Giveaways

I don’t know about you but I like to keep Pillsbury ready to bake cookies in the fridge and freezer for quick easy treats for my daughter. We use them as a bribe reward for good behavior around here! However, if I’m going to be honest I use them as a reward for myself as well usually around 1opm when I have sweet tooth! {{Shhh…..}}

Pillsbury now offers Ready to Bake! Shape Cookies that are themed just for Mother’s Day (and any Holiday). These pre-cut cookies come in a variety of Disney characters and are ready to place on an ungreased cookie sheet and pop into the oven until they are fully baked. The Pillsbury Mother’s Day cookies feature Mickey Mouse and it says “I Love Mom” on the cookies.

SPECIAL COUPON:

Save $1.10 when you buy ANY Pillsbury Refrigerated Disney Shape Cookies

It’s also the ONLY cartoon I will actually curl up to watch with my daughter, who is also a fan!

I don’t know what it is about my bathroom but it’s the one room in my house I LOVE to redecorate.

I never know what is going to inspire a new bathroom makeover, it could be a new kitchy bathroom rug I spot at the store, a super cute soap pump or even a Toilet Paper Roll Cover!

Jonathan Adler, known for his “happy chic” approach to design, has teamed up with Cottonelle to create a stylish way to store those extra rolls of toilet paper right out in the open. These covers are vibrant and a great way to bring color into the bathroom! No more tucking them away in a cabinet or hiding them under a crochet doily.

You can get the roll cover free with an 18-pack of Cottonelle Clean Care Toilet Paper at Jewel-Osco and other participating stores (while supplies last). You could also order them online.

Cottonelle also has a new toilet paper Cottonelle Clean Care which is the same Cottonelle toilet paper but now has extra-absorbent ripples. It’s also 30% stronger when wet and still provides the softness consumers have come to expect.

The Giveaway:

One lucky winner will receive a $25 gift card to Jewel-Osco and one Jonathan Adler toilet paper cover!

How to Enter:

  1. Mandatory: Leave a comment below letting me know where you hide those extra rolls in your bathroom
  2. Bonus Entry: “Like” Chi-Town on Facebook. Then leave a separate comment letting me know you did.
  3. Bonus Entry: Share this post on Facebook. If you share, leave a separate comment letting me know you did.
  4. Bonus Entry: Tweet this post on Twitter. If you tweet, leave a separate comment letting me know you did.

** No more then (4) Entries possible per person!

Giveaway Ends on Tuesday Feb. 14, at 10 p.m CST

Thanks to Cottonelle  for providing the prize for this giveaway. I have been compensated for this post with a Jewel gift card and an Adler toilet paper cover which I will use as inspiration for my next bathroom makeover!
