Giveaway: Celebrate A Fang-tastic Halloween With Hershey's

Admit it folks: one of the best parts about Halloween is the candy available everywhere. ;) And for my family, it's of course the most wonderful time of the year because we get to shop like mad! It seems when you favor bats and spiders in your year round decor, you're limited to only shopping for new items during a few short months out of the year. And that's why I have go to say I am loving some of Hershey's new Halloween candies - they combine my love of chocolate with my love of spooky decor!



For instance, the new Kit Kat Halloween Bar has been molded to feature one of four spooky Halloween designs and messages including “Best Witches” and “You’ve Been Bitten!”. Or the York Peppermint Batties, which are shaped - yes! like a bat!:


Can you see us giddy with glee over here? My daughter's personal new favorite: the Cadbury® Screme Egg™ Candy, which looks almost the same as the Cadbury eggs we find at Easter... except these Screme Eggs are filled with green goo! She's referring to them as "alien eggs" now. As long as I don't wake up to a houseful of baby aliens a la Gremlins, I'm good! LOL


Did you know that according to a recent survey, 52 percent of Halloween candy givers favor handing out chocolate to their visitors, while 30 percent opt for hard candy or lollipops? We like to have an assortment of candies - and fun treats like spider rings - so kids can choose exactly what they want and be happy with it. I enjoy being knowing as the fun house on the trick or treat block, because I remember what it was like to get the boring stuff when I was a kid!

If you need some Halloween decorational ideas, or you're on the hunt for some ghoul-y themed crafts to do with your kids, make sure you check out the Celebrate With Hershey's website. They've got some great projects on there, like how to make a Book of Spells Candy Dish, as well as coloring pages and even screensavers. Plus, you can find some great recipes too!

Win it! Thanks to Hershey's, one lucky reader will win a Sampling of products from Hershey’s Halloween collection! To enter, tell us which candy you looked forward to most in your trick-or-treat bag - or if you don't/didn't celebrate Halloween, which candy is your favorite indulgence.

And as always, you can receive extra entries for:

-Subscribing to my feed OR publicly following my blog via GFC OR Facebook (You can follow all three ways, but only *1* counts for *1* entry)
-Blogging about this giveaway with a link back
-Tweeting about this giveaway 1X (leave the link in your comment below or @psychotichouse)
example: #win Hershey's candy! http://bit.ly/TwUEFK ends 10/27 @psychotichouse

That's four (4) possible entries! Giveaway ends October 27th at 11:59 PM PST, and please leave your email address in your entry or have it available in your profile. US only, sorry :( Good luck everyone!! :)

I received an assortment of products from Hershey's. One winner will receive the prize stated above, as fulfilled by the giveaway sponsor.
