Heh. That’s funny. The anti-spam word is my brother’s name.
I sent in my email, it’s certainly worth a shot. $40 of Dove is a tempting prize. Maybe they could use that to spice up the Publisher’s Clearinghouse sweepstakes. Good news, you won 10 million dollars. AND CANDY!
Hi!
This is awesome! I really like the dove super dark covered almonds! mmmmm!
this candy is awesome
What a nice giveaway offer! I especially enjoy Dove dark chocolate.
mmmmm Dove. I love Dove chocolate – all of it.
Me like Dove candeee!
Ohhhhh, is “Dove Chocolate Center of Excellence” a factory? I thought it was a new candy with chocolate in the center :P I was wondering why I couldn’t find any online.
Anyone receive their gift bags yet? I’m waiting by the mailbox daily! :P
ButterflyKyss ^__^ My Dad won and has not received the gift bag yet! Thank you for posting :) We were a little worried that they forgot him or something :P I guess it takes 4-6 weeks to get it… So hopefully everyone will have them by Thanksgiving so they can share :D
*Whew* Thank you for replying Philly! Good to hear I’m not the only pathetic soul standing there looking wistfully at the mailman each day! :P I’m actually sort of glad it’s taking a little while though… my son is starting to run out of Halloween chocolate to share with me, so now I’ll appreciate it more! :P Congrats to your dad (and hopefully you, since we all know dad will need a little ‘help’ eating all that chocolate! :P)!
Your very welcome ButterflyKyss! How did you know I was waiting for the mailman each day? :P It’s been raining a lot where I live, so I was pondering on setting up my brother’s old J.I. Joe tent outside. Then if it rains I can camp outside for a bit and save the chocolate from a certain soggy doom. Just incase the mailman forgets to ring the doorbell when he leaves the package. :) That’s very sweet of your son to share his Halloween candy with you! I don’t actually eat candy, but I do collect wrappers! :D My Dad said he would save them for me. :) My Mom will have to fill in for me, for helping eat all the chocolate, hee hee. I have a big box full of the little hershey’s kisses paper flags! :)
I’ll make sure to post once my Dad gets the chocolate!
You know, I’m beginning to think my mailman has a sweet tooth. Still no sign of chocolates, and the Halloween supply has been gone for a couple weeks now :( *sigh*
ButterflyKyss ^_^ I e-mailed them on the 25th of November asking them about it, and this was part of their reply:
“No reason to worry – the prize packages haven’t been sent out just yet so you should receive yours in about four weeks.”
So we should be receiving them by Christmas :)
I believe a bag was received here in New York City, so keep your eyes peeled if you won! They should be there soon!
WOOT ^_^ Thank you for the good news Caitlin :D
Seriously, thank you Philly and Caitlin! I can almost taste them now! :D
Mine arrived today! 12/16/2008
The Dove package arrived today :D It was raining out so I was sitting by the door waiting for the mail dude :)
I expected there to be a lot more candy since they said, “limited-edition Dove giftpack valued at $40.†I guess the bag was worth about $25! It is a very nice sturdy bag :) I was wondering if everyone got the same candies. Can everyone please post what they got if they have a few spare minuets? We got:
one 5.8 oz box of Mint Caramel
one 5.36 oz box 63% Cacao
one 3.53 oz bar Silky Smooth Milk Chocolate
two 1.16 oz bar Almond Silky Smooth Milk Chocolate
Thank you to Brian for hosting the contest and to Dove for supplying the prizes :) Got the package just in time for the holidays!
I’m guessing the reason mine hasn’t come yet is due to the bizarre arctic ha-ha-you’re-stuck-in-snow-and-ice-that-never-happens-here weather. I’ll be watching through my window with high hopes as the mailman comes by today, though!
Well, if I can *see* through my icicle covered window, that is. And I certainly won’t be bounding down the stairs to grab it either after today’s ‘hey look! Ice!’ *insert falling down concrete stairs sound here* :P
Seriously though, chocolate would totally help my poor bruised hip. Is there anything chocolate won’t heal?
ButterflyKyss ^_^ Not sure what state your in, but Caitlin said someone from New York got it the 15th, I’m in Pennsylvania and got it the 16, the return address has New York in it… So, I guess it depends on how close you are to New York. The people in California are the furthest away so I think they would get their packages last. But at least you know it’s on the way! And it’s well worth the long wait :D
I haven’t gotten mine yet, but I’m keeping my eyes peeled.
How did you know these are my FAVORITE? EVERY TIME i SEE THEM ON SALE i BUY AT LEAST 4 BAGS…..
