Free $25 Gift Certificate for See’s Candies
Did I mention I’m giving up caffeine for lent?
Caffeine in all forms
Yes. Soda, starcrack, and even… chocolate.
It’s only been a few days, but I still have the shakes.
And of course, what happens when I decide to give up the sweet nectar of the gods?
See’s Candies contacts me to offer a $25 Gift Certificate to giveaway to my readers.
*sigh*
How many more days until this is over? There is a light at the end of this tunnel, right?
Oh, and please tell me there’s a glistening bunny wrapped in foil there that poops jelly beans, because have you seen their Easter Candy?
To. die. for.
So mah peeps. Want a FREE $25 gift certificate for some sweet See’s Candies to have all to yourself for you and your loved ones? Did I mention that you can even customize a box with whatever candies you like?
*swoon*
How to enter (very, very easy):
1) Just leave a comment on this post saying you would like to enter this giveaway. I’m not psychic, or even close. And that’s it!
2) Please make sure you leave a valid email address in the comment form so I can contact you.

**Addendum- I have just been informed that only some companies add caffeine to chocolate, but it’s not naturally in cacao. Woohoo!

Mmmm…chocolate… I gave up peanut m&m’s for Lent, or as I like to call them, Satan’s Candy. I wasn’t insane enough to give up ALL chocolate. Just those in plentiful supply in the office.
March 4th, 2009 at 9:36 am
I’ve never had See’s Candy, but sure would love to win some. Thanks!

Can a person seriously give up all of that for Lent and still survive? I’m not sure you should even try … but don’t let me keep you from being spiritual!

I gave up caffeine for lent one year. It was hard but made me feel great.

Good for you, I say. I gave up caffeine with my first pregnancy in 2003 and never went back to my beloved Dr. Pepper since then. I don’t know if I could include chocolate with that too, you are one brave woman.
I was actually getting the taste for some British chocolate and toffee from a shop only in the UK (hate when that happens), this would be a brilliant substitute! I used to walk past a See’s Candy shop every-so-often before we moved to Montana, I had to keep going or I would have spent my wages in there!!

I gave up chocolate for Lent. We’ve always been lenient, allowing Lent doers to have what they give up on Sundays. This past Sunday, the first Sunday of Lent, I HAD to have the butterscotch squares. Nothing beats it. So pick me. And I’ll celebrate you every Sunday of Lent. EVERY Sunday.
