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*

    Count me in. And let me rephrase when I said in my other comment about being “nominated” that I get that you are a finalist and not merely nominated and that I think that is a hugely big deal and very cool. And that you deserve to win. Whether I get chocolate or not. ;)

    All right!

    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.

  54. SiobhanNo Gravatar

    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!!

  55. patoisNo Gravatar

    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.
