When MamaNYC hosts a giveaway hop you can count on me joining in. This is the second year I’ve participated in the Summer Solstice Giveaway Hop. For this event, the bloggers linked at the bottom of my post put together prize packages that are sure to make your summertime a blast. The event runs through June 25, 2014. Be sure to enter all the contests for your chances to win! Ready to enter? Let’s talk about our great sponsors!
Our first prize package comes from the Ryan’s family of steakhouses.
This includes Old Country Buffet and HomeTown Buffet. In June, Ryan’s partnered with Hasbro to bring you Family Game Night! I don’t know if you were aware of this, but Thursday night at Ryan’s is totally fun. They have breakfast for dinner which means I was able to order an omelet and my kids got pancakes. We do this at home quite often so it was fun to find it at a restaurant! Of course, they had the regular buffet menu set up as well. There was something for everyone! If you look just below the balloons in this photo, you’ll see a stack of coupons that were free for the taking. This offer allows Ryan’s diners to get 10% off their online Hasbro purchase. Pretty sweet!
They also have kid’s night, which means kids eat for $1.99 (includes drink!) with a paying adult. That can make for a budget-friendly night on the town. The collaboration with Hasbro brings us Family Game Night. The Ryan’s steakhouse in Greeneville, TN had a back room set up with board games, air hockey, foosball, and a treasure box. You can just imagine how much fun it was to visit the back room after we enjoyed our meal! There was a great offer at Father’s Day (2 dine for $17.99). I find that they often have promotions like this at holidays so be sure you keep that in mind when looking for a good place to eat during a special day. In the game room, there was a Ryan’s employee playing with the children and making sure that the game areas stayed nice and clean. Several parents were in there with us playing with their kids. It was really fun and made for such a great family atmosphere. Afterwards, we enjoyed desserts from the delicious treats shown below. Yum! My kids were partial to the cotton candy.
One lucky Savings in Seconds reader will win a prize pack from Ryan’s that includes 2 board games (Sorry and Trouble) as well as 4 meal coupons. WOW!
To add to the fun, how about winning more prizes for the kids? The same winner will receive a copy of My Vacation Journal and a 2-pack of Bo-Po nail polish (shipped separately from the Ryan’s pack).
The Bo-Po nail polish will bring a smile to children of the 80’s but also to the wee ones of 2014! The colors are so bright and kid-friendly. I used the polish to make a watermelon-themed mani. This polish is non-toxic and you don’t even need remover to get it off. It peels off after it dries! I found the pink to go on very clumpy; I had a hard time getting a smooth finish on it. I covered up some of the bumpy areas with the green dots. After it dried, I tried to peel it off. Rather than coming off in one large sheet as pictured on the package, mine came off in smaller bits. It was fun to peel it off; rather addictive, actually! The polish had no scent that I could detect. It would be great for a fun mani/pedi for the little girls in your life. Bo-Po polish is available on Amazon and at several national retailers.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
