Update @2pm: Now Smuckers is saying this giveaway will start on Monday, Sept. 28. Does that mean if you previously registered you’ll have to do it again? You’re guess is as good as mine – I’ll keep you updated! Get a free package of Smucker’s Uncrustables with coupon by mail when you submit an after-school organizational tip. The free product coupon is available to the first 20,000 who register for it and you should get it in your mailbox within six weeks of registering. Thanks goes to Coupon Cravings and Frugal Shopping with Julie for prompting me to get this posted before all those free Uncrustables are gone!
Mine was wash you hands first. Get rid of all the school germs lol. I did it at 10 am on the 28th they were out.
They've already received their 20,000…
I signed up, entered a tip, but then they said they were out of coupons. Boo!
Just wanted to let you know it's working right now–7:40am Eastern.
My organizational tip for after school is first off have the children leave their shoes by the front door. Next all folders and lunch boxes go on the counter. Then they can have a snack and start on homework. While they are eating I make lunchs and sign and look at there work. It makes the early morning hours go much easier.-Bonnicranebonni2000@yahoo.com
Now it says "Promotion begins Monday 9/28" when you click the Submit a Tip button.http://www.smuckers.com/promotions/uncrustables/default.aspx
did everything correctly, still got that "specified cast not valid>"
Mines not working either. I've been trying for a long time now. The amount of time I've spent trying I could make 4 of my own PB&J;'s.
I tried to submit a 50 word one several times with no success (I'm on a Mac & maybe that makes a difference, sometimes it does with other contests). I sent a note to the Smuckers people through the comments section of their website; I'm hoping they'll send a coupon for a free box since I was unable to submit through the promotion website.
It took me two tries. The first time it was really short and probably too generic, the second time I wrote it a little longer. Maybe it someone already submitted a similar idea? I dunno.
same problem
I filled out the info, got the "specified cast" error, filled it out again, got the same error…did it over and over, about 4 times, and finally got through. Determination paid off! :)
I have tried like 10 times also. I am getting the specified cast not valid thing too!
just keep submitting and refreshing, it will take it eventually.
I didn't think the contest started until Monday either. But it is up and running. I had to try to enter 3 times the third time it took. I misread. I thought they wanted a tip for being organized after school. NOT..it's a after school SNACK organization tip.
keeps saying "Specified cast is not valid"
I had the same problem. When I read the post on coupon cravings it says this promo doesn't start until 9/28. I think that may be the problem.
Wouldn't accept mine either, I kept getting an error.
Same deal Yaks, didn't take mine either.
I can't leave my comment/tip either. It keeps saying "cast not valid" and my tip/comment is less than 50 words. What a pain! I love those sandwiches too!!! Thanks anyways –
Same here….I tried posting my "tip" numerous times still with error :(
I just tried to leave my tip too – wouldn't take it. Grrr
Mine took! Thank you Heather!!!
Mine took! Thank you Heather!
wrote my tip 3 times and it wont accept
That was tricky! I had to write exactly 50 words! I got a certain error message at 38 words, then a different one at 51 words! Took out one word to make it exactly 50..then got a Congratulations screen! Hope this helps someone!
I have tried 4 times with words less than 50 and right on 50 and it keeps saying "specified cast not valid"
Not working for me, either. It says "Specified cast is not valid." Hmm, I wonder what that means?!
All I get no matter how many times I try to change my information is an error that says, "specified cast not valid." What could that mean?
Just tried to write it and my tip was less than 50 words and it wouldn't take it. I made it exactly 50 words and it still wouldn't accept.
it did the same thing to me.
Tried mine several times with no success :(
I wrote my tip several times, too and it wouldn't take it. I even got it down to 20 words! I'll just make my own PB&J;!
I got mine entered. My daughter loves these so I can't wait for my coupon.
Mine went through first time! Thanks Heather!
Thanks. I was able to enter mine without a problem.
I just got mine.. it must have been a glitch 'cause it accepted my tip just fine :) good luck!
Thanks got mine and one for my mom!!
Worked for me, keep trying, this is great!
Yaks – Try again (make sure your tip is less than 50 words). Maybe it's just a temporary glitch.-HeatherFreebies 4 Mom
wrote my "tip" like 4 times… didn't accept it :( blah
