CONTESTS & SWEEPSTAKES

  • Mrs. Freshley’s, the snack cake and pastry brand, is looking for the real Mrs. Freshley. Mrs. Freshley’s has never had a face associated with the brand and one of your readers may know someone who fits … for example, Mrs. Freshley may be a grandmother who always has fresh baked goods ready for visitors or a 20-something mom whose baking skills are loved and admired among friends. The winner will receive a $1,500 American Express gift card, be posted on www.MrsFreshleys.com and may be used in future merchandising. The person who nominates the winner will receive a $500 American Express gift card. To submit nominations, consumers visit www.Facebook.com/MrsFreshleys to upload photos and write brief descriptions of why they believe their nominees are the real Mrs. Freshley by Nov 9th.
  • To coincide with the release of the hilarious new book, What’s My Pee Telling Me? hitting shelves this month, the authors and AvatarLabs have developed the “Poo Log”, an unprecedented, gastrointestinal tracker for mobile users everywhere, combining a timer with a helpful log that allows anyone to find out what’s going on “down there”. Based on the original best-selling book What’s Your Poo Telling You?, “Poo Log” is the top choice app for discerning “Poo-ers” everywhere. The application also offers a fun quiz of fascinating “Poo” facts. To celebrate this new application, we are giving away two Poo Log Prize Packs (with a copy of the What’s My Pee Telling Me? book, a What’s Your Poo Telling You? 2010 Daily Calendar, and five Poo matchbooks), retail value $25. To enter, completely fill in the form at http://www.pazsaz.com/contest6.html between October 30, 2009 and December 1, 2009. You must be at least 18 years old to enter and a resident of the United States. No group entries. Incomplete or incorrectly filled out entries will be disqualified. Complete contest rules may be found at http://www.pazsaz.com/crulesc.html.
  • If you will be attending college for the 2010-2011 academic year, and are a “success-driven” student, here is a scholarship contest that asks you to be creative: The “Frame My Future” Scholarship Contest is a unique, and exciting opportunity, offering students the chance to win a $1,000 scholarship! To enter, you must submit an original creation within one image, (in a digital JPEG image format) that expresses what you hope to achieve in your personal and professional life after college. Some examples: photograph, short typed explanation, collage, drawing, graphic design piece, painting, or any creation within one image. YOUR ENTRY SHOULD COMMUNICATE: THIS IS HOW I “FRAME MY FUTURE.” Enter September 30, 2009 – March 15, 2010
  • Healthy Moms is excited to announce that the 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway Event will take place on December 1-12, 2009. You can visit http://www.thehealthymoms.net/2009/11/12-days-of-christmas-prize-list.html for a complete list of prizes.
  • Cooking with your kids is a great way to harvest healthy eating habits, and the Idaho Potato Commission (IPC) wants to reward “kids of all ages” for learning about the Idaho® potato harvest – $10,000 to be exact ($5,000 for them and $5,000 for the school of their choice). The “Idaho® Potato Harvest Online Game & Sweepstakes” features a short, animated video hosted by the IPC mascot, Spuddy Buddy, telling the Idaho® potato harvest story – how it starts from a seed and grows into a nutritious spud that eventually makes it to your plate. After the video, enter the sweepstakes by completing a short memory game, which requires arranging a series of storyboards in the order they appeared in the video. Visit www.IdahoPotato.com now through November 20 to enter the sweepstakes.
