Anonymous said...

Beth said...

lol, apparently they were like KFC and not prepared for the overwhelming response...

Noelle said...

I mean really, they don't think about these things?!?!?!

Same here - server not working

Lori said...

Got to where it says Register...then when I click on it. Nothing!

Rhonda said...

Me, too! When I saw this advertised on yahoo's front page, I knew I was doomed, LOL!

There's only so much I'll do for a 70 cent candy bar...so, I'll try later.

Have a good morning everyone!

Rhonda

I can't even get the page to load at all-UNBELIEVABLE!

Dara said...

not loading for me either!!!

Victoria said...

/sigh

I feel like an OldNavyWeekly.com reject...all over again, lol.

Honey said...

It just loaded for me...took about 5 minutes though.

Noelle said...

I get all the way through registration and then i get a server error. You can't get anything for free! LOL

Michelle said...

It's not working here either. Did anyone get it to go through for them?

Anonymous said...

I got one! just be VERY patient

I get to stare at a brown screen for minutes then I get to enter my b-day...then I get the error message:(

Anonymous said...

Just get a hazy looking brown screen that won't let me click on anything.

Noelle said...

MamaMataUSMC said...

did anyone get past the hazy page or do I have to try again?

Jen said...

just keep trying and clicking, you'll get thru eventually!

Jen D said...

I'm getting either a server error or the blank brown page. I was able to enter my b-day once but it gave me an error.

Kate said...

I can get to the page to register but then no security code appears, so it won't take my info! Sigh...what I do for chocolate!

Jenny said...

So I tried a gazillion times and FINALLY it all went through but all it says is "Sweet Relief is on it's way! Check your mail in approximately six weeks." What?? Really? So I guess I will be getting the free chocolate?

Dee said...

I got thru to entering my address info and then I get a screen saying that I already registered today. Nuh-uh. Sigh.

Anonymous said...

I have no security code either. I would scream but I am at work!!

Abby C said...

Never could get it to come up. I think they had so many people respond that it locked up their server!!!

Christine said...

It will not let me click on the Get Chocolate Button after filling out the registration form...bummer!

Abby C said...

Wait, a coupon that comes in the mail in 6 weeks???? Oh for Pete's sake.... I think I'll just buy my chocolate when I need it....now! Ha, ha....

Anonymous said...

Security code...I right clicked where the security code should be and selected show pictures. The put my cursor in the security code box and the code appeared. Now it just keeps saying error on page. This is dumb

Stephanie said...

I have tried for 38 minutes to get this to work...when it finally goes thru it says I had already registered today. Let me tell you between sitting on the computer from 11 pm till 4:30 this morning trying to get ON Q, getting 2 hrs sleep I am about ready to snap!!

Anonymous said...

Yeah! I just got through it - it just took about twenty minutes of clicking through errors to get it. Don't give up girls - be patient for that chocolate.

Jen D said...

I'm able to type in all my info except my first name!!

Jacqueline said...

Ok. I apparently just lost my eligibility for my coupon because I did not complete the registration form within a five minute period...yep...maybe if I didn't get error messages every five seconds.

Moira-Lin said...

The site was VERY slow and I kept getting an error message, but when I went into my e-mail it says that I will get a coupon in the mail.

MamaMataUSMC said...

FINALLY I got one!!!!

Gail said...

Dee, check your E-mail and junk folder to see if you got one anyway. I got the same screen (I clicked my information a couple of times due to lag), and when I went to my E-mail, my coupon notification was in my junk folder. After 30 minutes, and with 12:00 a couple minutes away, sweet victory! :)

Anonymous said...

Yeah! It finally worked. I tried right away at 6:00am and got error after error so I just said forget it for awhile and just tried now and was able to register. It still was a little slow but I got it.

Carla C said...

Yay I got one too! I also tried at 6am Pacific and I couldn't get on. I tried again ten minutes ago and it worked!

Anonymous said...

If you are able to register you should get a confirmation e-mail. Mine was in my junk folder.

Lori said...

Well, I finally got to the page to enter my info and got the security code to come up. Then when clicked on button NOTHING! Then after clicking a while it said you have already registered today. Guess I'll keep checkin my email.

Janessa said...

I love that it says "you have 5 minutes to complete this offer or your forfeit the chocolate" and it takes 5 minutes to load and give you the secret code. *sigh*

Jen said...

I just tried it, and the site is STILL having issues. I entered my birthdate, and it wouldn't do anything when I clicked "enter" or whatever. When I finally got to a registration page, it wouldn't let me submit THAT! Oh, well. I'm so tired from staying up waiting for ON. And, now that I see what the Qs are, I'm not even bothering.

Lela said...

I tried several times this morning with no luck. Just tried again (1:00 EST) and got it no problem. It gave me the message that I was one of the first 250,000 and to check my mail in about 6 weeks. So if you gave up earlier, try again now :)

THE LINK IS WORKING NOW !

Michelle said...

I just got one with NO problme! :-)
Thanks for the link.

Bonnie/AR said...

Got mine too! Had to laugh at the other comments, as I went through the same frustration for a single chocolate bar. Yes, chocolate definetely does brighten my day!!! And I do love getting it for free, but I too was thinking it might be more productive to just go out and buy one.
Took forever for the brown screen to load, and then to get past the birth date screen...like what is it waiting for...then you enter your info...click the button...it takes too long, and tells you that you took too long.
So I tried again and it went through fine the next time. Ahh...chocolate and a nice cold coke.

Victoria said...

At 1:20pm EST, I was able to sign myself up and my DH (on his computer) so...it's working! :)

Nicky said...

Just got one at 1:38 PM EST.

Anonymous said...

The site seems to be working fine now. I just got mine. I guess the trick is to wait until the rush is over.

BM said...

After having no luck this morning, I went back around 1:55 p.m. EST and was able to get one super fast, so they're still available! I'm guessing lots of people had problems with the site so they haven't reached the limit yet.

Also, the e-mail confirming I got one went to my spam folder so check there if you don't see an e-mail.

I'll definitely be trying to get one of these every Friday!

Gail said...

Thanks for letting us know the site is back up! I thought the offer ended at noon (my bad, it's midnight), and just went back and signed up hubby with no problem! Doubly delicious! :)

Trish said...

It's 1:30pm CST and the link is working just perfectly for me.

Kristin Jones said...

Same here!

Anonymous said...

Got on at 3 p.m. EST and got my chocolate. Super quick and easy.

Meg said...

I just went on and got 2! No problem here.

ThriftyPuppy said...

Just got right in and got 2, and it's 2:30 CST.

Jackie said...

Thanks for letting us know. I figured I had missed this one but just got 1 12:30 pst. How did you get 2? Can you tell me if everytime you comment, do you have to fill out name, paswrd, etc. or is there a way not to have to do this.

Melissa said...

Just now signed up (4:15 EST) and still got one! I'm already looking forward to some free chocolate!

Cherilyn said...

God almighty, what kind of server is at work here... an abacus?

okie said...

I just got mine here in OKC, it is 5:06 CST. If they don't hit their max you can sign up till 11:59 PM tonight.

Janet said...

Yippeee....I got mine !!!

Marianne said...

Still available at 5:40 CST. I can't believe it!

mimix10 said...

Almost 7:00 PM EST, and I just got one.
