This is an entry from my diary. Please check it and correct any mistakes.

My mum once shared how she met my dad the first time. Many years ago, she was working in a restaurant as a waitress, and, one day, my dad dined there. My mum talked to him and asked him to buy some Coke because she liked to drink it. After a couple of weeks, my dad bought a box of Coke for her. My mum told me that she was very happy because her real intention was to resold it and got some money.

While "shared" is not wrong, I would probably say: "My mom once told me about the time she met my dad."
 
The Coke probably came in cans which are sold in cartons, unless they came in bottles, in which case, they are sold in cases.

In the UK, anything that comes in a bulk quantity, regardless of whether the individual product is in a box, a can, a bottle, a jar, a carton, a pouch etc, comes (in wholesale/retail terms) in cases.
