any they don't use...Please feel free to PM them to me. Not begging...just wanted to let anyone know who might just throw them out otherwise. Thanks.

Does anyone care? I hate marketing aimed at getting my contact information so I can get spammed.

FinkPish 02-21-08 09:58 PM

There is a Hot Deals Forum that you know about where this should go.

Feel free to "not beg" here, but you've already been outbid. ;)

Any real attempts to buy and sell codes here will force us to close this thread just as the Disney Movie Rewards one did.

Nope. I just ordered Weeds Season One, and I just basically clicked on it, it asked me if I wanted it sent to my regular address, I gave them my phone number, and clicked Place Order. As easy as that.

For all the people looking for free codes, co-workers are a great source... I drink a lot of Pepsi as it is, but I can always use more codes. I've got a box next to my desk and started a whole contest with my co-workers. One entry (a cap with a code) gets them a "heartfelt thanks", 10 entries earns them a "sincere letter of appreciation", and the person who enters the most times wins "a high-five". I've had 2 or 3 people actually say after reading the rules (I've got "Official Rules" posted next to the box) "I want to win the high-five." I have a leaderboard and everything. I figure (or am hoping atleast) as this goes on, some of these guys are going to get competitive with the leaderboard and want to win.

It's going on practically all year, so there's lots of time to collect. Just figure out a way to get people to want to give them to you... I'm also not above digging through the recycle bin at work... Whatever it takes.

I hate how its only 1 point per cap....They have a good selection of prizes though.

This might sound crazy, but it's working... In the week and a half since I made this post, I've collected over 100 codes from my co-workers. And I haven't had to beg or offer a cent. It's amazing what the promise of a simple thank you can do.

As I suspected, the leaderboard is really stirring up the competition, but one guy from the mail room is going nuts (over 50!) by collecting them for me from throughout the building, so I'm struggling to keep everyone else interested...

I've also collected one Coke Rewards cap which I don't want/need, so if anyone can use it, the code is: PA0W7MX0WJNB.

Thanks for posting, but it's already been redeemed by someone who didn't have the common courtesy to say thanks and acknowledge they used it.

BTW, I like your username. :)

Kind of a decent deal for pepsi points if you drink the stuff. Safeway has a deal where you buy 2 12 packs and get 3 free plus you get 10 extra pepsi stuff points that print at checkout. The first 2 packs cost 5.99 each so you get 5 for 11.98.

beesonosu 03-10-08 07:13 PM

These are the times when having a close relative as a bar owner is really cool! Marlboro, Pepsi, etc. I remember when Pepsi first began these points (probably before mp3s were popular). we collected enough to buy an entire wardrobe practically. Not many people buy Pepsi 20 cases at a time! Since then, I've moved away but I know my brother spent the entire summer collecting Marlboro miles and picked up some really nice things from that promotion. I'll have to call them and see if they are collecting Pepsi points now.

postalpez 03-18-08 12:21 PM

Did anyone try with postcards? anyluck?

ivelostr2 03-20-08 08:40 PM

I have gotten Ivan's childhood and fires on the plain criterion, and they both came in clear cases, anyone know if that is what they came in orriginally?

darkflounder 04-04-08 12:53 PM

I'm thinking of saving up my points, and spending them all at one time to buy entries in the drawing for the home theater system. I figure I drink enough Pepsi, and if I spend them all in one day's drawing, I've got a decent shot at having the lion's share of entries that day.

IamHydrogen1 04-04-08 06:16 PM

Has anyone had trouble redeeming the "Buy Pepsi Get One Free" caps?

According to the terms and conditions of the promotion, you're supposed to take the cap to the original place of purchase to get a free bottle.

The times I have tried, the cashiers will tell me that the cap is not good for a free Pepsi, but rather B0G1. In other words, you have to buy 2 bottles in order to get the 3rd free.

dadaluholla 04-04-08 08:38 PM

Why would you have to buy 2 to get 1 free? It says "BUY PEPSI 20 OZ GET 1 FREE". If you buy one 20oz bottle of Pepsi, you get another at no cost. I have had no issues with this.

IamHydrogen1 04-04-08 08:46 PM

Right, but my point is that if I have a cap I have already paid for one and that is my proof of purchase. I shouldn't have to buy another to get a free 20oz Pepsi.

dadaluholla 04-04-08 09:42 PM

Oh.

Well yeah, I'm sorry. It just doesn't work like that.
:lol:

IamHydrogen1 04-04-08 10:27 PM

Actually, I think it does:




Terms of offer: BUY PEPSI 20 OZ., GET ONE FREE offer or BUY PEPSI 1 LT, GET 1 FREE offer. The offer applies solely to participating Pepsi bottle products and the free 20 oz. or free 1 liter may be redeemed only in a subsequent visit to the same store by the end of the Promotion Period. Maximum retail value up to $1.39 (consumer pays tax and deposit, if applicable). Odds of receiving this offer are 1 in 8 (in areas where available). TO REDEEM THIS OFFER, present bottle cap with the buy-one-get-one-free message at a participating retailer on your next store visit to the same store (i.e., where you bought the original 20 oz. bottle or in some areas, a 1 liter bottle of any Pepsi product) before the end of the Promotion Period, and get another 20 oz. bottle (or 1-liter bottle, as applicable) for free

dadaluholla 04-04-08 11:23 PM

That is bizarre.

What if you don't buy it at a store? Like I get most of my caps at the vending machine at work. I would have never even considered you can just walk in and get a free Pepsi on it's own. They really could have avoided confusion by just saying FREE 20 OZ PEPSI.

:hscratch:

Well been saving for a few months now and I still only have 24 points. Has anyone tried postcards? If not I think I might make out some envelopes later this week....

JB7 04-24-08 06:49 AM

I have even less points, I am at 22. I haven't done the postcard thing, but have read on other message boards that it works fine. Most use the postcards from the post office.

My co-worker contest idea has sort of fizzled out. I've taken in around 350 codes from co-workers, but once the top guy reached 100, everyone else sort of gave up. Plus my second biggest contributor started giving hers to her boyfriend so that he could enter the sweepstakes. Next time I do this I'm going to give out little sticker books or something where people can earn stickers for every 10 or whatever. The way I have it now, once they reach ten, and their "sincere letter of appreciation" (gave out 7!), unless they have a shot at winning, there's nothing left to keep playing for.

However, digging through the recycling bins around here still scores me 5 or 6 caps a day, plus with my own ~3 bottle a day habit, I'm still doing ok. My biggest issue is finding things to buy with them. The selection is pretty bad, IMHO, and they're not adding anything new... But I can't really complain about free...

The other people that make their own were successful also?
