correct me if i'm wrong but i remember the commercial saying that coke will donate $2M to the cause...over 5 years. To me 2M over five years sounds like 400k/year which is probably 30 seconds worth of revenue for coke. hell, even 2M/year for coke is nothing! super lame attempt at goodwill marketing imho.

It could go to something else. Yeah, probably marketing, but who's going to say "no" to the funding? Coke sponsors all kinds of other things.

I have two cans for my display case. Thanks for the offer, though. I have all four of the aluminum Olympic bottles, as well as both plastic Fifa soccer ball bottles, last Christmas Ornament bottle, and shorty, classic glass bottle. There are so many different types of Coke bottles - mind blowing. I can just imagine your cousin's collection.

A moustache'd can for Movember?....actually i would have totally gone out to collect that.

I liked the white cans, tasted the same, cost the same, but was different. I don't usually buy coke anymore, but I picked up a case for the white cans.
I will say they look a lot like the diet cans, and can imagine why retarded americans got confused and pissed off.
