Coke codes on the caps
I can't read them. I never have trouble with the ones printed on the boxes. But the caps make me insane!!

My DH has a hard time with them too. He discovered that if he holds the cap close to a lamp (with the light behind the cap) it makes it a bit easier for him to read them.

also sometimes it is much better to read if you pull the little plastic/rubber seal piece out. I have noticed that the printing on these can vary greatly from area to area.

I usually don't have any problems reading the caps, but I did have one 24-pack code that I just couldn't get to submit. The code was so hard to read!

If you ever have one you cannot read, you can submit it thru the site and they will apply it to your account. There is a place on there in FAQ.

Yep, that's what I have to do. I find it better when they are backlit, rather than trying to read them with light on top.

I found the perfect cure for the caps which, I agree, are very hard to read...
hold it above a maglight flashlite... or a personal flash light...works perfectly!
