McDonald's Halloween Pails Giveaway!

Contest is now closed! Guess WHAT McDonald's rocks so much that you are ALLLLLLLLL WINNERS! That's right! Send me your address to aimeelovesnyc@yahoo.com in the next 24 hours and you won yourself (or for your kid) a pail and a coupon for the dippers!
You may recall my September post I had mentioned my love for McDonald's. I have mad crazy love for Mickey D's! Like wide open arms in the air hug, big red pumping heart love. I mean what Mom doesn't? It is the answer to our everyday, rush by the seat of our pants, "whats for lunch" question. And if your kid is anything like my four year old, it is one of the four things on this earth he will willingly consume. My love for McDonald's isn't only about their yummy, fast food. It is also for the charity work they continue to do. Right now they are asking us to donate our minutes with our families for charity! All you have to do is go to their website and donate family minutes in honor of the Ronald McDonald House, and whalah.... you did yourself a good deed without it costing a penny, just costing family time! Who doesn't need more family time in this crazy fast world we live in!

Since I voiced my Mc'love on my blogs many times, and even posted some silly pictures of myself wearing a bejeweled type McDonald's bad on my head, they asked if I would be interesting in receiving their Happy Meal Halloween Pails for both of my kids! They were last seen in 2001 and now back in full effect! They come with cute stickers to dress up the Mr. Potato Heads, and best of all they are in conjunction with another one of my fav brands: HASBRO! So they sent them to my kids and they clearly loved them:


Rylan also loved the personal Halloween card from "THE McDonald's". To him it was like recieving a love note from Miley Cyrus. Addison is a wee to little to put the stickers on her bucket, but she sure loved carrying it around and putting things in an out of it. The best part is you can take off the handle and use it as a face mask!

Of course I wouldn't be telling you how much my kids LOVEEEEEEEEEE these pails to just rub in your face! McDonald's has offered to give you one too! Six readers will win not only a pail but coupons for FREE McDonalds Apple Dippers! All you have to do is one or all (increase your chances)of the following:
*tell me about your favorite family Halloween memory
*tell me your favorite McDonalds product
*go to this Facebook website "like" them
*go to this Facebook website and follow promps to donate family time for charity
Six Winners will be randomly choosen by Thursday October 21 2010 8 pm est. US residents only! Winner must provide information to blogger ASAP after drawing to ensure a pail delivery by Halloween! Good luck and get commenting!

Nobody lay a finer on my Butterfinger...snackerz (that's why they are in my purse)

Contest is closed!!!! Thanks to Random.org the winner is: #5 Congrats Rebecca. Send me your address ASAP!!!!! So that you can have some extra candy on hand for Halloween, or you can stash it underneath your sofa where your kids can't find it!

I was excited to get an e-mail offering a free trial and a Halloween giveaway for Butterfinger Snackerz. Just as I had mentioned before, they are the perfect little snack for a chocolate/peanutbutter lift up, one may need while trying to conquer the world (or the BlogHer'10 expo floor). I was already sold on the product, so when they came in the mail I gave it to the TRUE test taster. You know the four year old who eats next to nothing unless it is dunked in Ketchup! He liked it! He really really liked it! So much so I had to hide the bag and promise them as treats for good behavior. Meanwhile, I also hide them in my purse for when I need a little pick me up, and luckily since I am an adult, I can even snack on them when I am being BAD! And what does my bad behavior, and my love for Butterfinger get you: Just leave me a comment stating what Nestle treat is your MUST have. One that you would consider hiding from your kids (or your pet, or your greedy friends/roommates). You can win your very own bags of treats just in time for Halloween! Winner will be drawn randomly this Thursday night at 8pm est. Winner must provide address within 24 hours in order for Nestle to send out your gift in time for HALLOWEEN! Open to U.S. residents only! (sorry!)

I saved a bag to give out to my neighborhood on Halloween, as I know they will be a hit! I have given some to friends, and family, and not one person has frowned upon such a delightful item. If you sadly are not the winner of this drawing have no fear! This yummy product is in store now and is the MUST HAVE item in your Halloween bowl!

Now go and comment and WIN!
