Recently, collecting Luckin Coffee pickup code stickers has become a trend on social media platforms. Many people specialize in creating collection booklets by removing the meal code stickers from the purchased drinks and placing them in the booklets.

On August 29th, Mr. Liu, a resident of Beijing, told Jimu News reporters that he has been collecting meal codes since February this year and currently has 750. His goal is to collect all 999 stickers.
Mr. Liu said that he had a hobby of collecting items before, and because he often orders a Luckin Coffee at work, he had the idea of collecting meal code stickers in February this year and has been persisting until now.

On Mr. Liu's personal account, he often shares his collection progress, from a few pictures at the beginning to almost filling the entire collection book now. It is understood that the drinks sold in Luckin Coffee stores are arranged in order of order, from number 1 to number 999, and then repeated, so the maximum pickup code is only number 999.
Because I basically have a glass of iced Americano every day, and later my colleagues would also help collect orders together. At first, there were new numbers, but later when I drank too much, I kept repeating the old numbers. "Mr. Liu said that he wouldn't order just for one number, he was purely" collecting by chance ". When he encountered a new number, he would put it in, and if there were duplicates, he wouldn't. As of August 29th, there were already 750 orders.
In order to organize the meal code stickers, Mr. Liu purchased a collection booklet online and carefully peeled off the stickers from the beverage cup before putting them back into the booklet. In addition, he also made a list of A4 paper serial numbers, and whenever a new number is received, he will use a colored pen to mark a number on it, which is also convenient for comparing the current collection progress.
The reporter noticed that many netizens on short video platforms have also started collecting meal code stickers. Mr. Liu stated that his goal is to collect the complete 999 number.

Netizens have commented in the comment section, saying, 'Each generation has its own stamp collection' and 'Collectibles are witnesses to continuous weight gain'. Some netizens also asked for advice on the technique of tearing it off completely.
On the morning of the 29th, the reporter contacted the official customer service of Luckin Coffee, and the staff said that the maximum number for the pickup code in the store is three digits, so the largest number on the sticker is also 999. However, Luckin Coffee has not organized any activities similar to collecting meal code stickers. We thank customers for their love and support for Luckin Coffee.
