I can't get through either.

and side note OP I hope Missy Piggy has had a wordrobe malfunction.

I can't get in the site either.
I sent an email to them in the 'contact us' link with my name and address and a short note that I couldn't get into the site. The way I look at it is they knew this day was coming and they should have had their website prepared.

I'm on cable modem and can't get through. Dialup doesn't stand a chance.

I got this when I finally got the web page to load....

We are sorry for any delays you have experienced in securing a coupon for a free Dr Pepper. While we had taken additional steps to meet the expected demand for our offer, the response has been greater than anticipated. To resolve this, we are increasing our server capacity and making a toll-free number available (1-888-DRPEPPER or 1-888-377-3773). In addition, as a result of the technical delays, we are extending the offer and will provide more information shortly.

Thanks for your patience and support.

I was able to get a coupon by calling the number listed above. The website was "unavailable" when I tried to get on. I had a 2-3 minute wait on hold, then talked to a live operator to request the coupon. Very easy. Thanks for the info!

Got mine! Went in at 12:06am when there was no traffic on the site. I'm on dialup.

Everyone in America has until 6 PM EST on Monday, November 24 to get a free 20 oz. Dr Pepper

Great! Just got mine this morning.

The website would load this a.m., but I got a blank page. So I called the toll free #, and got right through.
