Okay, so I stopped off at the grocery store this morning on my way into work. I noticed a cardboard endcap display, empty but partially filled with empty cardboard boxes to fill in the bottom. Normally, one would just walk by wondering why the store would leave an unattractive & unfilled cardboard display on the store floor. But THIS time… my eye was caught by a very familiar logo. And, oh but wait there’s more… one of my favorite words next to it.

Are you kidding me?
TWO OF MY FAVORITE THINGS HAVE BEEN COMBINED???
So I looked a little closer. Closer than any “normal” shopper would…
Only to find that the cardboard boxes were completely empty. Mwah, mwah, mwah…

So then I set out on a somewhat frantic search throughout the store.
They have got to be somewhere!!!

Check the candy aisle. Check the seasonal foods. Check the endcaps.
Check the check-out lanes. NOTHING!!! I searched everywhere… salivating.
Only to find out that they were no where in the store!!! They must be taunting me!!!

So here’s the deal…
THE VERY FIRST PERSON TO GET SOME OF THE EVER-ELUSIVE
S’MORE M&M’s TO ME WILL GET A FREE HANDMADE MUG!!!

You can mail them, ship them, drop them off in person.
Don’t care. I MUST have them!!! Simple as that.
Of course I “welcome” multiple submissions, but keep in mind…
the FREE MUG is only for the very first person!!!

And so the challenge has begun!!!
