The Finalists in the Prego Fun With Food Photo Contest
We want to thank all of you who entered our Fun With Food Photo Contest sponsored by Prego.
Representatives for Prego will supply the winner with a grocery card for a grocery chain in their area, in the amount of $500. If they are unable to secure a grocery card that works for the winner, they will supply a cash card for $500.
We have been so busy around here with our fun Christmas Giveaway, that we asked Pamela at Happy Panda to help us select the photo finalists.
Not only was Pamela nice enough to help us, she also is offering each of you 25% off of her adorable line of baby clothes. Simply use code: 5M4M during checkout. Offer expires: 1/1/09.
Pamela narrowed down the photos to 45 semi-finalists. We then narrowed her list down to our favorite 20 photos. Thank You so much Pamela for all of your help.
