Momma had a great opportunity recently to try out some new products thanks to MyGetTogether by Pssst!
Pssst! is a website from General Mills Foods. They provide members with sneak peaks about new foods coming out, coupons, and more. I joined awhile ago and have gotten numerous coupons from them. My most recent adventure with them was a MyGetTogether Chex Mix Party. I was emailed that a party was coming and got to fill out the survey/application. Shortly there after I found out that I was chosen to host a party.
A few weeks ago there was a huge box left at my door. Struggling with my keys to open the door I picked up the box and ran inside with it. With much anticipation I ripped it open to see what it was inside. Inside I found a really cool Chex mix snack bowl, 3 bags of different Chex mix snacks, football plates and napkins, and a ton of coupon/information sheets! The party planning began. I invited a few of our close friends and some neighbors over to hang out and watch tv and snack.
We got together and ended up mostly just chatting and occasionally watching tv. We had the usual snacks chips and salsa, pretzels, fruit tray and veggie tray. I threw a few things together too: Wings, Spinach Dip, and Pizza Sticks. On top of that we had these three bags of Chex Mix Samples (original flavor, turtle flavor, and honey nut flavor).
The party was a huge success. Everyone enjoyed themselves and really got the chance to kick back and relax. Momma’s guests really enjoyed the snacks. The homemade wings, dip and pizza sticks were of a course a huge hit and gone before the end of the party. Guests also loved the Original Chex Mix and the Turtle Chex Mix as they were totally gone by the end of the party as well.
Now that the partying is over, General Mills is having the Ultimate Chex Mix Game Day Sweeps! You can enter to win the grand prize of $10,000 for the ultimate game day pad. Also, each month they are giving away a year’s supply of chex mix. You can get all the details and enter to win on their facebook page: Chex Mix Sweeps. Contest ends on 12/31/2010.
