Old El Paso El Tacodor Giveaway

This giveaway is closed. Congratulations to the winner, commenter #75, Anne G.!

We have tacos about once every two weeks, it’s such an easy meal to make and everyone can customize theirs just the way they like. I like to buy the taco kits that have the shells, seasoning and sauce, and one of my favorites is definitely Old El Paso. So when MyBlogSpark was looking for bloggers to do a review for Old El Paso, I eagerly signed up!

ElTacodor

Tacos, yum!!  In addition to reviewing Old El Paso products, I learned that we would also be reviewing El Tacodor, the world’s first Family Taco Night Game.  Here’s how the El Tacodor website describes it:

For a fun and easy way to keep the family at the table, play El Tacodor, the world’s only Family Taco Night Game. Challenge family members to quickfire trivia, wordplay and pantomime, and share a laughter-filled night at home. Best of all, it’s FREE! Just click, print and you’re ready to play.

Through MyBlogSpark, we received two coupons for free Old El Paso products, a $10.00 gift card to buy additional ingredients, plus the El Tacodor game rules, laminated game questions and 2 score cards.  The El Tacodor Starter Pack has five categories of games for Family Taco Night Game fun, like making up a poem about your taco, or picking a partner and naming five foods that start with “W”.  I couldn’t think of an original poem about tacos, so I sang this song instead:

I love my taco, oh yes I do-ooo,
I love my taco, and I’ll be true.
When it’s not near me, I’m blue,
Oh taco, I love you!

Okay, so I won’t be winning any awards with that, but it cracked everybody up!  I applaud Old El Paso for coming up with a game that keeps family members at the dinner table together just a little bit longer, while laughing and playing together.

WIN IT: Thanks to Old El Paso and MyBlogSpark, I have a great giveaway for MomCooks readers!  One winner will receive  two coupons to purchase Old El Paso dinner kits and a $10 gift card to purchase any additional meal needs (i.e. meat, cheese, lettuce, etc).  To enter, leave a comment on this post telling me whether you prefer hard shell or soft shell tacos.  Open to U.S. only, enter by November 19th at 12:00 PM EST. Winner will be chosen at random and emailed for their mailing address. Shipping will be handled by MyBlogSpark.

Wubbzy Xmas AdvWe love Wubbzy!  In the new Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!: Wubbzy’s Christmas Adventure on DVD, the holidays are coming, and everyone in Wuzzleburg is getting ready for Winter Wonder Wubb Club fun! In this all-new Wubbzy collection, everyone’s favorite bendy-tailed buddy pitches in to decorate The Figgity-Fig Tree, fix Walden’s snow sculpture and even solve the mystery of the Snow Shoo-Shoo!

Holiday Sweepstakes and Giveaway-The Popcorn Factory

This giveaway is closed. Congratulations to the winner, comment #75 from Judy Brittle.

MRgiftguidebuttonThe Popcorn Factory, a leading gourmet popcorn and edible gifts company, is celebrating 30 years of delicious, fun gifts that delight families, friends, children and business customers. In honor of its 30th anniversary and National Popcorn Month, The Popcorn Factory has launched a “30 Gift Giveaway” sweepstakes. The sweepstakes, which runs now through November 23, 2009, will provide one lucky grand prize winner with 30 gifts for their friends and family (up to a $6,000 value) just in time for the holiday season.

To introduce me to their product, The Popcorn Factory sent the MomReviews family a two gallon Falling Leaves tin with their 3-way mix of butter, cheese, and caramel popcorn. It is totally addictive!  I would have never guessed that a piece of cheese popcorn and a piece of caramel popcorn would taste so good together, but they totally do.  In addition to flavored popcorn, The Popcorn Factory’s products include cookies, candies, and chocolate.  There are samplers sized for a few people, towers and baskets for larger groups. Whatever your occasion, there’s sure to be a Popcorn Factory product to fit!
