Popcorn and a Movie Anyone? – A Contest!
January 1, 2008
I am so excited to announce my very first Weight Watchen Contest giveaway! I can’t believe it!
Here’s the deal…
Orville Redenbacher wants to spread the word about their new Natural line of popcorn. It has zero artificial colors, flavors or preservatives…it tastes great naturally! And it comes in 3 flavors: Simply Salted, Buttery Garlic and Buttery Salt & Cracked Pepper (and yes there is a low fat version!)
To help them spread the word they are offering a new box (6 bags) of popcorn to the winner each month for a year (flavor of your choice) AND Orville will fit the bill for a 1-year 2-movies-at-a-time Netflix subscription! I don’t know about you but I can’t live without popcorn OR movies. So this is SO AWESOME!
There is only one catch, you have to have a blog to enter. Each blogger who mentions the contest in a post by Jan 11, links back to me here (http://weightwatchen.com) and to Orville (http://orville.com) gets assigned a number and entry in the contest. I will then select a number at random (the toddler will pick it out of a hat :~P) and announce the winner on January 11.
How exciting is this?!
Let me know if you have any questions and leave a comment when you post the link to make sure I see it. This will guarantee your entry!

Roni,
That sounds like so much fun!
So if I post a gazillon times, do I get a gazillon entries? Do you have a container big enough to hold all those entries?
I’m in! And I hold off on posting that gazillon until I get the word on the multiple entries.

On January 2nd, 2008 at 12:05 am Roni said:
Ahhhh the good old multiple entries question, DARN I knew I missed something!
No, sorry, just one entry per person, simple because I do NOT have a container that big to hold all those entries.
Although it would be a cute picture of the toddler surrounded by a gazillion little papers in a really, really big box! ;~P

Can anyone find a place that is selling this popcorn yet? Amazon doesn’t have the Natural selection (just the organic). I’m also (of course) looking for the nutritional information, which Orville Redenbacher’s parent company doesn’t seem to have up yet (but maybe if its in the stores already someone else does?)I REALLY want to try that black pepper one!
Cheers!
