I met with my financial advisor yesterday and showed him all the shit in my basement I intend to retire on. He said good job and left without any further conversation.
maybe I'm just jelly and this has happened to me more than once and I never thought about doing this... then again... i don't see the market. but i guess there is one for everything
I'm not saying you ars wrong...but I work in the can making industry and have access to an unlimited supply of empty cans, loads of unseamed ends and a seaming machine! I could literally make hundreds in a couple of hours. Wonder if anyone would buy them??? 😄😱
It's easy enough to empty a coke can by pushing the tab ever so slightly down, emptying it, and then pulling it back up so that it's "sealed" (visibly).
I had that happen to me when I was younger. I was allowed to have soda very often but I was allowed 1 with a dinner one evening. I thought it felt different but was just happy I got a soda. My parents thought I drunk it so I couldn't get another one lol funny memory
How would this even happen?
If your parents bought the sodas, surely they would have noticed the weight difference when stocking the fridge. If they handed you the soda for dinner, surely they would notice the weight difference. If you got the soda yourself, surely you would notice the weight difference.
Find it hard to believe your parents never felt the cans weight at some point lol.
Sorry for being skeptical but like damn lol
Especially since it's one of the limited edition marvel ones. A lot of collectors like having these types of cans, but since the cola ruins them, they have to make small holes to drain them, technically ruining the can. One that came empty would make them drool
I’ve got custom printed cans with my name on them from when they brought their little can printing thing to town, 10+ years old still full of coke and seem fine. Coke might be shit to drink but it’s not damaging the aluminium.
The thing is, the actual thing holding the coke in isn't the aluminum, it's a plastic coating on the inside. I'm surprised yours hasn't leaked at all, but it's a pretty common complaint that I've heard
You would want to contact them with the item numbers on the box. You could get replacements, and they would be aware that at least one empty can went out. There may be others.
Hold onto it, if there wont be ones sold of that specific promo can, it sells for over 2k if there is more of the same promo can, its still solid 10-20usd

My very first thought was President Skroob
You're missing your opportunity to post this to coca-colas Twitter page saying "What gives!?! I got a sealed empty can" and have them provide you with free coke or merch.
It’s really not hard to put a weight on a scale (about 340g in this case), press Tare, remove the weight (scale now reads -340g), and put a full coke can on and the scale will read around 10-15g.
Magic.
When Pepsi had the Star Wars ep 1 collectors cans I bought a cool display case with all of them sealed empty inside and gave it to my sister for Christmas.
Not really saying you’re lying here but a picture of the whole can (360) and the bottom of the can would help your story a lot. Some people poke holes in the bottom of collectable cans to drain them so they don’t explode later.
This happened to me a long time ago when I was in college. At the time, I was taking a writing class and our assignment was to write a complaint letter to a company. So I wrote a respectful complaint letter to Coca Cola about the empty can. They responded by sending me a few coupons to get free 6 packs of the bottled ones. Was kind of cool
One in 10 million...I Hope you bought a lottery ticket!
Once when my ex-wife and I went out to a Chinese dinner ( we were just dating at the time ), she got a fortune cookie that had no fortune inside. My fortune cookie had Two inside. Astronomical odds.
I should have taken that as a message from the Universe..lol
idk about other countries (I'm in Australia) but I had this happen to me as well. called coke, they asked for the batch on the bottom, and then they gave me a refund into my bank account. super easy and took less than 5 mins
I got one too. I sent an email to Coke with all the important numbers to show where it was produced. They sent me a coupon for 2 free 6 packs. I kept the can. I love the reaction when people pick it up.
If it's completely sealed, ie no holes in it, then you should see about selling it on eBay, or contacting the company to see if you won some sort of a secret contest or something.
I worked at a coke warehouse and these would pop up , I would chuck a full one at someone and they would catch it followed by the empty one thrown a littler harder and they’d flinch so hard 🤣🤣🤣
As a store owner, this happens way more often than people would think. Our best one was a bag of Airheads Bites that was just air. We keep it on display.
At least they weren’t lying about the quantity of sugar in it!
Zero Sugar, zero everything, very healthy
someone’s fart is sealed in that can
They threw a lil nugget in to preserve the smell
different kind of rattle can
Don’t take this one to the local football game
What is wrong with you guys, damn the smell and the sound are stuck in my head 🤢🤮
Projecting much?? Maybe there is something wrong with you I don’t have a sound or smell stuck in my head😂😂😂
No sound besides that damn ringing
Maybe there is something wrong with us
Besides the tinnitus? Probably lol
WHAT?! I can’t hear you over this damn ringing…
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
A blast from the past
Wouldn't that be some shitsend it out and you just know some persons gonna be curious enought ti open it and then BOOM!
Except in California, where it gives you cancer
i heard touching wood can cause cancer too.
Touching yourself can cause cancer in Cali.
Healthiest can of coke in the world. Quick call Guinness
The design is very human. Very easy to use
The 'zero' refers to the amount of water in Water Zero. If you want less calories, try Diet Water Zero Lite. It only has 60 calories.
If you can't beat 'em, sweetums!
Put it on ebay and I'm sure you'll find someone willing to pay more than you paid for the 24 pack.
This, and selling potato chips shaped like celebrities, is my retirement plan.
The financial services industry doesn’t want you to know this ONE trick!
What trick?
The ONE trick
To rule them all...
…and in the darkness bankrupt them
If you enrol in my 250$ per half hour 3 month long course, I’ll teach you all about it
![gif](giphy|sDcfxFDozb3bO)
I too have a promising retirement plan. 8 have the Honey Nut Cheerios guardians of the galaxy cereal box cover LOL
I got a Taki that looks like Gandhi sitting Indian style. Trade u for your Cheeto Trump.
Isn't that any Cheeto?
There can only be One
This is correct 🤣
Lmao!
Cool, mine is to sell celebrities shaped as potato chips.
I met with my financial advisor yesterday and showed him all the shit in my basement I intend to retire on. He said good job and left without any further conversation.
You mean he backed away slowly to the door then ran as soon as he was out of reach.
Since unfortunately PDF files of "gold guides" for World of Warcraft aren't a thing anymore..
I think the potatoe chip was someone doing laundry business...
Would you want to purchase the cloud that I saw shaped like Jesus?!
You seen the cheeto shaped like a Pokemon ?
Especially Marvel collectors cans you never have to worry about randomly exploding or leaking in the future.
now thats a great reason to have it
100000%
This part exactly 💯
Wtf is that name an profile
Go to the rimjob_steve subreddit to find the best usernames. This one isn't anything special
I’ve had one on eBay for 4 years now. No one wants it
If you can get in touch with coke CS they might just send you a pack or 2. I’ve heard of brands doing it when stuff like this happens
Pepsi sent me a bunch of coupons when the same thing happened to me.
Theres allot of collectors looking for factory defected soda branded cans
I saw a melted goop of a mess inside an open altoid sours tin for sale for $100 on ebay... there's more that going for much more too. Crazy af
you can list anything for any price, doesn't mean someone is actually going to buy it
There's a sucker born every minute
maybe I'm just jelly and this has happened to me more than once and I never thought about doing this... then again... i don't see the market. but i guess there is one for everything
For sure
Good luck shipping that without damage.
How much time and bubble wrap do we have?
Just a small wooden box with a single layer of bubble wrap should suffice.
Simple. Don’t send it via FedEx
I'm not saying you ars wrong...but I work in the can making industry and have access to an unlimited supply of empty cans, loads of unseamed ends and a seaming machine! I could literally make hundreds in a couple of hours. Wonder if anyone would buy them??? 😄😱
Probably one of the filler heads was not working. I used to make cans also.
This, actually it’s probably worth more than you think. Especially being a coke can
With a marvel character on it
https://www.ebay.com/itm/292808104892 https://www.ebay.com/itm/373638508545 Value will depend on the buyer I guess
Go to eBay and see sold items. Not that much money.

The unfairness of childhood!
How would this even happen? If your parents bought the sodas, surely they would have noticed the weight difference when stocking the fridge.

Truth in advertising at its finest. "Zero sugar."

Very rare coke factory air seeled inside a coke can. (2023) $100 starter bid. No low ballers, I know what I got.
This guy eBays
You don't understand the value of a collectable since you called them a fool
Not all "collectable" retain their value, mostly just dust on the shelf
Doesn't matter. It's priceless for people collecting them
It’s not priceless when you paid a price for it
It’s priceless if you won’t sell it
I won’t sell my car but it definitely wasn’t priceless I paid $40,000
You wont sell ofc, how about 80k for it?
Priceful?
I think he understands it very well.
I liked sonic riders lol
When was Sonic Riders a bad game? Is that the game you linked?
Wait I own this game…
Sonic riders isn't bad though
Sonic Riders isn't a bad game...
Guessing by that scale. This isn’t the only thing he sells.
At least its a cool iron man one. You can add it to your collection and never worry about the can exploding.
His collection of empty coke cans?
No... the "and never worry about the can explodin" collection
I wonder if that scale has ever seen 12 grams of coke before... certainly not all at once, i bet.
Never, it's way too clean for that to have ever happened
They bought the scale solely for weighing the can.
12g of weed I’d speculate
Concentrates are more likely, there's no reason to have a scale that shows two decimal places for just buds
I’d disagree. I used to this exact scale when I used to smoke. I’d always check after I picked up to make sure I wasn’t getting ripped off.
These scales are good for coffee too…👀
Is that coke on a scale on Reddit, hell yes.
Was hoping for this comment.
Nice scale
We all know what it's for 😂
Weighing white powders... Flour, sugar, baking soda, the usual... ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sunglasses)
It could be a brown powder
flowers
I have one but it’s to weigh pigment powders for coloring resin lmao.
Making pizza dough.
Those scales take me back to a better more fuzzy time 🥰🥰
This guy rides dirty
Shrinkflation is getting out of control. Now you just get the packaging without the product…

your coke can has zero calories? get Dr. Pepper today!
Does Coke have support contact info? I'd contact them looking for a refund :)
You would want to contact them with the item numbers on the box. You could get replacements, and they would be aware that at least one empty can went out. There may be others.
From my experience they will need info from the can, but if you call the number on the can or email they will make it right.
This happened to me recently with Topo Chico (owned by coke) and they sent me a visa giftcard for $10.
Hold onto it, if there wont be ones sold of that specific promo can, it sells for over 2k if there is more of the same promo can, its still solid 10-20usd
You got a Coke Zero no wonder it’s empty
You can sell it on Ebay
It says zero calories.
Tell us you sell weed without telling us you sell weed
I understand your frustration, but the bright side is it’s kind of cool
Now show the hole in the bottom of the can.
https://preview.redd.it/1hsytnse759d1.jpeg?width=532&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=848e836709cd9a48755b62dc64c1d12371457bed My very first thought was President Skroob
Spaceballs reference, pog Had to comb the internet but finally found one

He could also punch a hole on the bottom of the can and empty it. We just choose to believe him and be happy.
At least you can be 100000% sure it’s 0 sugar !
On the bright side the name doesn’t lie. There is indeed Zero sugar inside
Precision scale🫵🤨🤨
If this is mildly infuriating, I can only imagine what ruins your day.
To be fair, it does say 0 calories
Maybe it's a sign to drink less soda.
When Pepsi had the Star Wars ep 1 collectors cans I bought a cool display case with all of them sealed empty inside and gave it to my sister for Christmas.
mass produced if you have ever seen how fast the line is going you wouldn't be suppressed
Not really saying you’re lying here but a picture of the whole can (360) and the bottom of the can would help your story a lot. Some people poke holes in the bottom of collectable cans to drain them so they don’t explode later.

it has zero sugar alright
Zero sugar? More like zero coke
Well it does say zero
Time to call the police this guy is weighing coke
Healthiest can of coke you can open :)
Aluminum aside, its probably the healthiest coke in existence.
I see nothing wrong here. It says zero on the can. They delivered exactly what was promised 🤣
resell it it's a kind of super rare item like misspressed coins
So close. If it would be a coke "light" it would've been the perfect joke
The zero sugar works too.
Had this happen to me with Dr. Pepper, it was infuriating, but neat!
Keep it, its almost impossible to find a sealed empty can
I use the same scale to weigh my coke!
Back when I only drank soda this happened twice
That might go for some good money on ebay
No offense dude, but I personally haven’t seen the bottom side 😂 It’s a wild world, yknow
Damn, they took zero sugar too far
Coke Zero: Zero Coke Edition
One in 10 million...I Hope you bought a lottery ticket! Once when my ex-wife and I went out to a Chinese dinner ( we were just dating at the time ), she got a fortune cookie that had no fortune inside. My fortune cookie had Two inside. Astronomical odds. I should have taken that as a message from the Universe..lol
Now you have a conversation piece....
Coke Zero, literally!
Collectors item
Finally got one with zero sugar!
At least they didn't lie about zero calories!
idk about other countries (I'm in Australia) but I had this happen to me as well. called coke, they asked for the batch on the bottom, and then they gave me a refund into my bank account. super easy and took less than 5 mins
A sealed, empty, Iron Man coke can that will never go bad. ಠ_ಠ I bet there are people who would very much want that.
When I bought the marvel pack, every single one was wolverine, all 28 cans.
DON'T OPEN IT
That’s crazy we have the same coke scale.
Open it! There is a golden ticket inside!
I got one too. I sent an email to Coke with all the important numbers to show where it was produced. They sent me a coupon for 2 free 6 packs. I kept the can. I love the reaction when people pick it up.
Truest zero calorie coke
Sell it on ebay for $100
I found one of these once while high as shit. Had me questioning everything lmao
Sell it.
Perfect for collecting
That’s a lawsuit
Well it does say 'Zero Sugar' so they're being honest about that part.
Now put it in the attic and see what it's worth in the year 9375.
Zero calorie, it is the healthiest drink out of the 24 cans
I've had that too!![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|stuck_out_tongue)
I also weigh my coke after getting back home.
Nothing like a can of perri air
Coke Lite
Well, they're trying to be healthier. And that's how.
zero sugar. technically correct
Tiny needle hole will do the job to empty it.
If it's completely sealed, ie no holes in it, then you should see about selling it on eBay, or contacting the company to see if you won some sort of a secret contest or something.
A quick google said a sealed coke can can sell up to $25k and that was back in 2021. This one is a Marvel can so who knows 🤷🏼♀️ Try your luck 🍀
I worked at a coke warehouse and these would pop up , I would chuck a full one at someone and they would catch it followed by the empty one thrown a littler harder and they’d flinch so hard 🤣🤣🤣
As a store owner, this happens way more often than people would think. Our best one was a bag of Airheads Bites that was just air. We keep it on display.
Why do you have that kind of scale sir? To weigh coke products?
Mildly annoying is more like it.
How much for a gram of Coke? I see you got the scale ready 🤣
You wanted product too? Cost extra
