Thanks so much to couponlady for finding this great promo!
If this promo is anything like last time, we’d all better order our shirts YESTERDAY – before they run out of sizes. Of my last 4 XL shirts, 2 arrived as larges, and the other 2 never showed up at all.
Found these boxes in my local Food Basics today for $5.49
I am trying to send in my promo number from inside cereal box and yet it tells me that when I sign in to try later…..how am I supposed to get a free shirt this way???
I agree with you Dani! What’s going on?
I have been trying now for 2 days all day both days at different times of the day, and keep getting the same as Brian and also Dani. May I ask why do this promo stuff if we can’t get to the sight to put our number as it tells us to. Just wondering if it is a scam or not. Please let me know what I can do at my e-mail addy. Thank you for your time.

Have been trying to submit to get a free tshirt and it keeps telling me to try again. I tried this with the last box of cereal, about a month ago, and it did the samething. I believe they are offering free tshirts but not giving them out. I would call it false advertising.
If it weren’t for liking this cereal, I wouldn’t buy it.

this a scam
I ordered one last week, and got in just fine, they also sent me a confirmation for it. I got all the t-shirts I had ordered from the first batch, although, the first ones I got, they were the size I wanted, but the last 3 or so, were not. I don’t think it is a scam, they are just having trouble with their website
Is this a scam?
Same here I have been trying to submit to get a free t-shirt and it keeps telling me to try later,When is later?
I just tried and same web page error as the others. I did get one through a couple of weeks ago. Maybe they are out of shirts and instead of posting it they make the site for pin# unavailable…..
I managed to order one about 10 days back 🙂
Hopefully it comes soon 🙂
I do think it is unfair that there is no posting of they are gone, because people may be stocking up on cereal in quantities they wouldnt normally buy…
I’ve been trying to get my free shirt for over a week, is this site run by the government or what.
I ordered one last night with no trouble.
Sorry! We seem to be experiencing technical difficulties.
Please close this window and try again later….WHY.. what is this
Lets get this website up and running, there are a lot of people want a free t-shirt for the kids, please do it for the kids.
Sorry! We seem to be experiencing technical difficulties.
Please close this window and try again later………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..ok how about now, should I try now…..
I need a T-shirt I have nothing to wear…….
cannot seem to get on there order site
i think they should take the web site of the internet and quit wasting peoples time
this is bs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! spent 8 bucks on a box of cereal I dont even like to get this shirt
tried many times same crap webb site difficulties.
yup – it’s just like everything else ‘they’ offer – either you can’t find the proper website or you can’t get through and by the time you do, it’s expired…. I won’t be bothering to trust ANYTHING these advertisers offer – it’s just a scam for you to buy their ‘larger’ boxes for more money – I’m done … how stupid we can be!!
General Mills can’t operate a Web site? Of course they can! They just do not want to give out shirts.
where do you put in the code
Is this sight for real, have been trying for a week to send my code but all I get is you people are currently experiencing problems, by this website, looks like I am not the only one.
what a waste of time!i being spend days in this!
don’t worry your t shirts are at the bottom of the box
This is a scam…How dare you General Mills for deceiveing people that buy your product

I had no problems whatsoever in ordering 2 shirts from the above link .
Type the link shown in the ad ( Picture ) .. do not go on the link provided in the blog
The link below definitely WORKS !!
http://www.lifemadelicious.ca/freeshirt
Ignore my above post ..do not type www.
^^^^
Actually only type lifemadedelicious.ca/freeshirt as URL
DO NOT TYPE : www. before it and it will work
Thanks, it worked.
pooooooooo
my kids dont get shirts boooooo
Why do these companys pull this crap ! Been trying for days to get on this site, not a chance. I don’t think they actually have shirts give away but it looks good on the box, buy me ,buy me scam. I say we boycot General Mill for the reason of taking the shirts right off our back. YOU’S SUCK !!!!!!!!!!!
Just type lifemadedelicious.ca/freeshirt as URL ..DO NOT type www. before it & the website will work 🙂
yup I did and it worked fine thanks alot .I now feel bad for bad mouthing I retract comments in my last post
i ordered 3 of mine perfectly! 🙂
This is a scam! When I try to order it keeps saying try later. I guess the 3 shirts they had are already gone! Why have this offer when you can’t follow through with it! Don’t trust General Mills offers again.
Go figure…I too am getting an error message.
TJ – I clicked on what U posted and what came up was Barrie coupons, Barrie restaurants, Mars healthy living etc. When I clicked on ‘Free shirts’ in the upper right it went to a page that offered discounted shirts. What gives? On the GM site all I got was the same as most people saw – ‘We seem to experiencing technical difficulties’. Maybe it is a scam. I was going to get a shirt for myself and my son.
Just tried Gen Mills site again, same thing — ‘SORRY, WE ARE…….
I tryed to get into this site but it keeps coming up try later so if i keep trying all day & night do you think i will get in
It worked for me.Thanks
Just worked for me as well. Regards and good luck all.
I ordered one of the t-shirts the other day,no problem…
I am having difficulty in accessing the free shirt site.
I`ve been trying to order the free Tshirt but the site keeps coming up “Down due technical difficulties”. How can you order it if it is down?
i hope my order will come now. Im so excited.thanks
I just got my first shirt yesterday (red one) and it fits me perfectly! I have another one coming soon (black one) and still have to order the last one… just keep forgetting to do the PIN number as it on the box of cereal that I do not eat! 🙂
They do come, they just take time. As for technical troubles.. no idea… mine worked first time everytime!
i am a kid and really want a shirt but it says tech problems
I went to order my FREE T-shirt but of course they are out. How can you be out and keep advertising on the cereal boxes. I want my 2 FREE T-shirts. NOW
shirts are available once again – I order 8 today
I had called this morning as there were none left and the lady was helpful enough to let me know that @ noon today they were releasing more shirts, limited sizes though – good luck
They are all out again
they only had kid sizes when I ordered one a few days ago.I know a small women that I can give the shirt to
Just ordered 2 youth small…nice Xmas gift for little kids at the boys/girls kids club…
iIt’s sure is a learning experience for next time…ORDER EARLY!
If they only have 340K of shirts, then they chould be only printed on 340K of cereal boxes, not 500K as they told me. Very disappointing.
this is not a scam. I ordered 7 shirts for the kids and have received 5 of them already. Just waiting for the last order to come in. they are actually really good quality and comfortable.
I have tried to get through on this website and very difficult. When I did get through they were out of shirts and said to try again another time. This is the worst promo ever…..why produce more boxes of giveaways than can meet demand, or at the very least give a coupon for another items of equal value(how about a $5 discount on another box of cereal). Shame on you general mills! Get my kids to pick your cereal and then nothing!
I guess the next time that you run a promo you should have more shirts and print less boxs with the advertizing on them.
That way the cereal boxes run out before the shirts do.
Ordered mine Nov 7th…still waiting..how long do they take? It is Dec
Dec 13th.
the site on facebook says they are all out of shirts – there was an overwhelming response – thank you
THIS SUX NOTHINGV WORKS AND ALL I WANT IS A BLOODY FREE LONG SLEEVE SHIRT FROM GENERAL MILLS I BOUGHT A BOX OF NESQUIK CERIAL AND SEEN FREEE SHIRT AND NOW THE WEBSITE SAYS TTTRRRRYYYYYYY AAAAGGGAAAAIIIINNNN WHAT THE HECK THIS IS BULL WHAT A SCAM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
every time you try to order they are having difficuties i give up why don;t they fix there problem and quit waseting peoples time
They should change the name of the site… http://www.lifemadedisappointing.ca
According to the person I was just talking to, the promotion ended 2 weeks ago, although the box says good until the end of February. (“Or while quantities last”).. and they had over 400000 responses… She couldn’t tell me how many specially-marked boxes they had, or how many codes they gave out, or if they might get more, or if they had a waiting list, or well, nuch of anything. She said she was sorry, and said they didn’t charge a premium for their product, even though it was more than twice as much as the same size package of a competitor’s product…
As far as customer satisfaction goes, I’d call it a FAIL.
And concerning the error, “Sorry! We seem to be experiencing technical difficulties.
Please close this window and try again later.”, she said that I should have called them about it earlier, instead of following the directions!
I suppose we could all do what it says on another page:
Please call us at 1-800-767-5350 between (9:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. ET, weekdays)
… and let them know how happy we are with their promotion.
trying to get free shirt not working why
This is what I found on the web link noted on the box(next paragraph), this page is just a blog and the above link does not work. My question is why cant they count the boxes to equal the amount of shirts they have, it is frustrating to waste time to find out it was because they didn’t want to waste any more of theirs on customer service, anyway here is what the web site says:
Due to an overwhelming response to this promotion, we have now given away ALL of our free hockey shirts. As noted on the promotional packaging, quantities were limited. The enthusiasm with which consumers redeemed these free shirts was truly beyond our expectations, and we thank everyone who participated. There are no shirts remaining. This promotion is now complete and we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
I ordered 3 – have only received one so far ..2 haven’t come in yet 🙁 ..hopefully they arrive this week
****************************************
Too bad they print out more PINS than they have T – Shirts ..seems to happen evey year ..maybe once the T – Shirts are all gone they should put up disclaimers in the retail stores besides the boxes that all the T – shirts are gone so that people buying the cereal mostly for the T shirts will not buy them & won’t be disappointed ..the sad thing is that its mostly kids who are the losers in all this 🙁
Sobeys in Cold Harbour, NS, are still filling their shelves with boxes of cerial advertising Free Shirts. Why are they doing this when you have run out the shirts a month ago. Sad for your company and false advertising by your company and Sobeys.
Shouldn t do promotions that u cant follow throuph,very disapointed excustomer….
I wasted an hour trying to get a shirt then to find this!!!!!!!! this really Bites!!!!!!!!!!!
All the shirts are gone and it is only Jan. 3 . There is something VERY wrong at Gerneral Mills!!!
What shirts?? There is a very large problem at Gerneral Mills when the quantities are soo limited.
i will probably be taking my general mills cereals back to SAFEWAY for a full refund and tell them what go’s on here about the free shirts.will try not to buy GENERAL MILLS food in the furture………..@#$%#$$##…
I got my second & third shirt in the mail today 🙂
I had ordered 3 shirts in total ..received all 3 of them 🙂 …each shirt took about 8 weeks to arrive but they all came ..there was also a coupon inside each pack ..that was a BONUS 🙂
it wasn’t working for me for a long time but i kept trying and eventually i got it to work. They were definatly out of a lot of sizes though.
hi;lifemadedeliciousfreeshirt pin code is 8ow2m-5p271-f313. my free shirt.

I think if your promotion says it is on from Feb.28,2011 you should honor your commitment. I sent away shirts from Kellogg’s in the month of June and honored they commitment and sent me, my shirts a couple of weeks ago. I guess they like to keep there customers happy.
Realy??? you must think that people have nothing better to do with our time. Fire the person who set this promotion up!!!!! It makes your company look like its run by children. WHERE IS MY SHIRT?????
I have to agree with some of the comments above, if they have a promotion, and do run out, they should give you something. In the past I tried to redeem a mail in for Kraft, a very collectable Olympic Kraft Peanut Butter Bear Pin. The have over whelming responses, but instead of doing nothing, they sent me a set of 4 place mats, that were actually better that the pin. And I also got a coupon for 50 cents off. Thank was great, and It also had a standard letter stating they were sorry.
Hi, I think this is a scam, i always try just to see if it is true and it always tells me the same, try again, having difficulties with the website
When I try it is always out of stock. The promotion has ended. Well, think about it, if you had to give away a t-shirt for every box sold, the company would go bankrupt.
Contest over same old snake oil salesman WE GOT TAKEN..DONT BUY THEIR PRODUCTS……
Do you few who got what you wanted Congratulations??
For a company the size of General Mills they owe the rest of us some major apologies!!
LL
Well, I got my 2 shirts…both before christmas as my order confirmation emails said I would. I know I tried once before for the freebie tshirts but they were out of stock. There is a disclaimer stating product is limited…..read the large fine print!!
i have Free Shirt of 2 @ order with that Number to sent me how i can get some more Order Free Shirt of Canada Hockey Shirt 🙂 can you sent me back to my e-mail
I did receive hockey shirts after much hassle,now there is a new promo for Canada t-shirts and it is impossible to try to order them. Keeps going back to the hockey shirts or says they ARE EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS. What a joke.
Can you please tell how can iget free shirt, if u have EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS. THANK TOU.
I have entered the code that is in the box several times and it tells me that the code is invalid. What is the problem?
I have tried and tried but the site keeps telling me that they are having technical difficulties… How long will they have technical difficulties???????????????
What a deal, cheap for them. No give-a-way, no cost
O’s will have to be taken off my shopping list.
go to the real site lifemadedelicious/cheergear
smartcanucks dosen’t cut it
Whats up with this? I just bought this cereal and offer is is good until July 15, 2015. This promotion is misleading and General Mills should be accountable for this. Are you out of stock even before the promotion starts or did not have the the intention to fullfil your obligation to the consumer?
what a bunch of crap
don’t understand this? Just bought 4 promotional units and try to apply this promotion and nothing. Its a liar or what? I’m disappointed because I am a loyal customer about this product. Now your obligation to me like a consumer, how will be? or how can I call This? FAKE……
how can I order a t-shirt for a friend of mine. from the feeling ;lucky advertisement
