We’ve decided to do another pumpkin giveaway to celebrate the start of October! And this one is even better. We spent nearly double last time and these pumpkin goodies are from Trader Joe’s!

Our last giveaway was a huge success. [We’re still waiting to hear back from the winner – so Carla Diaz – check your email! But we know that we will be shipping it out soon.] And we promised we would consider doing another if it went well – so here it is!

This time, we ran over to Trader Joe’s and made our way through the aisles picking up as many pumpkin items as we could fit in our basket. Well, not quite. But we did end up with a literal mountain of tasty pumpkin treats. And a Haunted House Kit, which qualified because there is a pumpkin on the packaging. [We may have stretched our definition of pumpkin there but it is a haunted house kit. How could we not buy it?]

We set a $50 budget this time … and the bill came to around $75 !! We don’t know what happened. Things just jumped into our cart. We have to admit that there are a few things that we didn’t buy (or it would have cost us more!). Multiple packages of pumpkin bread seemed excessive, and we passed at the pumpkin seeds. [You can tell us in the comments if we should have included them.] Pumpkin yogurt was not going to make it in shipping – so we left it out. But we did add in the fall harvest salsa for your pumpkin tortilla chips!









Here is what the winner will get:

Note: We are not affiliated with Trader Joe’s and they paid us nothing to do this giveaway – we’re just big fans of there fall selection of food. We may have bought a few duplicates so that we had some snacks for this weekend. And, well, the pumpkin cookie butter is divine all year round. Try it on waffles or french toast – our faves.

We want to put this in your hands as quickly as possible – so the contest opens momentarily and will close on October 4, 2016 at 11:59 PM (Pacific). Contest terms and conditions and entry rules apply. We pay for shipping (within the US).

September just flew by, didn’t it? We can’t believe Saturday is October 1st. So enter now and we’ll do our best to get these items to you by next weekend!

October Kickoff with a Pumpkin Giveaway
