Mars chocolate is joining in on their own version of the stimulus package, by providing free candy bars of Mars, M&Ms, Snickers, Twix, Dove and 3 Musketeers every friday from May 8th through the summer to September.

This will mean that every Friday will be Free Chocolate Friday!

If Oprah can do it with KFC, it seems everyone wants a piece of the action.

Customers have to request a coupon via the RealChocolate.com website to redeem their candy.

I wonder if they have organic chocolate. KFC has gone more healthy with Kentucky Grilled Chicken, be nice to see Mars step up to the plate.

I Have tried for 2 hours to get in the site to get the free chocolate. I even made it to the part where you type in your birthday. Then when i finally made to the next section, I could not fill out the security image because it never gave it to me. Very frustrating to say the least.

As of 8:20am PST the coupon seems to be overloaded with requests and won't open - hopefully this won't continue all day as free chocolate is what we all want!

Of course, everyone is now excited to get free chocolates on Friday. It is pretty surprising that in times of recession wherein businesses are struggling to stay on their track, there are still some company who are able to give free of their products. The Mars Real Chocolate Relief Act gives out chocolate because it will perk people up, as well as their sales, and it's already being endorsed by Neal Patrick Harris, TV's Doogie Howser, MD. No military loans needed, it's free. Chocolate is known to act as a natural antidepressant, and a moderate amount of dark chocolate is good for you, packed with antioxidants. You won't need mortgage loan modification if you use realchocolate.com for your candy needs.
