Somebody Stop Me. Another Great Giveaway!

Wednesday, December 1st, 2010

If it is December it must be time for more super gluten-free giveaways – hey ‘tis the season.  This time my ever fabulous friends at General Mills have given me one of their fantastic Live Gluten Freely product boxes to give away to one lucky reader.  General Mills has truly been a leader in helping to bring gluten-free products mainstream and best of all their products taste great. Head on over to their dedicated gluten-free site which is full of information from recipes to resources to product information (they have over 300 of them, ranging quite literally from soup to nuts).  Better yet, they have a comprehensive gluten-free product list available online and in a handy pocket-sized version

I personally am a huge fan of their Betty Crocker mixes and I can honestly say there is always a box of Chex in my pantry (I had a bowl for breakfast this morning).  Their Betty Crocker Potato Buds make for quick and easy mashed potatoes and I cannot say enough about gluten-free Bisquick.  I must have made pancakes every weekend since it came on the market.  You’ll also always find a Lärabar, okay Lärabars plural, tucked away in my briefcase in case I am on the go and need a gluten-free snack.

So what is in the Live Gluten Freely product box? Well, I am glad you asked. The winner will receive the following:

Betty Crocker® Gluten-Free Brownie Mix
Betty Crocker® Gluten-Free Yellow Cake Mix
Betty Crocker® Rich & Creamy Chocolate Frosting
Honey Nut Chex® Cereal
Bisquick® Gluten Free Original Pancake and Baking Mix
Betty Crocker® Fruit Flavored Snacks Variety Pack – Fruit Roll-Ups®, Fruit Gushers®, Fruit by the Foot®
Peanut Butter Cookie Lärabar® Snack Bar
Betty Crocker® Potato Buds® Mashed Potatoes
Betty Crocker® Red Serving Spoon

There is truly something for everyone in this package.  If you just cannot wait to get your hands on this package you can actually order one right from General Mills and have one shipped directly to yourself or your favorite Celiac.

Entering could not be easier.  Just click here to send me an e-mail (with Live Gluten Freely in the subject line) and you are done.  How’s that for easy?

Now for the fine print…
Contest is open to legal residents of the United States who are 18 years of age or older and by entering you are agreeing that you meet these eligibility requirements.  Contest ends 11:59 p.m. Pacific time, Sunday, December 12, 2010.

And The Lucky Winner Is

Monday, October 11th, 2010

Congratulations to Reta M. from Texas who was chosen as the lucky winner in my fantastic gluten-free Bisquick giveaway.  Her prize pack is making its way to the Lonestar State.

Thanks to all of you who entered and fear not…there will be an exciting new giveaway coming soon.  Stay tuned for more details as you will not want to miss this one.

Who Wants Pancakes and More? Gluten Free Bisquick Giveaway.

Tuesday, October 5th, 2010

I thought what better way to wrap up my old site and usher in the new than with a fabulous giveaway thanks to my friends at Bisquick and MyBlogSpark.

One lucky winner will receive a really cool (and delicious) prize pack courtesy of Bisquick and MyBlogSpark delivered right to their door.  The prize includes: a fantastic (and heavy) cast-iron pancake pan; a fun pancake “penl” so you can make cool shapes or just pour your batter with ease; and flexible spatula, and most importantly your very own box of Gluten-Free Bisquick.

I have actually long missed Bisquick since my Celiac diagnosis and have been dying to actually give the gluten-free version a go.  Well, it did not disappoint and I made a fabulous batch of pancakes the other day that tasted, well, like the real deal I remembered.  I cannot wait to try some of my other old tried and true Bisquick recipes.  I must dig up the famous upside down pizza recipe so I can give a gluten-free version a try this weekend.

Okay, so you are probably wondering how you enter?  Well, it could not be any easier – just leave a comment after this post.  If you have already tried the gluten-free version of Bisquick let me (and my readers) know what you think.  Enter by midnight (Pacific) October 10th for your chance to win.  The lucky winner will be announced right here on Monday morning.

Oh, and while you are at it, why not head over to the dedicated gluten-free Bisquick site for some great tips and recipe ideas.  My friends at MyBlogSpark are also graciously giving my readers a printable $1 off coupon so you can pick up a box and give it a go.

The Ultimate Giveaway, General Mills and Stop & Shop

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

What better way to kick of spring than with a fantastic giveaway from my friends at General Mills, Stop & Shop, and MyBlogSpark – thanks everyone.  In addition to the in-store promotion where you could win one of two fabulous eco-friendly 2010 hybrid cars, I have a $20 Stop & Shop card to give away to one of my lucky readers.  To win a chance at the $20 Stop & Shop gift card all you need to do is comment on this post and tell me what General Mills products you fancy from the list below – easy peasy.  Oh, and if you use re-useable bags at the grocery, why not share what motivates you to do so?

So how do you enter?  Entering could not be easier.  From April 16-29, buy 5 participating General Mills items with your Stop & Shop card, use a re-useable shopping bag and you’ll automatically be entered to win.  How easy is that?  Come on people, this one is a no brainer.  You get to help the environment, save money with your Stop & Shop card, and get entries to win a 2010 hybrid car.  I am a HUGE Stop & Shop fan and my local Super Stop & Shop has the most amazing gluten-free section a Celiac could hope for.  Oh, and just so you know, when you use re-usable bags at Stop & Shop you always get $.05 off for each bag – very nice indeed.  You can also enter without making a purchase by completing an official entry form at your local Stop & Shop store.

There are two different groups of participating General Mills items for each week of the promotion (see the embedded PDF below for the full list).   Yes, not everything on the list is gluten-free but I already spied quite a few fun options on there that we can indulge in. 

Now for the fine print:
No purchase is necessary.  You can also enter without making a purchase by completing an official entry form at your local Stop & Shop store.   There are two 2010 Hybrid cars up for grabs, and the more you buy the better your chances are to win! Limit one entry per visit. Open to residents of MA, RI, CT, NH, NJ, NY, MD, DE, VA or DC and individuals at least 18 years old. For details about the sweepstakes, see in-store for complete rules.
