{ Announcement & Giveaway } M&M’S® Spokescandies Are Heading to Canada! (Closed)

by 678 Comments

I’m excited to have been chosen as one of the folks who is helping to spread the word… The  M&M’S®  Spokescandies are heading to Canada!  They are setting off on a cross country road trip to visit Canadian cities, landmarks and events and they are looking for YOUR recommendations on where they should stop next.  That’s right M&M’S®- Canada wants to know, what do you consider the must see sites in Canada for a chocolate covered candy tourist?

Over the next ten months, Canadians are invited to join M&M’S® Spokescandies Red, Yellow, Blue, Orange and Green as they travel across Canada. You can follow their journey  on their new Twitter account, @mmscanada  The Spokescandies will be tweeting about their travels, posting photos and postcards, and asking Canadians to tell them where they should head to next!


 
“This is my first big trip across Canada. I’m excited, but anxious — what if I forgot to pack something important?? And I hear that Canadians REALLY love their M&M’S® Candies, so maybe preparing for the cold should be the least of my worries!… *Gulp*”

–       Orange, M&M’S® Spokescandy

My suggestion?  They need to try pizza made in Windsor!  Wait, do Spokescandies eat pizza?  Hmm… well maybe they should just drop in to get a glimpse of the Detroit skyline.

Help the M&M’S® Spokescandies discover the BEST of Canada by tweeting your recommendations to @mmscanada using the hashtag #CanadasBest , by posting on the M&M’S®- Canada Facebook Page or by emailing in your suggestions.

WIN IT

    I am like Orange. Which says Orange sees his popularity as a threat to his personal safety. Like Orange, you keep more to yourself so that new people don't find out how irresistible you are! (If they knew, they'd eat you alive!) You're extremely cautious and prefer to have small close-knit group of friends. Can't be too carefulsilverneon2000 at yahoo dot com

    Yellow trusts his friends, especially Red, so completely that he sometimes doesn't realize when Red's playing him. (It's all in good fun!) Like Yellow, you like to think the best of people. You take great pleasure in the little joys life brings your way. Stop and smell the roses!

    I am most like Blue Blue's got nothing to prove, so he just plays it cool. Like Blue, you're aware of your undeniable appeal, but you're not arrogant about it. You are confident and laid-back. Never play it the same way twice!spec@live.ca
