. so many choices {swanson’s giveaway} .

July 21, 2014 by Amanda @ .running with spoons. 236 Comments

Happy Monday, friends! πŸ˜€

No? Not a fan of Mondays? Well, maybe I can do something to make this particular Monday a little more bearable for you… how does a fun little giveaway sound?

A few weeks ago, a rep from Swanson’s Health Products reached out to inform me that this summer marks Swanson’s 45th anniversary as a family-owned company. That’s 45 years of providing people with quality vitamins, supplements, healthy foods, and natural beauty products at great prices. Love it!

Swanson 45 Years

And that’s not even the best part! To celebrate, Swanson’s is hosting a 45 Healthy Foods Sweepstake where you can enter for a chance to win 45 healthy foods and $500.

45 Healthy Foods

They’re also partnering up with bloggers and offering readers a chance to win a $45 gift certificate to spend on anything on the site — and believe me when I say that’s a lot of choices…

Swanson Categories

Collectively, I think I spent about 2 hours browsing the site trying to decide what to use my gift certificate on… Decision making is not my forte, and it’s hard to narrow it down when you’re choosing from awesome companies like Bob’s Red Mill, Justin’s, Blue Diamond, Quest, Eden Foods, and Annie’s — among hundreds of others.

In the end, this is what went in to my virtual buggy…

My Swanson Order

I wanted to get something that I’ve never tried before and that I couldn’t buy up here, so I got a bag of Ghiradelli’s unsweetened cocoa powder, a tub of Tera’s Whey vanilla whey protein, and 2 bags of Bare Fruit apple chips… which I know I can buy here, but Swanson’s had them at almost half price, so I couldn’t resist.

But enough about me — let’s talk about what’s in it for you guys. Like I already mentioned, Swanson’s very generously offered to provide one lucky reader with a $45 gift certificate to spend on whatever they choose, so go ahead and enter the Rafflecopter giveaway below if you want a chance to win!

The giveaway ends at midnight on Sunday, July 27, and is open internationally. I’ll be announcing the winner on Monday, July 28th. Good luck! πŸ˜€

    I would stock up on nut butter..no reason needed ;). That being said, I’d stock up on Justin’s because it’s not available at all in London, Dubai or Mumbai i.e. places where I stock up in!

    Would you believe I had never heard of Swanson before right now!? Woe is me; I clearly live under a rock. All I need to do to now, is wrap my head around the difference in money and I’m sorted. Argh πŸ™ .
    In my dreams I would get Bob’s Red Mill coconut flour (I am still hunting – unsuccessfully!).
