How the hell do you get points? I tried to enter all of the coke rewards drawings and instant wins. they said I don't have any points. How do you get them without buying the product? Anyone know?????
I am not entering any Coke sweeps right now, but I used to enter the Instant Wins, which you can do using free codes.
For the typical Coke IW, such as this one:
MyCokeRewards - Longhorn Steakhouse Sweepstakes New
Instant Win {IW} Prizes {4,474-1ppp} ; IW Grand Prizes {10} ; A Steak Entrée each month for a year at LongHorn Steakhouse. ARV: $232.80. IW 1st Prizes {4,464} : A $5 eGift Card to LongHorn Steakhouse. ARV: $5. Limit: 1 prize per person.

*************
For the Daily sweeps, I guess you have to check the rules to see if there is an
AMOE or mail-in option. I used to enter them using the codes from the caps, but I quit because I had to reduce my typing (hand problem), and I never won.
...I just checked the rules, and also I see our SA editors indicated "mail in option" in the sweeps listing.
Here is an example, plus a quote from the rules:
MyCokeRewards.com - His & Her Kindle Fire Contest
Enter to win A set of 2 Kindle Fire HDX tablets with dual-antenna Wi-Fi and 1280x800 HD display.
Restrictions : 18+ US |
Limit : 100 Per Person / Per Day 1 points per entry or Mail option. Max. 100 entries per day total across all MyCokeRewards Sweepstakes. | Added : 03-01-14 | Expires : 04-30-2014 | Hits : 353 | Rules
From Section 5c:
"c. Free Method of Entry: During any Individual Sweepstakes Period, hand print your name, address, phone number, My Coke Rewards username (email address), age, and the title of the sweepstakes you wish to enter (as set forth on the list of "Sweepstakes") on a 3" x 5" piece of paper and mail it in an envelope with proper postage to "2014 My Coke Rewards Sweepstakes – Free Entry" and write the title of the Sweepstakes that you wish to enter on the envelope, c/o ePrize, Inc., P.O. Box 5996, Dept. 580902, Kalamazoo, MI 49003-5996. For each mailed-in entry, you will receive 1 entry into the individual Sweepstakes indicated on your entry card and envelope. Limit: 1 entry per envelope. All mail-in entries must be handwritten, become the exclusive property of Sponsor, and none will be acknowledged or returned. Proof of sending or submission will not be deemed to be proof of receipt by Sponsor. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible, illegible, misdirected or postage-due entries, which will be disqualified. All mail-in entries must be postmarked and received by the dates set forth in the Sweepstakes Info section of the individual Sweepstakes accessed from the "Sweepstakes" section of Rewards Catalog on the Website."
So, you can send in 100 mail-in entry requests per day across all Coke sweeps (not 100 per sweep per day) if you want!!!
