Giveaway: Sour Patch Kids Candy and T-Shirts

For the most part, I prefer to write about local brands on here, but hey, I have a soft spot for Sour Patch Kids, and I bet some of you do, too. A rep reached out to me recently with some candy and shirts to give away in promotion of their current marketing campaign, Sour Patch Justice, and because Sour Patch Kids are delicious and the campaign actually made me chuckle, I readily accepted. Apparently Sour Patch Kids have been going around wreaking havoc on honest, hard-working people (and cats!), and a sleazy lawyer has been brought onboard to defend the Kids. Users can upload their own evidence of Sour Patch Kids' wrongdoings, and the lawyer will respond through the end of the month. Here's the official video to get your creative juices flowing:



Don't care about uploading your evidence? Just want to win some tasty, tasty candy? No problem. I've got some prizes to give to (a few of) you: three Fork it over, Boston! readers will each receive a snazzy Sour Patch Kids t-shirt and a bag of candy.

The winner will be picked randomly from all eligible entries, and you can earn entries in any/all of the following ways:

• Leave a comment on this post - tell me what you think of Sour Patch Kids. Have they wronged you? Do you eat them by the giant bagful? Have you made any weird recipes involving them? (One entry for leaving a comment. Two entries for leaving a comment that makes me giggle.)
• Tweet about this giveaway. Please include a link to this post and my Twitter username, @blumie, so I can keep track. (One entry.)
• Publicly post on Facebook about this giveaway. Please include a link to this post, and tag the Fork it over, Boston! Facebook page in your post so I can keep track. (One entry.)

Good luck! I'll draw a winner around 9pm on Wednesday evening, August 1, so get your entries in before then.
