Something For The Weekend - Win Instant Delights with Pink & Whites

Hello everyone! How was your week, any nice wins to report? Just one win for me for August so far – had a huge copy of the book Half a War turn up in the post from HarperCollins. I don’t remember the competition and am struggling to track it down, but it is still a nice win! Had the first of our Inside Out Brush Time Kits arrive this week too, and it is a really nice set! We have told the girls that they can’t have them until the second one arrives, so they have one each and can’t argue – at least that’s the theory!

Been another super-busy week this week – been trying to catch up from being away camping, at the same time as trying to get ahead again so that we can enjoy Cowes Week, which starts on the Island today!  During the next week the population of our little town doubles, and there is an awful lot going on.  We have plans to meet up with lots of different friends to enjoy the music, food and a few drinks, all whilst watching the spectacle of the yacht racing. 

I have been stocking up on snacks and drinks to keep in my huge handbag and take out with us over the summer – nothing worse than having to fork out on expensive food and snacks because the children are getting over-hungry, thirsty of flagging in energy.  I always try to find promotional packs of snack where I can of course, and had a real blast from my childhood when we came across the promotion being run by Pink & Whites!  I remember having these as a little girl at my Nan’s house, and was very pleased to pick up a few packs when I saw they are running a competition at the moment.  If you pick up a promotional pack of these marshmallow & wafer treats you could be winning one of 1,000s of Instant Delights!  There are 2,090 prizes available including mugs, trolley coins, tea towels, beach bags, teapots and even an iPad!  To join in register online at https://www.pinknwhitesrewards.co.uk/ and enter the promotional code from your pack to be told instantly if you are a winner.  You may enter multiple times and the promotion is running until midnight on 30^th September 2015 – good luck!

If you feel like sprucing up your kitchen with some new accessories and gadgets then here are some other great comps to try this weekend:

• I would love an all-singing, all-dancing stand mixer in my kitchen, but there is something to be said for smaller appliances that don’t take up as much room and can be stored away.  Delia Online is giving away two lovely sets of a Kenwood Mini Chopper and a kMix Hand Mixer – perfect for smaller kitchen where space is at a premium!  To enter to win you need to register with or log in at the website and answer the question (Our advice – kMix Hand Mixer) by the closing date of 16^th August 2015.

• One kitchen gadget I could never do without now is my bread machine – we use it to make every day bread, rolls, cakes and even pizza dough.  I have had mine for about ten years and not a week goes by without my using it – a real investment piece of kit.  If you would like the chance to own a fabulous Russell Hobbs bread machine too, why not head over to the Us Two Friends Blog and join in with the competition there.  To enter you need to use the Gleam widget before the closing date of 31^st August 2015, and there are daily entry options available for extra entries too.
• Did you start watching the new series of The Great British Bake Off this week?  My eldest daughter is obsessed with it, and insists on baking lots of delicious treats whenever it is on our screens.  I would love to win the Kenwood kMix Stand Mixer that Everything Baking Ltd is giving away on Facebook, to make all our home baking processes that bit easier!  To have a chance of winning head over to their Facebook page and use the app to enter before the closing date of 30^th September 2015 – happy baking!

Happy weekend comping and lots of Lucky Dust to you all!
