Oh my goodness! I've got to tell you that aside from making all these wonderful friends on the Internet, then next best thing is getting to try cool things.
I was contacted by See's Candies a few weeks back. They wanted me to review their candy! Without even reading the whole message I was replying back saying, "Hell yeah!" I LOVE See's Candies. I know some of you have never tried See's, because it's regional, but you don't know what you're missing. I LOVE their candy. They have these awesome chocolate suckers that are to die for. So, as you can imagine, I will be reviewing a few new products soon. BUT, in the meantime, I have you guys in mind. I didn't want you to just read about the wonderfulness that is See's, I wanted you to be able to experience it.
SO, I finagled a giveaway! And not just any giveaway, this one if for a $25 gift certificate to See's Candies! Now, even if you live on the east coast, you too can experience See's Candies! I'm so excited. All you've go to do it check out the See's Candies website and leave a comment here telling me what sounds good to you. I will draw a winner on December 11th at 7:00 PST.
While you're perusing the website, check out the cool chocolate fundraiser that See's does also. They are so wonderful to the community! Right now, my son's Cub Scout den is selling See's Candies as a fundraiser! And, if you need business gifts for work, See's has you covered there too!
Their Truffles look so yummy.I have never had sees candies before

I love chocolate! I've never had See's candies (being on the east coast) and they look scrumptious! Their dark chocolate mints look divine, the egg nog truffles sound yummy, and the assorted chocolates, well, let's just say I love assorted chocolates! Can you tell I have a sweet tooth! lol

Is it the most ironic thing ever that I'm EATING A butterscotch lollypop right now???? Although that happens pretty often so maybe it's not all that ironic ;)

Geez, Lori...as if I didn't already love you enough - now you're giving away chocolate?? LOL
Ok, I'd probably go with either a truffle assortment or dark chocolate assortment. Some of those candy bars look pretty amazing too, though. I pretty much want everything! :)

PICK ME!
I love their lollipops. It would be a lollipop box for me.

My grandmother LOVES See's. We used to live in Cali, so she became addicted to it then. Her fave is the Nuts & Chews assortment. :)

I don't even have to look at the site to know what I love! They have a really good maple truffle/nougat (not sure what category that is in) and I love the dark chocolate mint patties!
Posted by: Noah | December 08, 2008 at 02:07 PM
ooooo love See's. :)
I love dark chocolate. the marshmints look interesting.
thanks!

Um, what would I NOT love?! Dear heaven help me. I would pick something dark chocolate-y because that is the best, best, best thing ever created by God or man.
Posted by: Megan@SortaCrunchy | December 08, 2008 at 03:16 PM
I'm with Laura on this. Either the truffle assortment, or the dark chocolate assortment. :)
Living on the East coast/Midwest/South my whole life, I've never experienced See's goodness. But I *have* heard many a rave from my West Coast friends...
*drool*
Thanks for doing this!

Everyone should definitely have some See's in their life. Not me though--it would conflict with the whole point of the Wii Fit!

Their California brittle sounds amazing! I used to love See's chocolate suckers, but they weren't available in my area so I would have my friend in California send them to me!

Although I'd be tempted to try the Red Hot Swamp Goo, I'd really want the Dark Chocolate Assortment. If I were being really nice, I'd order something sugar free for my diabetic hubby :-)
Posted by: Tasses | December 09, 2008 at 02:27 AM
Ooooo I LUV dark chocolate! The Marshmints look really tasty!
Posted by: Tina B | December 09, 2008 at 05:07 AM
OMG I love See's Candy! I love the cafe latte lollipops and the pecan things...I can't remember what they are called haha. Kinda like turtles. YUM!

I old back from commenting on this, for a few reasons. Being a nurse, at this time of year, a good amount of the patients, or their families, choose to thank us with boxes of See's chocolate death. We have a booth that sells all these items RIGHT IN THE LOBBY. And we are a teeeeeny tiiiiiny hospital. So, sacreligious as it sounds, by new years? I'm sick of Mrs. See.
I totally think you should send some out to the East Coast Peeps, though, especially her English Toffee. When I buy it for myself, thats what I get.

After living there for almost 2 years I never tried their candy. But after looking I think the truffles look the best. Yum!!
Posted by: Jessica Moore | December 09, 2008 at 01:58 PM
I'm an assortment kind of gal!! That is so cool Lori!!
Posted by: Lisa | December 09, 2008 at 08:58 PM
Mmm, the Toffee-ettes sound very yum!
Posted by: Susan Roach | December 10, 2008 at 11:29 AM
Being from the east coast... I haven't had See's candies.. what a great opportunity to try them.. they look freaking awesome!!!
Posted by: tina | December 10, 2008 at 11:50 AM
The dark chocolate mints and bark - the dark chocolate assortment...mmmm! The asst. are fun because you never know what you're getting! I never met a chocolate I didn't like. I'm on the East Coast, too, so never heard of them. Would love to win this!

sees candy is soooo dangerous. i can not get out of that shop in any less than $20, and it is my one diet-wrecker. ooooh thank bob there is not a shop in the uk. i would die with a butterscotch sucker sticking out of my mouth.
