Coupon: Free Mars Chocolate Candy
Beginning at 9 am on May 8, Mars is giving away a quarter of a million free coupons for Mars chocolate candy. Now the only question is: Twix, Snickers, or 3 Musketeers? Oh boy, I can already tell it’s going to take me hours to decide!
Now that’s a SWEET deal!
G-O-O-B!!!!! what are you doing to my diet?!! LMAO
sure now my printer has to not be working ughhh i am so in wanting chocolate right now an i am with michelle i dont think my fitness coach would approve this apart of my diet lol
Yay chocolate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great deal
wish my printer was working
I want candyyyyyyy!! shoot, its not may 8th yet!
So the limit is 250,000, and it starts at 9am Eastern. which means for me, 6am Pacific. I’m sure i’ll miss this one *yawns*
At least it’s 6am for you. It’ll be 3am here in Hawaii!!
This is awesome. I love me some candy. So whats the limit in getting one? Like 1 per email or something?
1 hour exactly remaining!
I’m getting an error message.
error message too!
what a horrible service this is giving us. Error message if these sites cant handle it why do they even promote things like this?
Apparently this deal is crashing MARs servers….on top of the Coke Rewards Coupons this is two deals in two days that aren’t working.
grrrr….
Error message here too. I was able to get onto the site a few minutes before 9AM, but when I clicked to register for the free candy… error.
Darn errors… I wanted to go get my candy bar at lunch time.
Earth to Mars–Earth to Mars: Are you “Martians” for real or you just an “error”??
What are you people complaining about. It’s Free. Sometimes we have to wait for free things.
Woke up early for this one.
6 pm in California
I haven’t got mine yet either
error message here too:( What we won’t do for free candy!
LuLu….6pm or do you mean AM
See it’s so early, that I don’t even know if it is day or night!
Same thing with me too,error code.and I clicked register the instant that it appeared and so did how many others lol,I did get back to it though and could have sworn that it said there was no more candy!
LOL….it’s okay….I wish it were 6pm already.
The main page of this site just came up for me – but then an error message when I tried to get the coupon. Now I can’t get back in… guess we have to keep trying.
I got all the way to “enter your birthdate” then an error message
well I can just go back to what I usually do to get free stuff,I try new things all the time and when I get something I don’t like I just complain,you would be surprised at what they will give you.As a matter of fact I went into my bathroom the other day and could only find 2 things in there that I actually paid for lol.
I got an error message at 7:30 a.m. in Denver…now my mouth is watering for a Snickers bar.
I’m so hungry.
I finally got mine. It will allow you to register up to 4 per household.
It doesn’t say how many have registered. Keep trying.
getting error message here in Louisiana at 8:31 am cst.
boo. hiss.
Apparently the dumb bastards at Mars Inc cant keep a web site up. As soon as the offer started I went tp apply for the offer and 29 mins later , all the site says is not found 404 error, no page. I tried it on 3 browers and two different computers. A 21 billion dollar sales company and the dumb bastads cant keep a web site up. Good luck getting in cause it aint working…..5/8/09 931am
It took a long time and many, many error messages, but I finally got through! Says it will take 6 weeks and to watch my e-mail. Hope it really comes through!
error message error message, geez you know I must like chocalate even better when its free
It’s going really slow for me as well. The good thing is with 250,000 of these available, I think it’s safe to say we can wait a few hours for the traffic rush to die down and not have to worry about them running out of coupons.
Judy, you give me hope. I was about to give up – thinking that in this amount of time, surely I am not in the first 250,000.
funny when I initially went on I was having flashbacks of the allure and then I thought “nah” A company this size it won’t be a problem lol yet here I sit approx. 200 error msgs. later and 50 mins. wasted and it’s same old same old for me.
I can access the site (rarely) but when I do i totally greys out and that prevents me from clicking on anything. It’s weird. Is anyone having the same problems?
I got that a couple of times too. Once I actually got the form but the security code did not show, and it just gave me an error when I tried to submit it. URGH!
I entered all my info and all I need to put in is the security code. And, it won’t give it to me.
not able to access for the coupon. they give you 5 minutes to register and it always expires before i am able get the code to continue.
I can get as far as sighnin up but when it comes to the security code..I have an x/ tried several times and still come up with no code..Any idesa..Im thinkin they’ve made the quota for the day….Hmm
I finally got the code, entered it and hit submit.
Then……… another error message. I had to “X” out!
Mars Inc. has had their servers crash so they tell me. It hasnt worked since it was to start at 9am. They are working on it. Lets all print up our free KFC coupons and go eat, here the restaurants all ran out of chicken. Maybe Mars and KFC should merge.
Don’t complain too loudly about KFC, or nobody will offer us freebies anymore!
That would be a sad day in America!
got through… FINALLY!
I’ve been at it for one hour and thirteen minutes now. Will I give up??????
I got to the sign up page and it would not let me do anything…..I might give up too
It took me 1 hr and 20 mins…..and I got through….hang in there.
At first my security code was not showing….and then..surprise!
It’s sad that we would wake up at 6 a.m. and spend hours to retrieve a free coupon for a bar of chocolate candy but we won’t even take the free gift of salvation that has already been paid for, and is given daily and at any time night or day with no hassle or delays.
Back off Rosalie,it’s a candy bar not a way of life.
oh please
I can’t even get past the DOB page >,<
What is weird is……… a second before the DOB box pops up, the page says that there is no more candy.
What is up with that??????
i got it! took me 35 minutes of trying to get past the error messages, but i got through twice and signed up for a coupon for me and my husband. we got confirmation emails already. i have to do this every friday….
One hour and fiftyone minutes………
no candy!!
Good things come to those who wait! Finally after 1 and a half hours I finally got through. Persistence and a severe sweet addiction finally paid off.
I kept getting error message too. Then about 5minutes later I received an email telling me to expect my coupon by mail in about 6 weeks.
hey lulu thats what i said earlier and it was doing that at 9:02 a.m
I had an email too! Wow!!!!
lol wow its so sad that some people waste all this time for a .50 cent candy bar…..
bummer, at sign up page now and can’t click on anything…not meant to be
Crystal,
I had read your post early this morning, but I didn’t know what you were talking about until I say it myself.
Weird, huh???
different Crystal, this is the 1st time I posted
CHOCOLATE!!!!!
CHOCOLATE!!!!! YUMMY
YUMMY IN MY TUMMY!!!!
Crystal from post #63
George………….
love your spunk!!!!
I did one for me and my husband. I got through on his and it wouldn’t take his registration and then it told me it was too late, that the five minutes was up. I did mine about 30 minutes before his and I’m still waiting for it to accept my registration. Frustrating.
will the real crystal please stand up.
MY FAVORITE because of the almonds.

It doesnt say there is no more candy….its says there is no chocolate better than mars
Who wants to guess how many total work hours are being lost throughout the country right now while thousands of people try to print out this coupon?
Can’t get past the birthday page, why didn’ t they send me reminder email as promised yesterday!
Goob, printing?????
My email said that they would send me the coupon in six weeks.
Yep says it comes in the mail.
I’ve never seen so much comments before… Got mine coming in six weeks…
It took a while, but mine went through!
i FINALLY GOT IN AND FILLED OUT THE FORM AND IT SAYS U HAVE 5 MINS TO FILL IT OUT. I CLICK ON ENTER AND IT TELLS ME NO WEB SITE IS FOUND. I GIVE UP.
Look at the KFC dinner comments….
Last time I looked, it stood at 125.
Finally got mine. YEAH!!!
I got a new problem. Whenever I get to the DOB page I can’t seem to click on on the verify button! I want my free chocolate! Don’t judge me!
Woo hoo, I finally got it. It was no longer about the chocolate, but being determined to get through!
I’ve been able to register once.
Who’s judging. I’ve be at it for three and half hours.
Marvin- there are problems at all stages. Keep trying until you receive the confirmation email.
figures-I get all the way to the security code,(after numerouus trys) and then it will not let me finish typing the security code.
finally after many tries and 40 minutes later I finally got all the way thru
I just tried again and actually got an application this time with no trouble filling it out,no prob with sec. code and then it said I had already registered today funny since that was the first app. I got lol

They ask for your birth date because the Terms and Conditions limit this offer to individuals 13 and older.
1:54 got right thru. Why did I waste an hour this morning?
2:34 PM Eastern. Servers are running great. No delay.
Finally was able to get thru…and your right I sign all my family up for a coupon using their email addys…but funny thing is…it wouldnt let sign up..statin I already registered today..how could that be when I never got past the security code this morningand never got to the page that said would be arriving in 6-8 weeks…one of lifes mysterys I guess….lol
These are still available I just got mine.
I just got mine, no problem. And I even read the terms and conditions. We can do this every week until Sept, but only 4 per person. Let’s see if can crash it next week.
Its’ still working I did 3.
cant wait the 6 weeks, told my honey to buy me a chocolate pie on his way home from work!
seems to be working just fine now!
It worked 3 times for me, no problems at all.
Hey guys just wanted to let some ppl know that this offer is not 4 per person but 4 per household:That means that if you have 3 kids + yourself and you registered for a coupon for all 4 of you,then that’s all you are allowed to receive for the entire promotion here’s the rules I copied:Limit: one (1) Coupon per email address per Friday and four (4) Coupons per household during the Offer Period. If Sponsor determines that any registered individual has exceeded the Four-Coupon-Per-Household limit, then the Coupons in question will not be awarded.
Got thru…said to come back on May 15.
This offer is available evey Friday through September. I started trying just after 9AM and got error messages everywhere along the way to completion throughout the morning. About 3 PM I finally got all the way through. I received a comfirmation email shortly after stating coupon will arrive in approx. 6 weeks. Each email address can win up to 4 times during promotion – May through September. Pace yourself – wait until afternoon when trafic dies down, because people gave up. Also, there will be a lot less people trying in the later months than there are now, at the beginning.
thats a sweet deal
