TIB’S SEASON OF GIVING 2025: Day 16

Okay. This is the last day of TIB’s Season of Giving. Fo’ reals this time. I checked everywhere for other things I could give away, but I could not find anymore.

So what is this?

It’s a Ben & Jerry’s-branded ice cream chiller from a company called S’well. According to the S’well website, the insulated steel container is designed to keep ice cream frozen for four hours. Well, ain’t that swell. I think I got it last year or the year before, and it’s been sitting in my closet unused. I have never needed to keep an ice cream pint frozen for four hours, but I have eaten an entire ice cream pint in under four hours.

If you need to keep pints frozen for four hours, might I suggest entering this prize drawing for the one above.

RULES:

To enter this prize drawing for this , leave a comment with THIS post, and that comment MUST include the words “You know it’s chiller, chiller night.”

We will stop accepting entries on Monday, January 5, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time. Only one comment is allowed per person, and it’s only open to U.S. residents.

JUST A FEW OF NOTES:

Also, do not leave your comment using the blue REPLY button at the bottom of other comments. Scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page and leave your comment in the section above the blue POST COMMENT button. I know. Lots of scrolling. But it’ll totally be worth it if you win this.

Good luck!

TIB’S SEASON OF GIVING 2025: Day 14

Here we are at the last day of this year’s Season of Giving, and what we’ve got here is the most recent non-food item I received from General Mills: A Peanuts mug set. It came with a bunch of Chex cereal and a few baking mixes.

Despite my perceived lack of drinking glasses because almost all of my beverage photos feature Pyrex measuring cups, I do not need this mug set. And you probably also don’t need this mug set because chance are that you have enough mugs in your kitchen. But if you NEED mugs, you should enter this prize drawing for four of them.

TIB’S SEASON OF GIVING 2025: Day 13

General Mills sent me this insulated cup at the start of the football season. I haven’t used it and will never use it because it holds only 11 ounces. That’s a weird number to make a cup, right? I can understand 8 ounces because that’s a cup. I can understand 12 ounces because that’s a cup and a half. Maybe it’s 11 ounces because it holds 8 ounces of liquid, plus a little extra for ice? I don’t have a degree in cup design, so I don’t know.

Also, isn’t 11 ounces a little small for a “Game Day” cup? I don’t want to have to refill a cup during a game. What if I miss the quarterback throwing an interception in the red zone? What if I miss a pitcher striking out the side in nine pitches? What if I miss the soccer player accidentally running into a referee?

Oh wait. YouTube. I can watch it later on YouTube.

Anyhoo, if an 11-ounce cup interests you, enter this drawing for it.

TIB’S SEASON OF GIVING 2025: Day 12

I’m not sure what today’s prize is, but I think it’s called a pint sweater with wooden spoon, and it’s like a coozie for ice cream pints. As you can tell, it’s from Ben & Jerry’s and it came with, I want to say, the One Love flavor? And that was in 2017, so that was a long time ago.

But I have never needed a coozie for ice cream pints because my hands have an unusual tolerance for cold that I obtained when I used to work as a dairy merchandiser in high school. So this pint sweater needs a home. Perhaps you could give it a nice home and slide many ice cream pints into it. Well, that is if you win it.

TIB’S SEASON OF GIVING 2025: Day 11

You’d be lucky to win this Lucky Charms bracelet that General Mills sent with some Lucky Charms.

Okay, not really.

It won’t give you good luck, but if you feel like you have any, winning this would probably drain whatever you had. But if you win this, and then you win the lottery, I believe I’m entitled to half of your winnings.
