Three weeks away from Valentine's Day and there is already a flurry of activities in major cities across the federation as shopping frenzy for gift items has started.

Jaymoore collect this wan as my Vals gift to you. |
Interestingly, one gift that seems to have stolen the heart of many is the new branded Coca Cola drink. The drink seems to be the shoppers’ choice.
Shoppers, who were sighted buying the new coke at Shoprite, Ikeja, expressed satisfaction as they bought coke in large quantities with their name written on its cans and plastic.
According to a shopper, Babajide Adebayo, the innovation would help him spend less this Valentine.
“I will spend less for Valentine this year. All I need do is to purchase a pack or half of the new branded Coca Cola with my girl’s name and I know she would love it. The brain behind this innovation must have had Valentine in mind when they inscribed ‘Share a Coke with Ibrahim’ on its bottle. It could be someone else’s name, he said.
Ikechukwu Nworfor, another shopper who is excited about the innovation said it gives him the opportunity to find affordable gift items for his loved ones. “The timing is right. These people surely know how to arrange things; this is a good gift concept any day, any time.”
Besides serving as gift packs for Valentine, most people also consider them as souvenirs. Sharing his experience, Fred Nwosisi said it is a special collectors’ item anytime, any day.
Justifying the need for the products, a representative of the Coca Cola Company, who asked not to be named because he is not authorised to speak on behalf of the company, said that those customers who want branded bottles in large quantity will have to be referred to the company’s head office where the contractor and the producer will take such orders, according to him, this offer is available only to customers who want to purchase hundred cartons and more.
“The unique thing about this whole thing is that the price remains the same despite all the interesting features in designs and labeling,” he said.

Never celebrated Vals day despite the fact that my birthday's a day before.
Nigerians can easily be swayed by tiny things.
I pirry the person that's on the hunt for 'Portia' on a coke bottle.
Possibly a gulder ultimate search!
Lol
Brownsugar, you dey the same boat with me but I've cultivated the habit of celebrating it in the motherless babies home.....
DeleteLikewise. Stella do single and mingle post, maybe val day I can have some one to chit chat with even if we don't hang out.
Delete@jewel not angry, I'm used to it. Nothing so special about that day to me....

Sweet mouth,jedijedi!naaaaaaaaaa
ReplyDeleteWhat better way to sell coke?I would rather have no gift than get a branded coke bottle on vals day. My fridge is already full of all my names on coke bottles and boo has his too. I still think Valentines day should be a renewal of vows (married ppl) and reminder of love and trust to partners and appreciation of friendships.
ReplyDeletesuch valentine coke... mtchew pls instead giv me a valentine sprite o. coke ko coke ni

DeleteCoca Cola should give it a rest.
ReplyDeleteNothing for una this valentine's Day.
I hope cheap skates; Adebayo and Nwofor's girlfriends are not on this blog.
Your valentine gift is half a dozen bottles of coke.
Coke no wan gree o! Annoying thing is you can't even find a plain bottle of coke except it is Fanta or Sprite, even the packed ones are branded. Coke has chopped money finish o!
DeleteReminds me of last week that I went to d mall and this woman was busy looking for the coke bottle with the name- blessing. Apparently, she drank her daughter's bottle of coke and she was asked not to come home until she gets the same one.
What coke will cause ehn! I fear o!
Madam goldscent! How una dey?
LMAO....
DeleteBwahahahahahahaha...
DeleteNo be small cheap stakes oo.
Imagine?!..
Madam Jewel, we are fine. Thanks for asking.
DeleteHow your side?
Do you mean all the coke bottles for sale are already branded with names?
I'm good o! at least getting better.
DeleteYes o! All the plastic coke bottles are branded, I've been to like 4 main stores and even the roadside store by my house has only branded bottles.
Now I only look for my name and keep in my fridge, at least I will feel better drinking a bottle with my name on it than someone else's.
Coke ke? No way o! Ahaha..

Sad SDK, Just coke for me hmmm. Please send better gift, I will even prefer a Munich beer to the coke but I want your type of Rolex watch (men's version).
ReplyDeleteDis year's valentine is election loaded already.
ReplyDeleteMe love some coke&hot yummy jollof rice. But the sugar content in their isn't healthy. This is so not a good valentine's gift joor. I nor want.
ReplyDeleteDats so true, i love coke before now nd my love increased wen i started seeing d new look but my bf shld not try nd send me a bottle of cook for valentine bcus ma name is on it oo
ReplyDeleteNice Innovation, Coca Cola
ReplyDeleteA very good sales innovation frm coca-cola. Yes,human beings are that vain that they like to hear or see their name in print. I am not a fan of coca-cola but I bought one that has my name on it just for the mere fact that my name was written on it. I use this name thing to my advantage all d time. When I go to eateries for example,all I need do is to check d name tag on d servers cloth and call him/her by it, e.g, kemi,how r u today?. And believe me,my potion of food is always bigger than normal.
ReplyDeleteRuth!hmmm special name for special people.Me no want N100 coke for val o!
ReplyDeleteCHAI!!!! ANOTHER VALENTINE AND I'M STILL BOOLESS!!! 3 YEARS IN A ROW ALREADY.... GOD ABEG LOOK MY MATTER NA.
ReplyDeleteI'm still your baby Ooo!!!!
Yay!!!@ brown sugar hi 5 and e-hugs. Good to know.
ReplyDeleteThis cannot be a Val's gift. It can be a gift but not a Val's gift. Mayb Oyibo babes fit appreciate am, but 4 naija babes, lai lai, this aint no treasurable Val's gift.
ReplyDeleteKing Iphy commenting...
