Coke is it

I almost never drink Coca-Cola—about a bottle per year, maybe, unless it’s got rum in it at a bar somewhere—but I grabbed a bottle of “Zero,” the latest no-calorie wonder drug from that company, to see what it tasted like (answer: just like any other diet cola I’ve ever had) and to see if I would win a song on the iTunes Store (answer: nope). You peel a sticker off of the cap and then take the number printed on it to this website, where you enter it and have the Flash animation laugh at you for being a loser.

This is a bit better thought out than the Pepsi iTunes giveaway they did in the States some time ago, since you could peek into the bottle right there in the Kwikee Mart and choose a winner every time. Anyway, no free song for me today, but the translator sitting next to me had another cap (another loser) that has brought my point total to 2. Once I save up 3 I can try for the gift card good for 10 songs; if I save up 12 points I can go for an iPod Nano instead. I’ll probably give the gift card a shot. I can squeeze in one more bottle of Coke before this contest ends, and call it next year’s bottle in advance.
