Cha-Ching! 144 Free Cans of Soda

Posted on July 07, 2006 by Her and tagged free, rebates

gross-soda.jpgThis week I went on a rebate rampage and earned us 144 free cans of soda. Both Dominicks and CVS are offering a promotion where you can purchase four 12-packs of soda for $10, and get a rebate for $10, making the soda essentially free (except for sales tax and a stamp, of course). The offers do not conflict, meaning that you can get all three. Two of the offers are for select Coke products while one is for select Pepsi products.

Total value of freebies: $3.99 per 12-pack (at regular prices), for twelve 12-packs: $47.88. Still, not as good as my record freebie value, $76.

Actually, I suppose I really only got 143 free cans. I accidentally cut one open when I was removing the UPC from the box. Oops!

Free stuff is good stuff if you remember to take the time to send the rebate in. I recently let a $100 DELL rebate expire!!!! ARRRGGGGHHHH!

Dear In Debt,

If you're in debt why do you need to drink coke and copious amounts?
Next, you'll probably go on a diet and ponder, "Why am I so fat?"

Good luck climbing back out of debt.

Rotten,

I don't see what you're getting at. If you took the time to properly read the post, you surely saw how all of what was bought was essentially FREE.

If we're in debt we can't drink coke? Huh?
