UPC trading Forum

My recent surfing expeditions lead to the discovery of something very useful:
UPC trading forums.

Lets say that you are using only a few cartons of Chocolate milk a year. I happen to use organic milk a lot. I can trade some of my milk carton UPCs. If you think that you have to use an MIR every time, you are wri=ong. Talk to companies and you will be amazed.

Pampers already has a"gifts to grow" program.
"My coke rewards" is very popular.
Boxtops: who does not know about them. Time we had atrading forum. May I invite suggestions from fellow savers to use UPCs creatively?
  1. Gifts to Grow
  2. My coke rewards
  3. Boxt tops

Cigarette UPCs (never smoked myself) used to have valuable merchandise for x amount of UPC's.

Beer companies used to do similar promotions.

I have not seen these in years, but I have not looked for them either. I just knew a couple bar owners who made a killing selling the merchandise they received from these promotions.

Pepsi and Coca Cola do points for merchandise too and I honestly drink way too much soda not to take advantage of these offers...my bad!


Box tops have to be the most under utilized potential money maker around. I cannot believe how many non school aged parents do not know about these. We didn't, our friends didn't, and by the number redeemed at our kids school not many parents know either.
