Funny enough I have a fond memory of a windows activation code.

My friend gave me an "upgrade" code for XP, but when you go to install windows and then use that upgrade code on a new install it tells you that you can't use it since it is meant to be an upgrade. After the initial install, I went to "install again" counting as an "upgrade" and then it would accept the code lol I used it a bunch of times.
