    We had the Kelloggs All Bran Clusters when they first came out. I live in a very small close and think I was the only one to put my empty envelope out. Nothing arrived the next day, so I rang up Kelloggs to make sure it wasn't a scam. Was told that they would contact the delivery people and sure enough a man came to my house and apologised for the delay saying they had run out of stock the day before and as no one else in my close seemed to want them I could have all 8 boxes!!!
  • We got some of these the other week, no problems and got box of Special K and some cereal bars/breakfast biscuits/whatever too
  • can we fill anything online? or is it just random where this happens?
  • We had this, the bag was delivered yesterday with instructions to leave it out this morning (weighted down) and today we recieved the box of cereal and the biscuits. Both were sealed in plastic xx

    Hiya, we got the special K bag through the letter box about 4pm today.Will put it out in the morning.

    A wile ago the same thing happened and we got a box of Kellogg's All bran clusters.

    Here's hoping they fill the bag tomorrow and knock on the door with it again!

  • my mum had this on thursday
    300g box of special k with red berries and 6 packets of biscuit things
    it cant be an online thing as my mum thinks the net is a weird and wonderful place, but she has no knowledge/experience or broadband :D
    i live quarter of a mile away from her and heard nothing about it

    Well, we left the bag out all day. Now it is gone! so we got nothing!

    I take it back! Next door have just knocked on the door with the goodies! :j

    I think they must have taken them in so they do not get stolen. Live on a busy road.( I have been at work and Oh doing some gardening).

    I have a 320g box of Special K red berry cereal and 10 biscuits - biscuit moments, strawberry.

  • I got some today, too. Plus the neighbours gave us their cereal, so 2 boxes plus the bars.

    Special K are doing a huge marketing push at the moment - it's great!
  • I knew if anyone was talking about this it would be here :-)

    we got a bag through the door yesterday and a tick option for honey nut clusters, or another cereal (don;t recall what it was) we put it out today, weighted down and ticked and they left a box of cereal on the doorstep in a small see through bag to protect it from the wet.

    Yeah!

    I suspect they want the house number to go with the postcode of your road to direct market to people who are interested in the product.
