Join us for a #GoldfishMoments Twitter Party!

September 26, 2012 By Lena

Me and Reid (with his Nemo-inspired top, of course!)

Last week, I did something that I haven’t done since my 16th birthday – I threw a party at a movie theatre.

(In case you were wondering, in 1994 we saw Naked Gun 33 1/3. Yes, I am that old.)

This time around, my guest list was *slightly* longer; I advertised the event via social media vs. passing notes in Science class; the movie was in 3D, something that required red and blue glasses 20 years ago; and the biggest distinction – we had the awesome opportunity to munch on delicious (and highly addictive) Goldfish Pretzels!

(Okay, perhaps the biggest distinction is that I no longer wear doc martens and a mood ring.)

Nevertheless, I had the pleasure of joining my amazing readers, friends and family for an exclusive screening of Finding Nemo in 3D.

The theatre was buzzing with adorable children of all ages, ready to spend the night with their favourite clownfish and Goldfish! Yummy snacks, a free movie and time with family and friends – yes, it was pretty awesome!

I wanted to thank everyone who took time out of their busy weeknight to spend an evening with us. And, special thanks to Goldfish Pretzels for making it happen! I’ve received so many kind e-mails and tweets from attendees who didn’t realize just how delicious the snacks really were – think they’re great now? Try dipping them in melted cheese! (#sogood)

In case you missed the event, fear not! Please join us for a #GoldfishMoments Twitter Party on Tuesday, October 2nd at 8pm EST. It’s no secret that Goldfish crackers have been known to unleash smiles (and stop the tears!), often saving the day by satisfying a snack attack and helping parents create special moments with their kids.  We call these our #GoldfishMoments – and we’ll be chatting about YOUR Goldfish Moments at the Twitter Party.

(We may also have a few AMAZING prizes up our sleeves – trust me, you won’t want to miss this one!)

*Please be sure to enter your Twitter Handle “@yourTwitterhandle” in the Link/Blog Title field, and your Twitter URL “www.twitter.com/yourtwitterhandle” in the Link Field*


I received a stipend from Campbell Canada, the makers of Goldfish crackers, for my participation. Campbell Canada has provided all prizes in relation to this feature and I am the administrator of the promotion.
