Build-A-Bear Workshop Military Moms Twitter Parties

Some companies just have a way of capturing our hearts by showing us that they care! Build-A-Bear Workshop® is a perfect example of a brand that is dedicated to supporting families. As if we needed another reason to LOVE everyone's favorite Teddy Bear experience, they are offering a special to military families! From May 3 to June 7 2010, members of the armed services including the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Coast Guard, and Reserve Officer Training Corps will receive a 20% discount on any one transaction at Build-A-Bear Workshop stores with the presentation of a government issued military identification card. In 2002, Build-A-Bear Workshop partnered with the USO (United Service Organization) by donating almost 20 thousand bears for military families. Since then they have continued to support the USO in different ways. This year, Build-A-Bear Workshop is inviting Guests to donate $1 at checkout registers at all Build-A-Bear Workshop locations in the United States. Build-A-Bear doesn't only want to provide you with a discount; they want to get to know you too! That's why they are sponsoring TWO 30-min twitter parties so our friends on both coasts can salute our military heroes.

Now you see why I was SO excited to tell you?!!??!

If you remember, I wrote a post about how much The USO means to our Family, and of course as does The Military ;)

So when I was given the opportunity to scream to all of my friends (that means you) about these events, and at the same time
not only give our Military a MUCH DESERVED DISCOUNT ;) but...
HELP RAISE MONEY FOR THE USO,

I was completely and extremely excited!!!! ;)

I will be there for BOTH Twitter parties, come over and party-hardy!!!
Please share with all of your friends, Military and non-Military of course,

 Have you tried The New Fiber One Yogurt?  Do you know why It's so great?

I'm glad you asked, let me enlighten you ;)

"Fiber One Yogurt is the only leading nonfat yogurt with 50 calories and 5 grams of fiber (20 percent of the Recommended Daily Value). It is also a good source of calcium and vitamins A and D, making this a guilt-free and all-around great choice for dieters and those watching their weights. Each cup includes the creamy, delicious taste you expect from Yoplait, and you don’t have to feel guilty about enjoying it. Fiber One is available in a variety of flavors including, Strawberry, Peach, Vanilla and Key Lime Pie." 

Yes, I went and tried it, and let me tell you, I LOVE the strawberry flavor.  It has to be my favorite ;)   So not only do I get a great treat by eating a great tasting yogurt, but I am only eating 50 calories, 5 grams of Fiber, and 0 Grams Fat!!!

Do yourself this favor, treat your taste buds to a wonderful thing ;) and enjoy the fact that it's only 50 calories as well, how much better can it get right?!?!?!?
