Fourth of July Scavenger Hunt

We’re having a picnic using some of our favorite Boon products to celebrate the Fourth of July. We took a picture from our set-up and decided to use it as a challenge to all you Boonies out there.

We need you to find the product pages for all of the 12 products found in the picture (except the Winter Grass; those pesky Water Bugs ended up eating it all) and either tweet or “like” the page once you think you have found it. (We even included some hints on the product pages to help you with your search.)

Each page tweeted or “liked” will count as one entry for up to 24 entries. Three people will be selected at random to win $50 in Boon products. Winners will be announced Thursday, July 7.

Good luck hunting and Happy Fourth!

*Open to US residents only.

Father’s Day Giveaway – Winners

A big thanks to all the Boonies who participated in the Mush + Stash Father’s Day Giveaway! We received some great ‘stache photos and based on the voting there were four that really stood out.

Since the votes were so close, and there clearly was a lot of effort put into the ‘staches, we have decided to award all four a Mush and Stash! Congratulations to the following dads and mustaches. We will be contacting you via email.

Mush + Stash Winners

If your dad didn’t win this time, don’t make him shave just yet because we might need him for a contest later this year (Winter Beards anyone???) Thanks again for your participation and we hope you all had a wonderful Father’s Day!

Father’s Day Giveaway

Happy Father's Day - MUSH + STASH Giveaway

Whether it’s short and bristly, or long and curly, Boon loves a good mustache almost as much as we love dads.

So in honor of all those fathers, we’re giving away a Mush + Stash to three lucky dads.

Simply submit a photo of your favorite mustachioed father to our Facebook contest (if they don’t currently have a ‘stache, get creative!). The top three mustaches with the most votes will be the winners! You can vote once a day for your favorite dad.

The contest starts today, June 15, and lasts through noon Monday, June 20. Winners will be announced Tuesday, June 21.

Mother’s Day Spa Day Giveaway

Mother’s Day is coming up and around this time every year, we all hear stories of great moms doing great things for their children. At Boon, we love them just as much as you do, but sometimes people forget being a mom is a tough job and sometimes we can make mistakes. That’s why we want you to share your favorite “No Mommy Is Perfect” stories about yourself or another mommy you know. Whether it was the time you were 10 minutes late picking up your kids because you lost track of time while Keeping Up with the Kardashians, or the few nights in a row you were just so tired that dinner ended up having the option of being Super-sized, we want to hear how crazy and funny being a real mom can be. Post your story in the comment section of our blog and on Monday, we will select our five favorites and post them to our Facebook page. We will then have a week-long vote and the poster of the story that gets the most votes will win $200 to a spa in their area – because every Mom needs a day of relaxation.

Congratulations to the Winner: GOLDEN

The winning “No Mommy Is Perfect” story -

“On a rainy day, I had to rush out of the house with my two boys in tow. I fumbled out of the front door, toting my plump two month old in his carrier and my two year old by the hand, I tried to race down the walkway to the car. My toddler seemed resistant and focused more on dragging his feet than scurrying to the car. I reminded him that we need to move quickly in the rain and wondered out loud why he kept looking down. Once I got him in the carseat, I realized why. My poor little guy was wearing nothing but soggy socks on his feet! I managed to put his dress him in a hat and coat but forgot his shoes!”

The Easter Snack Ball Hunt

Even though, it’s the Easter Bunny’s busiest time of year, he still had a chance to stop by the Boon website and leave 10 specially designed Easter Snack Balls on 10 different product pages. One problem though, we are having trouble finding all of them. And need your help!

If you find one of the special Easter Snack Balls on a product page, you just need to click on the “Share It” menu and use the Twitter link to “Tweet” that product so we will know where to look. Your hunting skills will be rewarded as one lucky winner will receive $300 in Boon goodies, that haven’t been tampered with by the Easter Bunny.

Each tweet will count as one entry. You can earn up to 10 entries if you are an expert hunter! The Easter Snack Ball Hunt starts today, April 21 and last through noon Monday, April 25. A winner will be selected at random and will be announced on Tuesday, April 26.

Hint: The Easter Bunny dropped 1 of the 10 Easter Snack Balls on a fairway that requires no mowing, we found it here. Happy Hunting!

 

Congratulations to the Winner: @AKauz
