Giveaway: Ocean Spray Fruit Snacks Prize Pack! 4 Winners!

By Mindi Cherry on January 22, 2012
in Giveaways


Fruit snacks have long been a staple in my home. I’m not crazy about it, but my kids love them.

Because they love them, I am always looking for ones with less sugar, more vitamins (yes – I know that they get the most vitamins from eating REAL fruit…..try telling that to a 4-year old when you are late for 2 sports practices for your older children and she is laying in the middle of the kitchen floor screaming about how she is going to DIE if she doesn’t eat fruit snacks RIGHT NOW. This is NOT the time for a “teachable moment”, unless you want to teach your older children that the 4-year old rules the house!)

Hennyway….

We have always stuck to one particular brand of fruit snacks, mainly because the combination of sales and coupons makes them the least expensive. However, our stockpile of that brand is quickly dwindling and I have been looking at other brands. Many factors go in to that..cost, coupons, etc.

I admit that I had never tried the Ocean Spray Fruit Snacks before, but once our package came, I had to hide them from my kid so that they wouldn’t eat them all at once. They LOVE them!

  • Made with real fruit juice and natural colors* and flavors.
  • 80 calories, gluten free and contain 100% of the Daily Value of Vitamin C.
  • Available with year round Double Box Tops.
  • You can even get a $1.10 of 2 Ocean Spray Fruit Snacks coupon (while supplies last)

And now My Blog Spark has given me a 4 Ocean Spray Snack Packs to give away! Each of the 4 winners will receive 6 boxes (3 of each variety) of Ocean Spray® Fruit Flavored Snacks

Below you will see a simple widget. If you aren’t already logged in to Facebook, it will ask you to log in to your Facebook account (don’t worry – it is completely secure). Simply use the widget to enter to win! Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy!

Giveaway: $100 Carters Gift Card! #wingiveaways

By Mindi Cherry on November 21, 2011
in Giveaways


When I heard that Carter’s was joining the Win Giveaways lineup, I immediately started singing the jingle “If they could just stay little, ’til their Carter’s wear out….”.

With 3 children, Carter’s has been a HUGE part their lives.  I honestly think that, for all 3 of my children, I had every stitch of clothing that Kohl’s sold in the Carter’s “Just One Year” collection.  The footed sleepers were buttery soft on the rack, and just got softer with each wear.  I never had a child complaining/crying/fussing about their clothes like I had with many other brands that were in their drawers (and frankly?  those other brands were [very generous] gifts from other people…when I bought clothes for my babies, Carter’s was my first choice!) I was THRILLED when my 3rd child was a girl…..because then I got to buy all those adorable outfits in pink and lavender!

This Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Holiday Season, Carter’s has some AWESOME deals online!

  • Shop Online  - Save 50% site wide and in stores, and receive FREE shipping on all Carter’s and OshKosh B’Gosh orders of $50 or more, no coupon required.Note: This excludes clearance, bath and body care, Melissa and Doug toys and Carter’s at Home as well as Doorbusters.
  • Sign up For Emails - Get Deals in your inbox. Get special promotions delivered right to your inbox every day during the Holiday season. This EMAIL LIST IS SEPARATE from the Carter’s promotional email list. Sign up for this SPECIAL list to receive these seasonal notifications starting 12/1/11.

One of the HOT seasonal items are Carter’s Fleece PJs, Activewear, Cozy Outfits and more. In fact, November is FLEECE MONTH! These are the exact same items that I loved to put on my children…they kept them warm and were SO soft and stylish! If you are shopping for some gifts or just for your own children, you NEED to check these out!

And now Carter’s has given me a $100 Gift Card to give away!

To enter to win (each counts as a separate entry, so leave a separate comment!)

1. Leave a comment letting me know what is one item is on your wish list from Carter’s Holiday Gift Shop

Giveaway: Bertolli Meal Soup + Mario Batali Soup Pot #wingiveaways

By Mindi Cherry on November 20, 2011
in Giveaways


When the weather is cooler, I turn in to a soup fanatic! I love sitting at my desk or curled up on the sofa with a cup of hot soup.  Bertolli has recently come out with Bertolli Meal Soups and I had a chance to try them. Bertolli products have been a staple in our home…..their authentic Italian-inspired foods are made with only the best quality ingredients that come straight from Italy.

Typically, I can taste a canned or frozen meal a “mile away”, but the Bertolli Meal Soups really did taste just as good as homemade. They are available in 4 flavors right now and with luck, they will add more:

  • Tomato Florentine & Tortellini with Chicken - Cheese-filled tortellini, white meat chicken, spinach and tomatoes in a rich tomato bisque with a hint of basil.
  • Tuscan-Style Beef & Vegetables - Tender beef, mushrooms, yellow squash, zucchini, carrots and celery with bowtie pasta in a savory broth.
  • Chicken Minestrone - Roasted white meat chicken, pasta, zucchini, yellow squash, carrots and celery in a savory chicken broth.
  • Roasted Chicken & Rotini Pasta -  Roasted white meat chicken, beans, zucchini, yellow squash, carrots, tomatoes, and pasta in a hearty vegetable broth.

I actually tried 2 flavors – the Tomato Florentine as well as the Chicken Minestrone. Both were hearty enough for a meal and delicious!

Side note: the bags contain 2 generous servings, so if you are buying them for a family meal, you may want to grab an extra bag!

And now Bertolli has given me a Bertolli Prize Pack to give away!  The Prize Pack Includes:

  • All Clad Stainless Steel Ladle
  • Mario Batali Soup Pot
  • Branded Freezer Bag
  • Free Product Coupon to try the new Bertolli Meal Soup

To enter to win (each counts as a separate entry, so leave a separate comment!)

1. Leave a comment letting me know which Bertolli Meal looks best to you..

Giveaway: Rockboard Original Scooter ($199 Value) #wingiveaways

By Mindi Cherry on November 20, 2011
in Giveaways

How cool is this Rocketboard scooter?  This isn’t your “normal” Scooter, the Rockboard Scooters are a Hybrid meaning that you can use this scooter in two ways: you can use your legs to Push the Scooter along, or you can use the Exclusive Rockboard Scooter Propulsion Technology which allows you to Rock Up and Down while you are moving in order to propel the scooter. The faster they rock up and down while going for a spin, the faster it will go!

As a Mom of two boys who are only getting older each year, I can appreciate the cool factor of something like this for older boys.   Since it can hold a weight up to 200 lbs, even Brad can get in on the action (and he did!)

The Rockboard Scooter comes in 2 options: You can pick up the Original model, available in a variety of colors, which is made for the bigger kids and adults weighing over 90 pounds. Or, the Mini model is made for younger kids weighing up to 90 pounds.

Product Features

  • 2-in-1 scooter that combines shredding scooter with kick scooter
  • Advanced Rockboard propulsion technology with steel power-drive chain
  • Rear spring-enhanced suspension creates smooth ride on unforgiving pavement
  • Nylon-reinforced spokes and super-tough urethane wheels
  • Folds for easy storage; adjusts from 36 to 46.5 inches tall; 90-day warranty

You can purchase the Rockboard Scooters at Target.com!

And now Rockboard Scooter has given me a Rockboard Original Scooter in white (MSRP $199) to give away!

To enter to win (each counts as a separate entry, so leave a separate comment!)

1. Leave a comment letting me know your favorite Christmas Toy when you were growing up.

Giveaway: $100 Dayspring Gift Card #wingiveaways

in Giveaways

Dayspring products are designed to be inspirational and offer encouragement through all the times of our lives.  While they are best known for their cards in the store, they also offer a just-as-beautiful line of gifts, home decor, jewelry and art.

I was sent a selection of Dayspring products to try and I was impressed with the quality of the products!  The colors and styles were simple and elegant and would fit with almost any home decor!

Ever Grateful – Memo Board With Easel:  a simple way to keep in touch with the family, pass on messages or just jot down reminders. It can be displayed on a wall or on the counter on the included easel.  At the bottom of the board is the Bible passage “Let there be thankfulness to God.  Ephesians 5:4 NLT”.  Use standard erasable markers and simply wipe clean with a cloth!

Ever Grateful – 10″ Taupe Vase:  the perfect size vase for smaller bouquets or just to display a few stems.  The sunburst design on 2 sides symbolizes the generous blessings of God in the simple things in life.  The neutral taupe color will fit in to almost any decor.

Ever Grateful – 4 Piece Wasabi Place Setting: being thankful for the blessings in our lives shouldn’t just occur the 4th Thursday of every November…it should be an everyday thing. This beautiful place setting will create an atmosphere of thankfulness each time your family and guests sit down at your table. The complementary colors and designs on each piece of dinnerware make the place setting come together in an extraordinary, fashionable manner.

Beyond the Ever Grateful Collection, Dayspring has a full line of products that that are simple, elegant and serve as a reminder of your faith. Be sure to check out the Christmas decor section….I am absolutely in love with the Christmas Carol Tree!

Way Basics Peel, Stick, Done! from Way Basics on Vimeo.

If there is one area in which my entire family can use some help, it’s in organization. Running a business from home with 3 children under the age of 10 can make for quite a bit of craziness.

Way Basics is all about good, practical, and simple products. They are easy to assemble, timeless in design, and practical for any purpose in your life. They care greatly about the environment and have made their products sustainable by using zBoard, a recycled paperboard that’s just as strong as particle board, yet 62% lighter!

All their products are formaldehyde free and VOC free so it’s safe for your family and our environment. To assemble the zBoard storage products, simply peel, stick, done! That’s right – they are tool free and hardware free. See it to believe it.

With Christmas around the corner, these products would be a great gift item and storage for all the gifts to come They can be used as modular storage for kids’ rooms, home office, closets and more.

And now Way Basics has given me a set of 5 Way Basic storage cubes to give away!

Giveaway: $100 Lands End Gift Card #wingiveaways

By Mindi Cherry on November 16, 2011
in Giveaways

What can I say about Lands’ End? They have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.  From the classic clothing styles to their signature tote bags (I have about 7 of them and use them for everything from a laptop bag to a beach bag to a grocery bag!), there is something for everyone on their site.

For so long, you could only get Lands End through their catalog (this was back when I was a kid – when dinosaurs ruled the Earth) or online.  But a few years ago, Lands End products became available in Sears stores nationwide.  It was great for me, because I was able to get gifts for my nephews and my brother-in-law, while still able to see the clothes in person!

Lands’ End is also very generous with the coupon codes!  Make sure to check my Online Coupons Page for the latest Lands’ End Coupon Codes! They have some great Christmas gifts outside of clothes and tote bags. A few ideas are in the picture above and include:
