Mars’s documented free Halloween candy offers were promotions in October 2025—not a giveaway confirmed for October 2026. The available official material does not verify that a free-candy offer is running this month, so treat the older details as historical rather than as a chance to claim candy now.
What free Halloween offers did Mars run in 2025?
Mars announced two separate offers that are easy to confuse: a limited Treat & Greet kit giveaway on October 10, followed by a Halloween-night candy refill through its Rescue Squad promotion. They had different claim methods, timing and geographic requirements.
| Offer | When and how | Who could participate | Limit or availability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Treat & Greet kit | Claim form at MMS.com/rescue-squad on October 10, 2025, from 10:00:01 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. ET, or until all gifts were claimed. Mars promotion terms | Legal residents of the 50 U.S. states or District of Columbia, age 18 or older. A valid email address was required. Mars promotion terms | First 500 eligible claimants; one kit per person. Mars listed an approximate retail value of $62 per kit. Mars promotion terms |
| Rescue Squad refill | Halloween night, October 31, 2025, starting at 5 p.m. ET, through Gopuff delivery. Mars announcement | People in Gopuff delivery areas; the announcement did not describe this as the same claim-form offer. | While supplies lasted. The announcement does not give a number of refills. |
What came in the Treat & Greet kit?
Mars’s announcement described a festive candy bowl, an M&M’S T-shirt, jokes and candy. The $62 figure was the approximate retail value stated in the official terms, not cash or a guaranteed amount of candy.
Is there a free M&M’S Halloween offer in October 2026?
The official material available for this article documents the 2025 promotions but does not confirm a free-candy giveaway running in October 2026. An official Rescue Squad page appearing in search results without active terms is not enough to establish that an offer is available—or to prove that no offer exists. Check M&M’S Rescue Squad and M&M’S Halloween for current terms before relying on a promotion. Do not use the 2025 dates or claim form as if they were current.

Can you still get Halloween M&M’S?
Buying seasonal candy is separate from entering a giveaway. M&M’S lists Halloween candy and themed products in its seasonal store; stock and prices can change. Mars’s September 2026 announcement also named an M&M’S-containing Fun Size Halloween Candy Variety Pack. These products are purchases and do not qualify buyers for a free kit or refill.
Mars separately announced a Practical Magic 2 “Amas Veritas Spell & Snack Pack” as a gift with purchase, with drops scheduled for September 3 and September 14, 2026, while supplies lasted. Both dates had passed by October 8, 2026, so that announcement is not evidence of a current Halloween giveaway. Mars announcement
