The Value Of A Bottle Cap Or An Exam Question
Coke offers rewards if you have the patience to enter their bottle cap codes on the Internet. Eight bottle caps lead to a free 20oz drink. A 20oz drink costs $1.49 at the campus store. It is less at other places. Coke seems to be doing away with 20oz bottles in favor of half-liter bottles. Many people recycle their bottles with the caps left on them. I recover these caps from the recycling bins. This costs me very little except for funny looks from passer-bys. I readily admit I drink too much soda. It is bad for my acid reflux. I prefer Diet Pepsi to Coke Zero or Diet Coke. I usually buy store brand soda (Big K). There are other rewards (offers) from Coke for bottle cap points, but I find these unattainable and overpriced.

What happened to Obama's promise of "no taxes on those making less than $250K"?
Also, why are you ignoring opportunity costs?
Shit, they've expanded. Beer, Cigarettes, Soft Drinks, Chips. DAMNIT.

The lesson from this post is I have way too much time on my hands.
The coupons now include 16 and 24oz drinks.
