Hellman’s virtual sandwich swap N share

- brandy3 3 Comments

When i was a kid I always wanted to trade my sandwich with my friends. turkey and cheese just got old after a while.. My kids on the other hand are not old enough but i don’t think would trade their PB&j sandwiches.  Luckily, Hellmann’s and Best Foods Mayonnaise has teamed up with musician and actor Billy Ray Cyrus to encourage people of all ages to celebrate their favorite childhood ritual and join the virtual Sandwich Swap ‘n’ Share program to raise money for Feeding America, the nation’s leading domestic hunger-relief charity.

join Billy Ray Cyrus, celebrated celebrity dad, in contributing to this very worthy cause. For every sandwich created as part of the virtual Sandwich Swap ‘n’ Share program on www.facebook.com/hellmanns. Hellmann’s and Best Foods will donate 7 lunches[1] to Feeding America.

thanks to Momselect

 

Each sandwich created will automatically enter you for a chance to win a $250 grocery store gift certificate. And for every friend on Facebook  that you share your sandwich with, Hellmann’s and Best Foods will donate an additional 7 lunches to the charity.

It’s summer and tons of partys/get togethers are going on. As a hostess i rely on disposable cups and plates to cut down on clean up time.  I hate how small the cups are though. I have guests come over who have big hands and they try and grasp a little cup.

Solo has introduced a new line of cups designed for a more comfortable and reliable hold.  The Solo squared single use cup.

To celebrate Solo is having a photo contest with a grand prize of $5000 dollars.  all you have to do to enter is upload a photo of you and a Solo squared cup to www.SoloCups4ever.com and you’ll be entered to win.  Plus 2 runnerups will recieve $1000 and many more will win solo products and gift cards.
