This contest is now closed... come back tomorrow for another basket giveaway!
How fun is that?
Lucky little me was so excited to receive this in the mail two weeks ago. Lucky family members of mine were thrilled to get to share those Chex Mix bars with me too! I have had the pleasure of being asked to be a part of MyBlogSpark which basically means I get to try fun things like this and then offer a few of you the same opportunity. Not bad, eh? Not only is there a full box of Chex Mix bars in there, but there is also a nail brush, loofah sponge, massager, caramel scented lotion, and three chocolate scented candles.
I am very upfront about the fact that I make just about any kind of treat or baked good from scratch in this house. I make granola bars. I bake our bread. Yada yada yada. But I'm also not "above" packaged treats. And when I read the description of these Turtle Chex Mix bars --"These new snacks combine crunchy Chex pieces, pretzels and peanuts with chewy and indulgent ingredients like caramel and chocolate. And if that´s not enough, they have less than 150 calories per bar and provide at least 8 grams of whole grain per serving (48 grams recommended daily)!"-- there was little doubt in my mind that we would all like them. And we did. I have since purchased a second box of Chex Mix bars using this coupon. They're super handy to keep in the diaper bag for a quick snack for the kids or a last-ditch breakfast for a mommy who rushed out the door too fast!
I am delighted to be able to offer one of these baskets to THREE of my readers. The first basket was won last night by KCShipe. Congrats! I still have two more to give away! For the next two weeks, I'll be giving away one basket each week. The entry period will run from 6:00 AM Wednesday morning until 6:00 PM Eastern Time on Tuesday.
To enter, please leave a comment answering these questions:
What's the "newest" treat you've tried? Did you like it?
Please be sure your name is "clickable" or you leave an email address so I can contact you.
For a bonus entry, mention this giveaway on your blog then post your link in the comments.
Thanks... good luck!!!

Yum - I have been trying to win one of these for weeks, so maybe this time will be the charm.
Lately I have been loving fresh whole wheat blueberry pancakes for a snack. Might not be the most original treat, but they are so good. :)
Apple butter and homemade bread! Yum!
My favorite treat is anything with yogurt dip. I use fresh fruit, veggies, chips etc.
I have been LOVING the Hershey's Bliss!
Newest treat... well I recently purchased Pillsbury Toaster Strudels in a new flavor: Boston Creme Pie. Thought they might be yummy for a late night snack. I thought wrong. Ewe- gross! Now I'm wondering what I'm going to do with the rest of the package. I've still not tried the Chex Bars, so I'd love to win!
I recently tried Bagelfuls - they weren't my favorite treat by any means. :)

I am part of the PSSST panel, and they sent me a coupon to try their PILLSBURY GRANDS CINNAMON ROLLS from the freezer case for free. Big hit with the whole fam!
The newest treat I've tried is the Rold Gold Pretzel Waves in Cheddar. They were okay but not my favorite. They were an awkward shape to eat.
The newest thing I have tried are Pringles Stix. The honey wheat flavor is really good! Thanks for the giveaway!
I recently tried putting whipped cream on top of my coffee at home and it is soooo yummy. And it's a ton cheaper than going out for coffee...and it makes every morning feel special. LOL!
Enter me please. I'd love to try these.

Today I tried a Kashi Protein bar (not really a treat except that it was chocolate and pnut butter). I didn't prefer it, but would eat it for the nutritional value.
My favorite newest treat is Chex Mix - the turtle flavor - but I haven't tried the bars yet! I received a sample bag in the mail while I was pregnant with my new baby daughter. I became hooked on it, and munched on it through the remainder of my pregnancy Yummy!
I tried Pringles Stix and I prefer the chips :(

Today I tried the new dessert shooters at Applebees (I tried the strawberry cheesecake one) and it was SO good!!! I definately recommend them and they are only $1.99 each!!
This looks fun! I've been meaning to try those chex bars.
Lately, I've been enjoying the SoyJoy bars.
I bought some Reeses Clusters the other day at CVS and they are sooooo good! Thanks for the great giveaway! I hope I win!

Last night I tried the pumpkin spice (or was it pumpkin pie spice?) creamer from International Delights-- yum!!! I love stuff like that and I was not disappointed with the flavor of this!

I have tried...a baby ruth candy bar? That is the only "goodie" I ahve had lately, and believe it or not, I'm pretty sure I never had one before!!! It was okay. I like homemade cookies or pastries better than "hardcore" candy:)

The chex mix turtle bars! YUM! Who knew that those little bars would be soooo good :)
I have been considering making homemade granola bars....care to share your recipe?
My husband constantly jokes with me about my bringing home strange foods! My newest experiment? Emerald chipolte peanuts..YUCK!! I like my potato chips to taste like bbq, but peanuts? No way!
Cherry Pie Larabar, and it was yummy! But I decided I could just stick to dried cherrie and almonds and it's pretty similar. :)

I tried a Reese's crunchy bar. It was pretty awesome.
I've been wanting to try these, since I love Chex. Probably the newest thing I've tried is the Keebler Pretzel crackers, which are good but a little too salty,
I tried the Chex Turtle mix and must I say addictive and yummy! Just a once in a while snack.
Hope to win.

What a great basket! I'd love to win one and give it to a friend for her birthday. I just tried a new treat last week-- the Gingersnap Latte at Starbucks. soooo goood!
Thanks for the reminder! I thought I had entered this one.
My favorite new treat?? I treated myself to Brie, baguettes, and a bottle of Cotes du Rhone yesterday at Costco. Throw in the Bliss chocolate from CVS last week and I have arrived. ;)
Funny thing...those Turtle Chex mix bars are my new favorite snack. I bought a few preparing for Hurricane Gustav and loved them!!
Thanks for this fun contest!
Well I recently tried the Mojo cliff bar & it was fantastic. They have a flavor peanut butter & jelly, a little salty mixed with a little sweet, yummy! Even my 17 month old loves to snack on these when we are out & about. :) Pam
hmm newest treat?
I'd say Carmel APple SPice from Starbucks (it was new t me LOL) and I LOVED Them
I recently tried the Kashi Fruit & Cereal bars. (Had a great coupon!) They were really good! I make just about everything from scratch so it was a nice change of pace. =)
The newest treat I tried were baked pumpkin seeds without the shell. I love them with the shell--but without it they were just okay.
I tried the Bagelfuls and love them.
I recently tried out the Chex mix bars myself--very tasty!
I was in a Barnes and Nobles Starbucks a couple of weeks ago and tried a Marshmellow Mocha. DELICIOUS!!!
I am loving the basket! too cute!
and newest treat - well i absolutely love hummus. Recently I found some chunky olive hummus, yumo!
That basket makes me relax just looking at it. :)
My newest "treat" is the parfait from McDonald's. I just bought one a week ago and have been through the drive through twice since then for more. The best part is (compared to what I usually snack on) they're pretty nutritious.
I just found the pumpkin cheese cake at Barnes and Noble. Yum!

As bad as it may sound..... I had one of those homeade-looking cookies by the cash register in a marathon station, and haven't been able to duplicate it! It was sooo good!

I just tried White Chocolate Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.. yum yum! Thanks for the great giveaway!
