Well, I called and it plays the list of the recalled cereals then says to "leave your info for a replacement coupon" so I waited for the "beep" - it just started the list over again - never let me leave my info! Grrrrrr I will try again Monday I guess.

For those that called in, did you ever receive any indication that they got your info? I left a message with my name, addy, phone number and email address and I haven't heard anything.

Just wondering. TIA!
