Popcorn Winners!
Posted by Sarcastic Mom, aka Lotus in Food, Kitchen on August 19, 2008
Sorry to be late announcing the Orville Redenbacher Popcorn Kit Winners! John’s been gone for 2 weeks, and will leave this week for 3 more… so I got all dumb and forgetful when he just came home. Soaking him in before he’s rambling on again!
Enough about that… you want to know if you get to lay your hot little hands on some popcorn. 
Winners were selected by the integer generator at random.org
The three winners are:
Congratulations, Ladies! I’ll be in touch.
…Or His Name’s Not Orville Redenbacher!

Everyone knows what those words mean – the best, yummy microwave popcorn you can cram in your facehole! And I know about facehole cramming – my husband and I consider it a sport in our house.
Munchies for a movie, snack, or anytime can be cured with Orville Redenbacher popcorn, and this stuff is the best of the best.
I’ve never met an OR Popcorn that I didn’t like, but my favorite lately has been the new line of “Naturals,” which taste better to me than the others, and are better for you. They have no artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, no trans fats and are 100% whole grain popcorn. The flavors are excellent – Simply Salted, Simply Salted 50% less fat, Buttery Garlic, Buttery Garlic & Cracked Pepper. (The pepper one is a favie in our household.)
Are you hungry for popcorn yet? I’ll bet you are! Well, here’s your chance to get some for free.
THREE LUCKY WINNERS will receive an Orville Redenbacher Popcorn Kit – free popcorn samples and a nice, big bowl to eat them out of! (Seriously, I love the bowl almost as much as the popcorn, but don’t tell anyone.)
If you’d like a chance to win the Orville Redenbacher Popcorn Kit, just leave a comment on this post. You have until 11:59PM CST Saturday, August 16th to leave a comment here.
Mentioning this giveaway on your website with a link to this post will earn you an extra entry. Please leave a SECOND comment here with a link if you do this.
On Sunday, August 17th, I will announce THREE winners (determined via random number generator).
GOOD LUCK!
Disclosure: This is an uncompensated review. I received an Orville Redenbacher Popcorn Kit for review, free of charge.
