Kool-Aid Kool Points
Kool-Aid Kool Points Discontinued - How Do You Redeem Them? Click HERE!
I've been saving these things since I was a little kid. Let's find out if that was a total waste of time or if I have something really cool coming my way. Oh, yeah!!! Read on...
How Ya Get 'Em
Kool Points are found on every package of Kool-aid.
What Can You Get With Them?
Merchandise from their online catalog, found here: http://www.kraftfoods.com/koolaid/2001/ka_all_stuff.html
How Much is a Point Worth?
Not much. At all. The points required have no relation to the value of the redemption...but strangely (not!) the shipping and handling does. Take VideoNow discs...they require 24 points each plus $1.75 s&h. Discs cost around $8 in the store, so figure $6 = 24 points, or $1 = 4 points. Right?
Nope. A Kool-Aid Kite...a basic red kite with the Kool-Aid man's face on it... costs 100 points plus $1.75 s&h... Which at 4 points for a buck would come out to $26.75 shipped!
There's no rhyme or reason to the "cost" of the items. I think they're pretty much valued at what they're charging you for S&H...plus maybe a dollar. (Except those Video Now discs...which look to be a pretty darned good deal!)
Is This Program Worth It?
On the whole...nope. You're not getting something for nothing, and you're not getting much of a reward at all for your Kool-Aid purchases. So if you see Country Time or Wyler's at about the same price or maybe a little cheaper, but you were thinking, "Oh, but I get Kool-Aid Points for buying Kool-Aid".... Go for the cheaper one!

My family and I have been saving Kool-aid points for many, many years. We wanted to take advantage of the trip for 4 to Six Flags, but were short of a few points. We kept saving and now the Six Flags trip is not even offered. What has become of the good prizes?
Date: February 22, 2005 3:46 AM
I was tying to get my son excited over recieving something cool if we saved up enough, not realizing there is not one thing an ten year old wants. Why? Kool-Aide has been around for years. We adults buy your product and encourage our children to consume a Kool-Aid product rather than competiors. I was under the impression that the Kool-Aide name represents that quality and reward would go hand and hand. I would have to say that I am truly dissappointed in your Kool-Aide kool points order form consits of. I not only lost all respect for your products and what you represent, but my 13yr old, 11 yr old, 10yr old,& 8 year old sons now all are feel that once again a Big Company who does not realize the benifits of the advertising that would take place if you had a wider selection and some more hip items for the supposed (COOL)Kool-Aide points, I am ashamed of Misleading advertising and now four more future parents who are not going to think so Highly of purchasing a Kool-Aide product.
Date: March 1, 2005 9:19 PM
I agree with ALL the comments posted, what happened Kool-Aid? Where's the game systems, and all the other neat stuff?
Date: March 3, 2005 2:18 AM
i have used koolaid points for at least 15 years and every time that i order you never have that prize. also you should make a better selection of things to order and more of them. maybe something for the younger kids and the older kids around 10 yrs old. give us somtehing to choose from this is getting boring. i can get more out of my club z points
Date: March 13, 2005 9:03 AM
You'll find Kool-Aid in my refrigator all the time. Loved it since I've been a kid. and now my kids love it too. It's a family Tradition!!!!!
What's new in the Kool-Aid points??
Date: March 15, 2005 9:01 PM
Well....ditto to what everyone else is saying. Sure isn't much choice there & no offer for a catalog. I've got thousands of points saved in a cannister from raising my kids. They use to do displays in the stores with neat stuff to get like a Kool Aid Barbie. I'd love to add that to my daughter's collection. And my old pitcher & mugs bit the dust, finally got too ugly & yellowed from storing them.
Date: March 15, 2005 9:03 PM
PS. Seems like they'd take a hint from the millions McDonald's makes off of happy toys....I have thousands dating back to their beginning. And also Beanies....we ALL know that story....teehee.
Date: March 18, 2005 12:59 PM
Like everyone else who made their opinions and feelings clear, I too have many points, been making and enjoying Kool Aid since I was a kid, raised my 5 on it, had the funny face mugs, pitcher, ordered all sorts of great things. I now have 7 grandkids and 2 great grandkids and was so in hopes of continuing the great Kool Aid collection... cannot believe the items I am seeing .... Kraft Foods should take note and bring back the good stuff for all us loyal, faithful consumers who have brought generations to your products... STILL use and buy many. Maybe I should start looking around at others? Sign me disappointed, Toni Russell
Date: March 18, 2005 4:48 PM
I am so disappointed with the item selection for points. I have been saving for years like all above and continue to do so. For whatever reason, maybe that Koolaid will get there act together and put up something worth while in there selection. How bout it Koolaid?
Date: April 2, 2005 12:48 PM
As already mentioned, I am disappointed with the koolaid point system. I was one of those children that grew up off of milk & water, so when I went to college, I went koolaid crazy & I thought that the point system was crazy cool. To this day, myself & my fiancee stay in touch with our inner child by purchasing koolaid products. As of late though, I have been highly disappointed in a corporation that takes advantage of parents & their children by sucking them into a point collection system by promising "great prizes" when the product is really not that great. As for me, I drink Koolaid because it is a childish part of myself that I want to keep in touch with, but the product itself is not the best thing on the market to drink. Parents, if you want to teach your children how to earn, save and spend wisely, help them set up a summer lawnmoving business. If you're looking for something tasty to drink, there are other things cheaper out there. And those of you, who like me, are trying to keep in touch with their inner child, Saturday morning cartoons can keep the feeling alive. As for Koolaid corp., clean up your act because "trick me once, shame on me; trick me twice, shame on you." One only need to lose your customers once.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS WHY HAVE YOU TAKEN ALL THE GREAT THINGS YOU USE TO OFFER OFF THE MARKET. YOU HAD A GREAT THING GOING BUT NOW LIKE ALL THE OTHERS I JUST READ ABOUT.

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEBRING THE GOOD STUFF BACK SOONNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ESPECIALLY THE GLASS KOOL AID PITCHERS. THEY WERE DO ATTRACTIVE AND MADE KOOL AID TASTE BETTER THAN FIXED IN THE PLASTIC ONES OR FOR THAT FACT ANY PLASTIC JUG ETC. HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOONNNNNNNNNN...THANKS. BARBARA C
Date: April 12, 2005 11:16 PM
Wow, my roomate and I love Kool-Aid and were hoping to get at least Kool-Aid T-shirts or pitchers like we had when we were kids. Unfortunately, when we logged on.....a plastic kite? So now we've been drinking lemonade and other drinks..not just kool-aid. It's sad, isn't it? I really wish that they had kept up promotionals like this, since they still carry the points on their packages. I was really surprised and dissappointed. Kraft foods...when did you go wrong?
Date: April 18, 2005 10:29 AM
need to know where to get catalog for kool points want a petcher and glasses with kool aid kid on it? please let me know where to get this at? wait for a email thanks jan
Date: April 25, 2005 10:45 AM
I was so disappointed when i found out what we could get with the kool aid points my mom has always saved the points from when i was little and we got a lot of good stuff too. i had a kool aid hat shirt and we had the pitcher. so my mom tells me to look on the internet and see what we can get with all the points she has now for my daughter and what do i see some hearing aid crap. stuffed kool aid man and a kite!!!! what was bad also was the click here to see "all stuff" link all 3 things!!! HA you need some better items like you used to have!!!!!
Date: May 2, 2005 6:13 PM
WOW. Here I thought I'd go to kool-aids site and see that I needed another 5000 points to get something, like a PS2 or something neat. Didn't they used to give away good stuff? Bikes, cool stuff? I feel kinda neglected. I love kool-aid, I really do...but I expected more from them. Oh well.
Date: May 15, 2005 1:22 PM
I, too, was very disappointed with the "Kool Stuff" that Kool-Aid offers for points. My kids have saved points for almost two years, but have yet to get anything because the things are just not worth it. I went to their website and sent in a note on their "Contact Us" page. I suggest that other people do the same. If you're interested, here's the address:
http://www.kraftfoods.com/main.aspx?m=contact_us/cu_form1
If enough people contact them, perhaps they'll bring back the good stuff. In my note to them, I also enclosed a link for this page. Hopefully, someone in customer service will actually visit here and see that people are disappointed with their current offering.
Date: May 15, 2005 1:38 PM
Oooooohhhh...to make matters even worse, I just went to this website:
http://www.bekool.ca/index.php?&pid=2640
They have the pitcher, the spoon, the camera, the T-shirt, lunch bag, crayons, cooler bag, cup, spy tracker, inflatable chair and backpack for Kool-Aid points. The catch? NOT AVAILABLE IN THE UNITED STATES. If you read the restrictions at the bottom, it states (and this is copied right off of the website): "Offer valid in Canada only. Points from U.S. packaging will not be accepted."
What a rip!!!!!!
Date: May 19, 2005 5:45 PM
These items are rediculous. We want better stuff than a plastic kite or a stuffed kool-aid man. We have been saving points for years, just like the others and have about 3000 pts. VERY DISAPPOINTED!
Date: June 1, 2005 6:06 PM
i have save for year points for koolaid and find they are not wearth the paper its printed on so what do i do with them keep are thorght them away.
Date: June 5, 2005 6:03 AM
I SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS EVERYBODY ELSE,-WE'RE IN THE MILITARY IN GERMANY,I COLLECTED THE BARBIES IN THE 90"S FOR MY OLDEST 2 DAUGHTERS-NOW I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING FOR MY 6 YEAR OLD,HAVE PLENTY OF POINTS-SAME PROBLEM WITH KRAFT COMPANY AND POST CEREALS-STILL HAVE THE KRAFT TRUCKS AND CARS FOR MY SON-(ALSO IN THE 1990'S)HAVE THE T'SHIRTS FROM POST CEREALS-NOW THEY HAVE POSTOPIA CODES-WHO CARES- IF I WANT MY KIDS TO PLAY I SEND'EM OUTSIDE OR TO "NEOPETS"HOPE SOMEBODY FROM THOSE COMPANIES READS THIS....
Date: June 6, 2005 10:01 PM
C'mon Kraft Food. You could come up with better prizes then that. I have saved kool-aid points for years and have been waiting for years for you to offer good gifts. If you don't want to loose customers I would advise you to start looking at the prizes you are offering. I've read these stories and I find it hard to believe how these people are disappointed in the prize offers you have. If you don't want to loose customers I would advise you to start deciding of giving some good prizes. I would definetly be a customer you would loose if things don't get better. Get moving Kraft Foods to satisfy your customers.
Date: June 7, 2005 1:03 AM
Agree wholeheartedly with everyone who has posted here. I wish that the "good stuff" would make a comeback. How hard would it be to offer some actual quality merchandise???? Glass pitchers, etc. What went wrong?
By the way... Anyone wanting my Koolaid points (200+), just email me. Will give em to ya!
Date: June 7, 2005 8:40 AM
I have moved 2 times and each time I have packed up those Kool-Aid points and taken them with me, only to wait to see some new improved prizes! How can I tell my son to hold off on getting something that will only end up in a Garage Sale, and if he waits and keeps saving that it will pay off in the long run with a bigger and better prize!!!!!!For all of your loyal customers who keep buying and saving, we ask you to honnor our loyalty with some better prizes!!!!! We all drink it because we love it!!!! So don't make it a thing of the past, because that prize choice is a great insentive only if they are worth it!!!!!
Date: June 7, 2005 9:03 PM
I agree whole heartedly with all of you who say that better prizes are needed. But we need to right to make sure that the kool-aid company understands how many loyal customers they have that are discouraged by these low class prizes so please write the kool-aid company.
Date: June 9, 2005 7:13 AM
What a joke!!!!!! Kool-Aide has sold out to the big company thing by using cheap trinkets and junk as point prizes. I feel mislead and will certainly not buy anymore kool-aide products!! Anyone want free points to buy the maximum of all three of the junkie prizes?!
Date: June 13, 2005 9:49 AM
Hi, my daughter and I have been saving kool-aid points for some time now, and she was looking for a pitcher and the t-shirts you had in a old order form we have. Also a beach towel, cups, etc. Please let me know if they will ever be available. Thank-you
Date: June 17, 2005 1:32 PM
WOW! I THOUGHT I DIDN'T GET THE LIST OF ALL THE "FREE STUFF" THEY OFFERED!...I GUESS THAT'S IT! THREE THINGS HOW WILL I EVER BE ABLE TO PICK FROM SUCH A LONG LIST OF CRAP! I DID A SIMPLE TASTE TEST AT HOME AND YA KNOW WHAT WYLER'S TASTE THE SAME BUT COST IS 6/1.00 WHERE MY KOOL-AID IS 4/1.00 IT'S NOT WORTH IT TO BUY KOOL-AID FOR THE POINTS ANYMORE. IT'LL BE SO LONG KOOL-AID UNLESS THE PRIZES ARE BETTER!!!!
Date: June 23, 2005 2:54 PM
Here is the CURRENT order form link for USA. The items on the order form is good until November 30, 2005. I got the video now for my son last year for xmas, it is a black & white one & disks can be viewed in color on the color video nows if had one.

Date: June 23, 2005 9:12 PM
yeh, coop brand taste the same and alot cheaper then kool aid the prizes are all crap espicially when you live in canada and the video now is avaliable to the states only, you know we can buy koolaid in canada
Date: June 24, 2005 10:49 PM
My mother has been saving kool aid points for years and all she really wanted was the glass pitcher with matching cups.Now you are no longer offering them, why? whatever happened to all the good deals that you used to offer. could you please send me a catalog at the following address 3264 Carson Ave Clovis CA 93611, if you have one.
thank you
Date: June 26, 2005 2:48 PM
all of you people are whining about the bad choices u have and all of you are saying that they should give a better selection... well give them some dam ideas!!!! they cant pull this all outa their butt by themselves!! do something about it! give suggestions! like... i dunno.. a umbrella or a kool aid man blow up for playing on water or something.im just saying give them ideas or else your cries for better prizes are worthless
Date: June 27, 2005 8:24 PM
Please bring back the little cool stuff I don't need a trip or all that I'd like T-shirts, pitcures, cups you know the little things that made kool aide points fun to collect.
Date: June 28, 2005 12:54 PM
I agree with all comments. I was raised on KoolAid and I have raised my kids on KoolAid. We have always had fun saving points and redeeming them, now it is a joke!! We've had lots of fun over the years with beach towels, tee shirts, glass pitchers and cups and the coolest koolaid comic strip shorts, among other stuff. What happened???? My kids are all growing up, some with kids of their own and if you are not careful you will lose a large upcoming market. I like the idea of giving the consumer something for their effort and in turn they keep buying your product. Keep us all posted!
Date: June 28, 2005 4:43 PM
for Canada order form go to http://www.bekool.ca/index.php?&pid=2640
Date: July 3, 2005 12:42 PM
Kool aid sucks, I'v been saving 5 years, and i now have 1,500 points. Then, I look on-line, and all i see is a stupid kite (its a plastic piece of crap), a retarded plush toy, and video now disks,is there any good stuff!!!!!! Like a bike or mabey a board game!!! Kraft needs to change their prizes, i know I'm not buying any more kool aid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Date: July 7, 2005 8:47 PM
whats good,i'v been saving up kool aid points for 4 years. I haven't seen any prizes worth getting yet. If kool aid suppose to a big market/company then why aren't ya'll offering better prizes. And another thing make it easier to use your points and codes for better understanding. May be ya'll can offer a kool aid sport bag, basketball, football, baseball, and soccar balls. They don't have to big balls just big anough to satify the customers/kool aid point users.
Date: July 10, 2005 1:34 PM
Kool-Aid Sucks! What happened to the good prizes they used to have when I was younger?? I have been saving for years and I try to find out if I have enough points for the good stuff and now there is only a bunch of retarded crap. I mean who wants a frickin kite or stuffed toy?? Do they think we are two?? Come On Kool-Aid Man, you promised me awesome stuff and you let me down. I think I'm going to flush my points down the toilet because that's all they are good for. OH, YEAH!!!
Date: July 11, 2005 1:21 PM
It is very sad. Just like the many comments above. My twelve year old son and I just thought we would go on line to order something with the koolaid points he has been saving for years now and guess what, nothing worth ordering. The most exciting thing a kite. Too bad Kool-aid, especially letting your main market of kids down like that. Get your act together and bring back something worth saving those points for.
Date: July 14, 2005 12:10 PM
We want to use our points for a pitcher and glasses !!!!!
We want pitcher and glasses!!!!!
Kool-aid is....that pitcher!!!!
How can you drink kool-aid without making it in a pitcher!!!
We need a new pitcher or we can't make kool-aid!!
We won't buy kool-aid if we can't get a pitcher with our points!!!
Date: July 18, 2005 11:19 AM
I have been saving the points for years. I went to the Kool-aid web site today for the first time. When I saw the dumb list of prizes, I thought, "I must be in the wrong section." Then, I found the comments. Oh, my! They were saying all the things I was thinking. I'm not buying the dumb discs. My kids are teenagers now. Since I'm a diabetic, I'll just switch to Crystal Light. I'll put the Kool-Aid points away and look back on the website in the fall to see if there's been any changes. If so, I'll switch back to Sugar Free Kool-Aid. If not, sayanara!!!!
Date: July 18, 2005 11:38 AM
I agree with all of the comments posted so far. We have been saving points for years and the payoff sucks. We buy Kool-aid like crazy but now for what...it's not the best on the market and surely not the cheapest.
Where's the tee-shirts, beach towels, game boys, etc?????
KRAFT FOODS PRIZE POINT SYSTE IS A RIP OFF - FIRE THE PROMOTIONS STAFF!!!
Date: July 21, 2005 2:35 AM
I can't beleive my eyes. I have been looking and looking for Prizes from Kool aid. I found this site and seen the comments and i am almost having a heart attack. I feel i should file a lawsuit against Kraft because of this fake advertisement. This has been a long in the working plan to steal our money. I have over 5000 points saved up for my son and cant get no gameboy or anything good. I like the others haved grown up on Kool aid. But for now on i am done buying all of kraft product until this problem is solved. HELLO FLAVER AID!!
Date: July 22, 2005 5:12 PM
Well, Im am not going to complain about this. Yes It is a bit of a let Down, But in the stores they have the little catalog sheets you can Pull right off the rack. Now, I dont know about anyone else but that is fine for me. I only have a little bit more to go for my pitcher!
Date: July 23, 2005 7:25 AM
Unfortunately, only Canadians are eligible to get the pitcher... us U.S. folks have to pick between four prizes that require in "shipping and handling" what's basically the cost of the item. :(
Date: July 24, 2005 3:09 PM
my sons are older now and what better choices of stuff I have been saving points forever and have gotten stuff they are to old now.
Date: July 25, 2005 12:34 AM
please offer the koolaide jugs and glasses again what is available now is not really worth the effort to cut and save points
Date: July 25, 2005 1:18 PM
My boyfriend told me that he had an Oatmeal box full of Kool Aid points that he had been saving forever he asked me if I could look on the internet and find a catalog. I am embarrassed to tell him what I found out about the Kool Aid point scam. This is ridiculous offering this junk as prizes. We need some t-shirts, glasses, pitchers, ect., perhaps a whole catalog with different cool choices or is that asking for too much. Please bring back the cool stuff. Marlene
Date: August 2, 2005 5:32 PM
I expected more from an established name as kool aid. I am truly disappointed in a company that run kid and family friendly adds to rip us off!!!!
Date: August 4, 2005 3:54 PM
Crap, it's just crap. I understand it costs money to give away prizes but it costs you money when I explain to my kids and their friends everytime they want to drink koolaid that we drink a different product because Kraft doesn't really provide prizes or cool stuff, they just provide crap like a kite or a listening ear. Best way to get the message across to Kraft is to stop buying their product, tell them why you stopped, and tell the kids in your circle of influence to stop saving koolaid points and save their dimes and nickels instead.
Date: August 5, 2005 8:31 PM
I have saved Kool-Aid points for years, thinking that I would turn them in someday for barbie dolls when I had kids. Well, now my two daughters are at the right age to appreciate barbie dolss, and they are no longer offered. They should have at least warned the general public that the good prizes were going to disappear.
Date: August 11, 2005 1:28 PM
Ever since I was a little kid I've been saving kool-aid points,But now that kratf brings out crap I don't know if I should save them anymore! They're prizes are so freakin' stupid! What happened to all the gameboys and pitchers. Now I have over 20,000 points and I have no idea what I should do. I'll wait 2 more years,and if kool-aid doesn't come out with any more points......... IM THROWING THEM AWAY!
Date: August 13, 2005 3:34 AM
What a drag. We always looked for the prize sheets on the Kool Aid display and seldom found them. Every so often we check online only to see a rather pitiful selection each time.
We have been waiting and waiting for the good stuff again...alas,it seems it is not to be.
I have been toting around those points for years only to find it was a waste of time. My son is sooooooooo disappointed.
When I was a kid you could get prizes in cereal,send in box tops and get stuff...
In my Moms day,you could get towels or dishes in laundry soap.As a child we had some cups that once upon a time came in sacks of grain .
Even Cracker Jack prizes suck now.
Corporate greed and screw the consumer I guess.
I looked forward to the day when I had my own kids and could see the joy in their faces when they got their prize.
Thanks Kool Aid for bursting that bubble.
Date: August 13, 2005 10:35 AM
I am in total agreement on the pitiful prizes and selections. I remember getting a wireless remote for my kids Nitemdo once, (way back when) and pitchers and shirts and beach towels and other wanted usefull things.
Do they think only KIDS drink this stuff?
Come on KOOL-AID (KRAFT) what am I supposed to do with the almost 7000 points I still have and am still adding to.
I was raised on this stuff and still love it and I just can't make myself throw away the pack without getting the points off it first.
Date: August 17, 2005 2:25 PM
I really wish that they would get mroe stuff for us to get.
Date: August 20, 2005 9:21 AM
It might be a good idea to get kool-aid to post a form for prize suggestions to be filled out by kids, I mean they know what they like and I'm sure the suggestions will pour in. I agree on the prize selection being a lunch bag let down
Date: August 20, 2005 11:34 PM
Is that all that you can get for the points that kind of sucks cause I have like three thousand points what am I going to do with a kite or a plush toy or a video now? if there is anything else that I can get with them please inform me.
Date: August 25, 2005 2:23 PM
My husband and I just went online to see about redeeming our kool-aide points.Wow!!!! What a shock!!!! What happened? I thought that the hundreds of dollars I spend every year on kool-aide and other Kraft products was appreciated by the company. Obviously,by the look of the "cool" kool-aide gifts for our points, I was seriously wrong. What happened to the cool gifts? Video games,trips,towels,t-shirts,balls,pitchers and mugs you used to have? Boy, start making them a little money and they don't want to spend a little back. I now appreciate Mcdonalds and the fast food places. Atleast their stuff kids (and ADULTS!!!!!) want. Kraft, you are making kool-aide a joke!!!!!There are a lot of generic drink mixes that taste almost as good and are quite a bit cheaper. I always buy kool-aide because of the points and I like the flavor. Well,we can switch. You don't want my business??? Ok. I won't argue. Your products are obviously overrated. I hope your "KOOL" gifts don't bankrupt you in any way. We would hate for you to spend any money to show us your appreciation for making your company all it's money. Without us,you wouldn't exsist. Maybe you might want to think about that. The payoff for a little output of cash for good prizes would probably make you millions more and its probably a tax writeoff too. Cheap,cheap,cheap isn't always better.

I'm a 48 yr old mom who has been saving my kids kool-aid points for 17 yrs! My sons went online to finally redeem them since they have saved quite a few. What happened?!! Where are all the "kool" prizes? When I was growing up, you
had all kinds of things to choose from. Come on KRAFT, is this how loyal consumers are to be treated? I am very dissappointed. Can't we even get a kool-aid pitcher and mugs? What am I suppose to do with 17 yrs worth of points? Oh, I know, I'll use them for starter flames this winter in the fireplace. At least THAT'S worth something! Bye bye Kool-Aid.
Date: September 1, 2005 3:30 PM
I too would like things like a kool aid mug, a glass pithcher, a towel, t-shirts and things like that. You know what would really be great is a cookie jar of Mr. Kool-aid man. We buy your product all the time why not offer us good things. Please bring us some great things to get with all our points!
Date: September 4, 2005 4:37 AM
When I was little my mom got one of the pitcher and mugs set! I'm 32 years old and would like to have a det for my kids...and like the rest of the people with comments...you have only come up with toys that aren't worth the money we pay for the koolaid! You have come up with new flavors....how about coming up with better prizes or at least bringing back the good ones!
Date: September 4, 2005 3:42 PM
I TOO AM VERRY DISAPOINTED IN THE KRAFT CORPORATION. WE WEN'T ON THE KOOL AID SITE TO SEE A LOUSY SELECTION. I SENT THEM AN EMAIL TO LET THEM KNOW HOW I FELT. LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS
Date: September 9, 2005 5:18 PM
I'm from Canada, and I just received my kool-aid pitcher and kool-aid cups, my mother is currently making some Tropical Punch flavour in the new pitcher to break it in, in a few hours when its nice and cold I will bust out my new kool-aid cups and drink a tasy delicacy
I can;t wait, like everyone else here I'd like to thank you kool-aid for the kool-aid points system, I'll start saving for t-shirts or cooler bags
Date: September 13, 2005 10:39 AM
I Feel the same way most feel about koolaid. I have points that my dad was saving for us when we were kids and now save them for my kids. I have around 15,000 points, but whats the point with idems like this to pick from? When I was a kid we got things like skate boards,video games,& cool cloths!Now it's not even worth sending in for something.please expand the selection!!!
Date: September 21, 2005 10:48 PM
i also remember as a kid saving kool aid points for "cool" toys, now i have kids and have recently started saving the points. i was very disappointed when i saw the selection of merchandise ot choose from. please bring backe some of the items form "way back when" like the t-shirt and the pitcher and mugs.
Date: September 30, 2005 3:47 PM
Ha, Ha us Canadians get all the good stuff while you Americans get all the Crapy stuff.
Date: October 18, 2005 10:31 AM
I feel the same as most others. My family has saved Kool Aid points for years , hoping that Kool Aid would get bigger or better items to offer consumers. Have yet to see any T-shirts or pitchers or spoons or mugs. Just useful items please. Hey Kool Aid Man, where are you when we need you !!!!!
Date: October 18, 2005 5:05 PM
Can't understand why anyone would waste their time saving Kool-Aid points. I have over 500 and the worthless junk you have offer for redemption is worth the postage I'd need to send them to you. I'd do better stealing from a Catholic Charties or Salvation Army drop off container. Who runs the show their - an ex Enron employee?
Date: October 18, 2005 8:51 PM
I have contacted Kraft about their lack of cool stuff and they said "Keep your eyes open, we're always posting new stuff online". Well...that was over 6 months ago and I waited about 3 months to send the e-mail. Kraft doesn't care one bit. And why should they?? We are still buying Kool-Aid and saving those darn points for nothing hoping they will come out with something. I have over 10,000 points saved up...trying to get like a Kool-Aid Corvette or something. But no, I can buy like 1,000 kites if I want. Who wants a cheesy and crappy Kool-Aid kite??
Date: November 4, 2005 5:48 PM
My oldest daughter collected Kool-Aid points and loved reedeming them for stuff. She still has her Kool-Aid alarm clock. My youngest would like to do it as well but what happened to the selection. I went the the Canada sight out of curiosity. Why!! Why do you offer so many things that kids enjoy in Canada and only 3(somewhat cheesy) items in the US. I just don't understand why we don't get the same selections! Please consider making it a little better for us to the South, OK?
Date: November 6, 2005 10:43 AM
I was hoping they had a nice hd tv or somethin that i can use all my points to get. I cant believe how lame all those items are.
Date: November 13, 2005 3:11 PM
i saved my kool-aid point for a while now so that i could order one of them beach towels ya know? and i finally got around to ordering it and i got on the website to print off a copying of the order form and all they got are them frickin sound sounds!!! THE PRODUCTS ARE RETARDED
Date: November 21, 2005 9:27 PM
Okay, thinking of pitching my points. I have around 2000 but check periodically for what I can get for them - phooey - what a selection.
I've been buying and drinking Kool-Aid for over 40 years - for what??? Come on Kraft - give us something for what we've paid all these years for your product.
Date: November 23, 2005 4:23 PM
Been saving kool aid points for years and would like to give them away. The first to contact me at my e-mail address can have them. They are not cut from the pack.
Date: December 13, 2005 11:22 PM
i agreee with everyone else about how pitiful the site is i've savd points for years and can't find anything to order come on guys you have to do better than this its not right kool-aid is non-expensive but when you add up years of purchasing kool-aid you could have bought stock in the company
Date: January 1, 2006 11:35 AM
I think this is rip off cuz you have to cut them out add all the scores up then when you try to buy something you find out that all the prizes are unbelievably over priced and of poor workmanship. They should let you redeem the points for giftcards or something useful, or fun.
Date: January 2, 2006 1:22 AM
I have been also saving points for years, I have turned in a few and was ok with what I got. I sent off an order form that I just got off the internet spent $1.00 to send it and it was returned to me no such address, so I checked the web again and there is no current order forms. What do I do now, WHAT A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!
Date: January 4, 2006 5:56 AM
KOOL AIDE
Well, i guess im just one of the other many people that were wondering about the points and how you go about useing them. Because when i was a kid my mom would always have me help her cut thouse little points out to order little prizes and such. now that i going to be a mom for the first time i was wondering it you still hade thoughs order forms still cause the points are still on the backs of the kool aide, and im still collecting them thoughs Glass jugs were a hit with the little matching cups i loved those!!!!!!!!!!!!if there is a way to get a hold of those soon??????? I would love it. one of my first couple of things i got from kool aide was a kool aide barbie and a couple koosh balls(Is trhere any new flavors comming out soon?)
Date: January 7, 2006 11:03 AM
I'm a little dissapointed in the offerings kool -aid has. The catalog only offers 3 prizes. The video now disc is the only good thing offered, but what about the player? How about giving that a point value and charge only shipping and handling? You need to get more to offer. Like many others we saved our point to get a great prize like the video system or six flag tickets.
Date: January 18, 2006 11:00 PM
Hey Kool-aid! I have loved Kool-aid for years, I have saved, and saved all those points, we made sure we didn't throw any of them away, in the drawer they would go, and there they sit... why... they are not even worth the dust they are collecting. If they are not going to offer anything decent for them, why do they call them points... is it a game.. who ever gets the most wins... and what do you win.... Nothing! Years ago we got some really neat things, we got a skateboard, gameboy game, cups... oooh now we can get this little radio... and some games that we can buy at the store for about the same price at the store.
Get on with it Kraft.... I guess we all need to switch to "Flav-or-ade" Cheaper and you don't have to save points!
Date: January 19, 2006 1:59 PM
Here is the current form that is good until 2007. Not much I want to order, Amazon has better prices for the Video Now and you don't need points. But since some were asking, maybe someone might can use it. Hope it helps. Another person saving for the good stuff, :)

I want a t-shirt and a beach towel. These are the items i've been saveing for and now they aren't available. I only have one Kool-aid cup left i need new ones. We counted points today and my kids couldn't wait to look at the web site and they said is that all there is? My son said we have a bezillion points, now what?
Date: February 14, 2006 8:59 AM
I would love to order a kool aid barbie, like I got years ago, Kool Aid Pitcher, and Beach Towels.
How can I do this??????
Date: February 16, 2006 9:29 PM
I was saving for something relly nice like i used to get as a child. I was totally wrong!! Please come up with some new rewards or quit putting the rewards on the packages making kids think they are getting something good when actually nothing worth sending for!
Date: March 1, 2006 12:36 PM
I have about 6,000 points hoping that you would put the pitcher and mugs, shirts, game boy, beach towel or anything that would be worth using my points for. All of my kids are grown, and marrried or not married save kool-aid points and give them to me. Hoping that I can get the kool stuff for there kids that I got for them, when they were small. I still have a muticoloered mug set, and any kids that come over to my house want to use only those cups. My children ages range from twenty-three to twenty-eight and I have five. My oldest runs a preschool/daycare,she sends me her points hoping to get stuff for her business. I would like good stuff offered and Retro items. Please!
I also wanted to say 2004 stuff is not new. By my way of thinking that offer is OLD...
Date: March 14, 2006 10:46 AM
Come on Kool-Aid do the right thing by the children.

u can get 1000 points at a time on the invisible kool-aid packages now
Date: March 20, 2006 11:09 AM
This is a bunch of bull. We have saved points for years. We only needed a couple more points for the trip to Six Flags years ago. Now you don't offer anything that my kids would even want. I have saved them since I was a kid hoping that I could get something with them; but Kraft hasn't offered anything in about 5 or so years. We wanted the things that everyone else seems to want, so with this many people complaining why hasn't Kraft listened? We already switched to Flavoraid. A dollar for 12 packets vs $3.60 for the same amount.
Date: March 23, 2006 9:28 PM
My son was so excited when we heard that he could get things from kool-aid points. We started saving them up and now i went online to see if my little boy wanted to buy something. He told me that it was so boring and that you guys got rid of all the good things that you had before. Now my little son is very sad that he can't buy anything good after he had saved all the kool-aid points I am very dissapointed in your company.I am not the only one that thinks this. There are many kool-aid bashing websites. PLEASE BRING BACK THE GOOD PRIZES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Date: March 23, 2006 9:42 PM
I have over 300 hundred points and nothing to spend it on but i am not going to write another comment to yuor company because you dont care one BBBBBBBBBIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a concerned parent as I am in canada and I have been told that we are not allowed to order anything fromn the united states. I have over 8000 points.
Date: April 2, 2006 4:38 PM
I have also have emailed kool-aid/kraft foods to express my disappointment in the point system. Like many others I have saved for decades, and I have A LOT of kool-aid points. Kraft foods sent a reply, but it didn't tell me anything or resolve my issues. So in reading all of these comments I have decided to personaly boycot kool-aid and all kraft foods! Yes it will be tough at first, reading ALL info on boxes and packages for the kratf food trademark and there subsidaries, but it will be done. There are many other products to choose from. If anyone would like to join me, maybe than the Kraft Foods company will get clue that they have made generations of Kool-aid drinkers VERY UNHAPPY!
Date: April 6, 2006 4:05 PM
i've been waiting for the last two years for something worth while to spend my kool-aid points on ... i'm still waiting
Date: April 13, 2006 10:27 PM
I, too, have to agree with the majority of the responses on here. I remembered when they offered video game systems and games... That is what first inspired me to begin saving in the first place. While it took a lot of points to get things like that, it was something worth saving for(game systems arent cheap by no means). I went on the site today to just check out what they had now(I have a LOT of points saved up I never used) and man... THREE items!?!? That is just insanity and an insult to every person who has saved up Kool-Aid points in hopes of redeeming them for a great item. Also, the point requirements for the items I've seen is just... unreasonable. I hope Kraft cleans up their act and returns Kool-Aid points back to prominence, or they might lose a lot more customers than they ever expect.
Date: April 16, 2006 11:37 AM
WHY DONT WE FIND A WAY TO SEND THIS ALL TO KOOLAID AND GET IT OVER WITH... THIS IS ALL STUPID THAT WE JUST KEEP TALKING IN THIS SITE AND NO ONE PERSON WILL SEND THIS ALL TO KOOLAID... LETS FIND A WAY AND STOP ALL OF THIS NONSENSE WITH THE KOOLAID GUYS BECAUSE I AGREE WITH ALL OF YOU WHEN WE SAY THAT SAVING THE KOOLAID POINTS SUCKS WHEN THERE IS NOTHING GOOD TO PURCHASE WITH THEM!!!!!
Date: April 17, 2006 6:44 PM
we were so impressed with the towels that we started seriously collecting them. we are ready but there seems to be a glitch in the program. we'd like to see them back
Date: April 20, 2006 3:06 AM
Everyone I read,while skimming through,are right!I imagine the Kool-aid company is making a good!!!amount of money,still if you have this oportunity to make even more why not do that?A couple years ago I used the points to buy the blue,with sploches of differant colors,bascketball after that he wanted to save alot then after saving he was going to get something really cool!Luckely he's asleep and not having to be very disappointed over this bullshit!!!What of the 3 things is an11 yr. old boy going to spend a few thousand points on,and he enjoy his dedicated work?Please do the correct thing!!!
Date: May 14, 2006 9:56 PM
I'm extremely happy that I looked at the prizes before starting to collect the points for my children. I'm wondering why no one else bothered to keep up to date on the prizes???
Date: May 17, 2006 12:52 PM
I HAVE BEEN SAVING POINTS FOR 18 YEARS. WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL THERE WAS ALL KINDS OF NEAT STUFF. SO I KEPT SAVING FOR SOMETHING BIGGER AND BETTER.

Our family has been saving them for years also! I agree with all the other comments I am reading.....where's the good stuff??? I need to get these redeemed so I can use the space for something else in my cabinet. I was looking for the beach towels or Six Flags tickets. Can you help?
Date: May 28, 2006 2:40 PM
You are so wrong for this. And have took all the fun out of Kool-Aid.I am 56 years old,And i still love Kool-aid.When i was in school many years ago. We use to save the BLUE HORSE, Heads off our school supplies.And use to redeemed them and get all kinds of cool stuff. What is happen1ng? HAS times change that much? IF SO!!!!! Please take away the kool-aid points and the kool-aid fun code. Why do i need them anyway. They are worthless!!!!!!!!!
Date: May 30, 2006 6:55 PM
My child has saved points since she was too young to know that she was saving them. And for WHAT? Kraft Foods should remember where their success comes from! I now buy Wilers or the store brand.My daughter is now 14 and has nothing of substance to show for her loyalty!
Date: May 31, 2006 8:22 PM
Thanks, Now I don't feel like a points saving loser. I see everybody saved points for years just to get something that is worth no more then a couple of dollars. Thanks Kool-Aid for all the refreshing moments you have given me over the years but no thanks for taking up cabinet space while I was saving points for the last 16 years of my life.
I would like to let everybody out there in Kool Land that I am trashing all my Kool-Aid points.
last counted over 7000
yes 7000. did I tell you I have 3 girls who love Kool-Aid??
Date: June 6, 2006 11:49 AM
I took my pitcher to Texas A&M when I went to college. I left it in the recreation room of my apartment complex after using it to play quarters, because I was too drunk to remember to take it when we were finished. I threw up numerous times that night. Anyway, my mom got that pitcher for me, and I miss it.
Date: June 6, 2006 10:28 PM
I agree with everyone, what happen to all the good stuff Kool-aid used to have. Boring now. I think it is time to part with my points. Anyone want to buy them? I could sprinkle them as confetti at my next party. They are pretty colors.
Date: June 7, 2006 5:54 AM
Hi!
I been looking these Kool-Aid items too,and today i find this site http://www.bekool.ca/index.php but its in canada..umh,i dont know what you like about that,but for me its fine because i live in finland =),only problem is ordering and the price!
Date: June 7, 2006 10:27 PM
First I was shocked and then extremely disappointed to discover that my 2,000 Kool-Aid points are garbage...that's what I call the junk that is offered. All the above messages should give Kraft an obvious clue where they are lacking in their marketing department. Has anybody copied all these messages and sent them to Kraft? This website is not part of Kraft so they probably have not seen them. Somebody help out there. Thanks. You won't catch any of my family drinking any more Kool-Aid.
Date: June 9, 2006 10:06 AM
I drink about 1 gallon of Kool-Aid every day for the past 7 years, if not more...You do the math in regards to how much I have. I average about 45 packets every month. The prizes are pathetic. Kool-Aid drinkers are not just 5 year olds. I am a 36 year old high school teacher and baseball coach. My kids at school call me the official Kool-Aid kid. I am teaching summer school now and am enjoying a nice glass of Ice Blue as I type this!! So, I hope that Kool-Aid will take us older Kool Aid kids seriously in regards to what we demand!!

Wolf/Kool Aid Hater: Just to make sure that you know -- this site is not affiliated with Kraft Foods or Kool-Aid; I provide news and reviews of various rewards programs including Kool-Aid points. I'm a long-time Kool-Aid drinker and points clipper and I'm just as irritated as everyone else at how they've allowed their loyalty program to go to pot...actually creating DIS-loyalty.
I don't think they read this message board, but if they do...I think you've gotten your point across!

What happened to the cool KoolAid stuff from when I was a kid. My wife and I have been collecting points for years. Now I can get a cheap kite or a stuffed KoolAid man? Come on!
Date: June 21, 2006 3:51 PM
Well I agreed with everyone with everything they had to say so I decided to take it a step further.. I copied and pasted this entire thread and sent it to the good ole folks at Kraft.. Now wether or not they even look at it is up to them.. I guess we will just see..
Date: June 23, 2006 12:50 AM
I was wondering if anyone would know the point value of a Kool-Aid stock point? They are located on the upper left corner of the boxes containing the packages.Thanks:)
Date: June 24, 2006 9:49 PM
I have about 1,700 points. I kept saving up for a Gameboy. Now I just want something that isn't a spy ear phone and a foot tall Kool-aid man plushie.
Date: June 25, 2006 8:32 PM
I am also upset about the items that a person can get with the points. I use to get backpacks for school, games for a gameboy. and the children that receaved the enjoyed them . Please bring back the good stuff.
Date: June 26, 2006 2:27 PM
I am upset about the kool-aid items, too. It's the same old items. In our area I noticed on some of the packs of kool-aid, there aren't any points on the back of the packages. I even e-mailed them, and never even got a response from them.
Date: July 1, 2006 10:20 PM
i think it is dumb how i can get either a stuffed animal or a liitle ear peace that supposed to make me hear better. i was lookin for som,e electronics and i found nothing. i have over 20,000 points and my mom wants me to get rid of them so i went on the site and im not gonna let 17 years go to waste i think i should at least have more options instead of two.
Date: July 2, 2006 9:10 PM
I just posted a complaint to Kraft foods for false advertisement on Kool aid points and mention to them that maybe we should gey a lawyer for false advertisement.
p.s. thanks for nothing
Date: July 7, 2006 2:13 AM
WTF is a kool-aid fun code used for? This pack of lemonade I'm looking at right now has this code but no points. I went to their site and I expected an easy to find link to enter the code similar to coke or mcdonald's websites. I haven't saved the points since I was a kid and I remember getting kool-aid man mugs. I thought that they might still have cool stuff like that, but all they had was a spy toy and a stuffed kool-aid man. It is a rip off, but they must put crack in it or something because I can't stop drinking it.
Date: July 9, 2006 12:12 PM
i cant believe this!!! me and my mother been saving up kool-aid points since i was about 7 or 8 years old, i am now 18 years old and we have ALOT of points..i feel that we wasted our time saved these points because the prizes that their offering now is just a shame, what happen to the kool-aid pitchers with the kool-aid cups, the t-shirts,the hats, and all that other cool stuff..the prizes you that their offering is not even worth getting
Date: July 12, 2006 5:02 PM
I would like to organize a kool-aid strike. Due to the lack of "goodies" you are supposed to be able to get. WTF happend to kool-aid? Im over 18 and have been saving points for more than half my life. Come on people, don't you remember the mugs, pitchers, even those kool-aid popcicle makers? We have to put an end to the kool-aid point for the children of today. Don't let your kids be deprived of what we once had great. DOWN WITH KOOL-AID forever!!!!!!!!!!!
Date: July 12, 2006 8:39 PM
well, DITTO to all the comments posted here. It must be that Kool Aid is planning on going bust soon and is phaseing out any promotional gifts. Too Bad for Kraft Foods, as product identification is a prime marketing tool. I remember my gift from Ovaltine when I was a child and I still buy Ovaltine (after having to look hard for it for a few years).
One tiny lousy gift with the points my child saves for, then looks forward to getting in the mail, and a life time purchaser is born.
But, NO, Kraft Foods is now going the way of the dinosaur...perhaps, the other Kraft Foods that I buy for the 6 adopted children I have, should be shelved too. Perhaps, I should remind Kraft Foods, that as a middle aged single professional mother, I have money and choices to make. Maybe I should just walk my money and choices to another aisle.
Stingy Kraft Foods...I need to write my Congressman that any tax breaks you get should be revoked!

Wow, after scrolling FOREVER to get to the bottom of this page, I can't see why this company hasn't done something about all these complaints yet. Obviously there are many upset people, and you are not supplying to meet their demands. My family has 1460 Kool-Aid points saved, and now there's only two lousy items listed TOTAL. What's up with that??? I reeeaaally want to get something worth while with all these points. I got the Kool-Aid Barbie when I was little, and it was one of my favorite Barbies. My grandma has two of the purple koolaid mugs, and my sister and I always love to use them when we visit her, even now, when we're 18 and 14. I know that there would be a ton of happier people if you would bring back the good stuff, and add some neat(and not cheap)new stuff. Please do something, and SOON!

I am very sad that Kraft thinks more highly of their Canadian customers than their American ones. Shouldn't we be equal? They get tons of cool stuff and a neat website and we get two crappy things that my 3 year old doesn't even want and a website that looks like a high school student designed it.
About 10 years ago, they were giving away GameBoys. Now they've moved on to cereal box prizes.

I've been telling me 4 year old twins for a year now, that they can save these points and trade them for somthing real cool(like I did when I was a kid). It's going to break my heart to have to explain to them in the morning that all these points they have saved up are not worth the excitment they put into saving them.

I have read all of the comments on this page, and the sad thing is, that all of us "customers" have read these comments, but I believe that no one from the company has. It's a real shame that no one is doing anything about the points situation, and I think that they only give us this choice to voice our opinions, because THEY don't read it or care about how many customers they seem to be losing. I really wish that they would bring at least some better prizes back, hey I'm not looking for a cell phone here, or a game cube, just bring back some excitement to us(older, younger, middle aged, whatever!)
And by the way, where did the kool-aide guy go? I never see commercials anymore with him in it, and they always brought a smile to my face!!
