Coke Rewards halves PC Points Cost
You can now redeem Coke Rewards (www.mycokerewards.com) points for twice as many PC Points as the last time I posted about this - 125 points gets you 500 PC Points, 500 gets you 2000 PC Points.
I know that a number of people consider this to be a poor exchange rate, but it's about the only reward worth redeeming for, any more.

This is excellent news! After Delta ran out I stockpiled for a while and reluctantly settled on further filling up my PC account. I haven't redeemed yet, any chance that I can hold the PC codes for a few months and use them toward '09 status?

Go ahead and redeem for the points now - what you get is just a code. When you enter that at the PC site your points show up, just like the 5000 point cert we get for renewing Ambassador status. My email from Coke did not show an expiration date, but you might want to ask Coke Rewards or PC if there is one.

Thanks for posting this.
Off-topic: I never understood why MCR offers the same ratio for trading small and large numbers of points. The same was true for Delta last year whether you were getting 1,000 or 25,000 miles. It seems like they should give an incentive to save up. Like 125 MCR = 500 PC and 500 MCR = 2100 PC.

Good things come to those who wait. While the transfer ratio to PC points has improved considerably, I think I'll wait a little longer to see if DL miles come back on line.

Often true, but historically those who have waited to cash in for rewards on My Coke Rewards have gone without. Those who indicated that they were stockpiling points to use after the April change are probably kicking themselves now. YMMV
Good luck!

Haha! About time I can cash in all these points I've been accumulating . . . . its still not the best conversion ratio, but its good enough to make me take advantage before its gone.

I hope that those of you that wanted to cash out Coke Rewards Points for PC points have done so - at this time the reward has been removed from the site. And, I still don't see the Delta miles back on there.

We can breathe again. Looks like a "software error" for "Wednesday the 13th".

This has been fixed. The PC Points, Budget RAC, Royal Caribbean, and even the contests are back. I did have to reset a few "Favorites" entries. However, I was able to redeem for 2000 PC Points. Note, however, that the last two lines of the redemption message are missing, where the www.priorityclub.com/deposit link should be. Just use the link manually, or from a previous redemption, though another noted they can find it through the PC website.

I have gone back and cashed in another 125 points. Thanks!
