omg i finally got it this morning...after i figured out that 9am for them is 8am for me...and around 9:20 it opened (which i guess would be around 10:30 in their own time)...ha that was some fast typing.

Whoo hoo!!! I got in this morning. I started at 9:00 and around 9:20 the contest opened up. I sumbitted my name then did one for my sister. Hit submit and it was closed. It must have taken me a total of 1 minute. How is that possible? It's not like people have their form filled out beforehand then just hit the submit button. Good luck everyone!!

Michelle they will send you a coupon not the actual lip balm in the mail...

this is so stupid...i finally got the form to fill out today and fit submit. And it said it's gone! What? I mean why give me the form if it's sold out? Makes no sense. Walmart here I come.

I got another one today. so far, one sent to me, one sent to my mom. Now I just need to get one sent to my aunt and I'm golden. I have been lucking out. I sleep until at least 10 sometimes later. So the times I randomly get up I only end up sitting here for like a half hour and in that time I'm browsing my daily sites in between refreshes. I just will 'believe it when I see it' I'm convinced they are going to come melted in this scorching heat or not come at all.

Wow! Logged on. .got mine the first try! Said coupon would be in the mail within 4 weeks. .so now it's a waiting game.

It's up now! Just got mine. Good luck!

Whose angry with Goob? We LOVE Goob! Well....we love what he does for us. We are just upset with Burt's Bees. Go Goob.

I do not think that anyone is mad at Goob!So much as they are frustrated w/burt's bees because even though I did get through it is still a pretty lousy way to go about doing a giveaway!Instead of the giveaway being easier to get as time went by(as I thought it would)it has actually become harder because word has spread :-(

Good job goob keep up the good work :)

why are u people gettn so mad at goob ur lucky hes even giving us anything

Yeah I have to agree with the last few people to post about this. I also tried this morning and it was gone within seconds. It is really not worth spending 3 hours each day trying to get a free chapstick. It would be much different if it were something worth more than $3.

I had been trying on and off for the last few days. But today I sat at the computer and kept hitting Refresh every couple of minutes. From one Refresh to the next, less than a 2 minutes, it went from Not up yet to Gone. That's crazy. I agree with the person who bought 6 Burt's Bees lip balm for $5, my time is worth more than getting one lip balm for free. All this has done is get me upset with Burt's Bees and I really like their products.

I think this giveaway is total crap! I've tried for a week to get the lip balm and no luck. I've kept hitting refresh thinking for sure I'd get one. The webpage said that the giveaway hadn't started. I hit refresh almost immediately after that and it said they were all out! I think it's bogus!

What a crock. I was on here and it said it had not started, I hit the refresh button (literally right after, what was it, 5 seconds max?) and it said they are all gone. Like others have said, not worth the trouble.

yeah after I signed up me I went back to sign up for my mom & aunt (neither have computers) and they were all out.

Hey inky the offer is limited to one per address from what I read,I submitted only once for myself and the 4 others I did were for family members w/diff addresses.

I agree with inky

I'm with the others that this is too much work. I had the computer next to me open and refreshed about every 30 seconds. My laptop was starting to get overheat from sitting there open. Form finally came up, I filled it in as fast as I could and was told sorry they are already gone. Three hours of my time is worth more than $3. I figured that being Sunday I would have the best chance. I think it should be limited to one per mailing address, too.

did this happen to anyone else?

I clicked refresh at 11:35 EST and typed in all of my info. when i clicked submit, it said the 1000 was already gone. It was still 11:35! I type really fast, too. It's kind of a ripoff. I sat at the computer for the whole 3 hours and clicked refresh every minute, then didn't even get one!

i think i actually got through today. i did get the confirmation page. we'll see anyway. my luck it'll melt in the mail. lol

Yes yes yes LOL I got one 11:35 EST It only took about 2 hrs of constantly checking site.

I just picked up two 3-packs of this lip balm at Wal-mart at a price of 2 for $5.00! Those 6 lip balms should last me at least 2 years!

I did sign up 5 times of course I was gonna take advantage of it while it was up!Instead of going back every day to keep trying,the first day I sat on the refresh button and then got distracted for a min.and they were all gone! But the 2nd and 3rd day I stayed glued to the puter lol.The thing is you can't do it half-a**ed every day(not suggesting any one is) but instead stay vigilant for one day or two max. and you will get one.And that literally means no pee breaks,no blinking etc... lol.Good luck and I hope every one gets one!

Maybe if some people wouldn't sign 5 times it would last longer:}

First time trying to get anything from this website. Will let you know if I am successful.

I tried it one last time today just for the heck of it. I kept hitting refresh and left the computer for literally one minute, came back, and they were all gone! Linda's right: the Mars candy bar site is way better and at least I know the coupons come in the mail.

I had been refreshing this site all morning, well finally after 11:00 it gave me the option to put my information in and when i was finished it said one will be shipped to me, i hurried up and told a friend to go to it and they were gone already, so they do go VERY quickly

Hey....I clicked and it said that it had not started, then I clicked and then it said that they were already given away. I think this is a scam. What gives? I am so frustrated, it took away my work time just refreshing the darn website just to give me a message that they are gone. ?

This is impossible! I left the computer for literally 2 mins and the samples were all gone for the day! I give up!

This one is ridiculous. Try the Mars free candy bar offer, they give away 250,000 every Friday and it lasts for several hours!

checked at 11:18 today and by 11:22 went to check again and they were all gone already maybe another day

OK.... I was "monitoring" the Burt's Bee website... it popped up that the giveaway was open... I quickly entered my info and hit submit... It came back that the 1000 was already gone !!!! What is this??? didn't I just check and it was closed... then hit refresh and it was open... and now it's GONE..... NOT COOL

Wow, I left the puter alone for 2 minutes and missed out again!! :(

This is so frustrating. I sat here and kept hitting refresh until the order form finally came up, then I typed in my information (at over 100wpm!), got nothing but a blank screen. I immediately went back and did it again and it told me I was too late. This entire giveaway lasted a minute or less!!!! I think I'll go buy me a blistik or chapstick just because I'm angry at Burt!!!

Geez! That stuff goes fast! I checked 5 minutes ago and it hadn't started. Then I just went filled out the form and they were already gone! That's insane!! LOL Oh well, I'll try again tomorrow! :)

Goob- My dogs ate my Burt's Bees chapstick last week. Very annoyed. Not only that, but I threw the rest in the garbage and they have found it two more times!

love it

Getting freebies can be fun and/or addicting for some people. Same thing with coupons, rebates, sales. That's why even wealthy people are into this scene. My mom has money now, but she still looks for the cheapest price on everything.

I haven't gotten a single one yet! Must keep trying, must keep trying...I feel like Dory right now, from Finding Nemo. :P

I agree Michelle: I'll just go spend the dang money if I want one that bad. Crystal: yeah, wasn't that page a riot?(so not funny) If anything I wanted to cry because I was so frustrated!!

Oh Michelle I totally agree w/you and if I had not gotten in when I did I would have given up! burts bees says on that giveaway page that "that's what makes it fun" lol,yeah really it was tons of fun!

this seems like to much work. their lip balms are good, but I think it just may be easier to go buy one. I already feel like the internet takes up to much of my time.

Wow seed that really would stink! I hope you get one or already have :-)

At least you're not in Hawaii and the freebie starts anywhere from 3-6AM!!!

Aw, they're gone...I'll try again tomorrow. :P

it took me almost a week before i finally nailed this one last week man it was aggravating but seeing i love burts it was well worth the aggravation

I was one of the heffers I mean hiffers lol that submitted this to you Goob! I already ordered mine,i got in 2 days in a row like 5 days ago.I can sorta understand why you didn't post it sooner because it's not really a FUN way to get a freebie,you literally have to sit there and refresh every single min.and since it is random you can be sitting there hitting refresh for 2 hrs. a day! I spent a total of 3 hrs. over 3 days on it lol but I did manage to get 5 of them(for myself and family)but I feel more like I earned it rather than it being FREE!

I got it the second day. I spent all morning at work just refreshing the screen and finally got in! (You're welcome to my boss). It was crazy, and I tried to sign up for my mom like a second after I got on and it was already over. You gotta be quick for this one ;) Good luck!
