kitkat android contest

Kit Kat’s Android contest is now officially live. Back when Google took the wraps off their latest Android dessert, the contest was linked but forwarded you to a generic Kit Kat page. Now, it’s finally up and gives you a chance at winning the Nexus 7 (1,000 available), $5 Google Play credit (150,000 available), or simply a free bag of Kit Kat Minis (20,00o available).

KitKat Android contest prizes

The contest is being thrown with help from Hershey’s and to play along, simply buy specially marked Kit Kat bars featuring out beloved Android mascot, open the wrapper and enter the code found inside here. Good luck, everyone! I know what I’ll be pigging out on all weekend.

Don’t feel buying hundreds of Kit Kat bars and adding all those extra calories? There’s also the “no purchase necessary” option of mailing in a postcard for a chance to win. Details below. Thanks, Kian!

To request a free Game Code, send a 3”x5” card with your full name, address, city, state, zip code, date of birth and email address to: Android / KIT KAT® Instant Win Game Code Request, P.O. Box 760023, El Paso, TX 88576-0023. Game Code requests must be postmarked by January 31, 2014 and received by February 7, 2014. Game Codes will be emailed to the email address listed in the request. Limit one (1) free Game Code per request per separate postmarked outer envelope.

I've been obsessed with consumer technology for about as long as I can remember, be it video games, photography, or mobile devices. If you can plug it in, I have to own it. Preparing for the day when Android finally becomes self-aware and I get to welcome our new robot overlords.

  1. gotta find me a Kit Kat!!

    1. Lol that sounded so wrong…

      1. why? o.o

    2. Ummmm all this Android cross promotion and they didn’t think of making a kitkat app to go with it? OK then…

    3. Terrible execution. I went to 10 different stores tonight and found no cats with androids on them. I even went and had them check the back to see if they were there and nothing

  2. i will go into a diabetic coma once i purchase all those Kit Kats

    1. No purchase necessary, but It could possibly be cheaper to buy the kitkats, i.e. 3/$1 or 5/$2, than to send in a letter, plus less time.

      1. i know but i love kit kats!!!

  3. Is there anything like this going on in europe? Would love to join the fun. : D

    1. The contest is supposed to be available all around the world. I’m guessing it’s coming. Check KitKat’s Europe site..

      1. The official rules state U.S. only. Hopefully something changes.

        1. Just for the reason it is the American Hershey version, whereas elsewhere it would be Nestlé international version. I found this link talking about the UK contest:
          http://www.packagingnews.co.uk/news/nestle-launches-new-android-kitkat-packs-to-promote-google-partnership/
          Less Play store credits to give away there, 50,000, but it’s worth more too!

      2. Cheers, will do!

  4. Certainly the best tasting contest out there!!

  5. I went out looking earlier today. could not find any of these android marked kit kat anywhere

  6. Bummer, I didn’t win! :(

    Than again, I didn’t have a Kit Kat either for the code.

    Double Bummer.

    1. Write in to request a “free”(you need to probably pay for the stamp) game code:)

  7. To request a free Game Code, send a 3”x5” card with your full name, address, city, state, zip code, date of birth and email address to: Android / KIT KAT® Instant Win Game Code Request, P.O. Box 760023, El Paso, TX 88576-0023. Game Code requests must be postmarked by January 31, 2014 and received by February 7, 2014. Game Codes will be emailed to the email address listed in the request.

    1. Thanks! I just commented that I wondered where you write in.

      1. This information appears in the official rules: https://www.hersheys.com/kitkat/android/Promotion/Rules

  8. As with any contest it says “no purchase” necessary”. How do you ask for a code without purchase. They usually ask you to write a letter or something but it doesn’t say on the page how to. (Not that I’ve ever done this, but how many Kit Kat’s can one person buy)

    1. See @kianwest:disqus’s comment below.

  9. I have yet to see any Kit Kat’s with the promo wrapping :(

    1. Ditto, but they’ll probably start appearing over the next few days.

  10. I have to get a break first, before getting a KitKat.

  11. I wonder how long it will take to get these new KitKats to majority of stores. I literally was looking for one last night when I stopped at the local convenience store to get a can of dip and candy bar.

    1. I have stopped at target and Wal-Mart as well as the Walgreen a block from the house. still can’t find any.

  12. Fortunately, this is one of very few candy items that I like!

      Is there anything like this going on in europe? Would love to join the fun. : D

  13. I’ve been to a gas station and CVS, still no luck. Can you guys make a post on how to track these down? I will forever love you.

  14. i was there waiting when the truck from our DC dropped our candy shipment…no 4.4 kitkats.
    my guess is the 4.4s are probably just hitting the supply chain…since the contest just went live can’t be more a couple of days for them to filter out to the store level…probably gonna be a “special” promo with a stand alone display.

  15. Looks like India is just an alien to this !
    No kitkat featuring them
    Well…lol India doesn’t even have an official launch of nexus 4 and new nexus 7
    Still can I enter this contest ?

  16. I have no chance in winning :( can we just buy the damn kitkat android bar/ LG KITKAT

  17. Where to buy these specially marked Kit Kat bars online…..Plz tell me..
