While the hubby supposedly worked on his assignment, I read through my February issue of RedBook, washed three loads of laundry, sipped some Coke and made a whole pack of Japanese rice crackers disappear.
It’s totally twisted how my “wifey mode” turns on when the hubby and I stay at home because he has to do school work. I say twisted because he expects me to be on “stand-by mode”, as willing a recipient of his unlimited hugs and kisses as a stuffed animal, as opposed to my unusually energetic mood.
Anyways, Coke keeps me sane in more ways than just the supply of sugary happiness. I got my 1-year RedBook subscription free from MyCokeRewards.com. RedBook seemed to be the best magazine for my lifestyle as a newly-wed wife. It has recipes, tips on married life, fashion finds, stories, coping strategies, feng shui and more. Some articles may be more useful to me when I actually have kids than now that it’s just the hubby and me in our little family.
Getting Coke Rewards is easy. I simply entered the codes on the caps of Coke products into my account, earn points for that and claim my rewards when I have sufficient points for something I like. Last year, I got the RedBook subscription for 130 points, and just yesterday, I claimed a Marie Claire subscription in exchange for 168 points. (Hey don’t start counting how much Coke I consume!) I’m hoping the first copy is the April issue where Project Runway’s Anthony Williams’ creation will be featured.
A year’s supply of Hearst magazines in exchange for all the Coke I gulped, and all the weight I gained through that… There should also be a lot of exercise routines in those magazines.
