Sweeten Your Day with Coffee-mate $100 Giveaway

{Contest is Closed}

This is sponsored content from BlogHer and Coffee-mate.

How do you add flavor to your life? Those small things that just sweeten your days?

The way I add some flavor to my life these days is by yardsale and thriftstore shopping.  It is always the thrill of the hunt, chasing down bargains and having a mental list that I go through while out scouring the sales.  Usually I find the items on my wishlist, if I wait long enough.

Before I leave for one of these early morning treasure hunts, I grab myself a to-go cup of coffee and flavor it up just right for me.

How do you like your coffee?

I’ll admit, I have not always been a coffee drinker, so it surprises me sometimes just how much I enjoy that one cup of coffee I have each and every morning.  My hubby gets up and grinds the beans and makes a full pot of coffee every morning and when I get up, the first thing I do is go in the kitchen and make myself a nice, sweet cup of java.

No plain cup of coffee for me, it must have flavor and LOTS of sweet.  I’ll take a little coffee with my creamer, please. 🙂  I rely on Coffee-mate flavors to give some extra sweetness and mellow flavor to my coffee and that completely takes out the bitterness that coffee sometimes has for me.  These are 2 of my fave recent flavors that I picked up to use, French Vanilla and Italian Sweet Creme.  Anything creamy or vanilla-y is good for me.

Coffee is like life — it’s better when you add your flavor. With a wide variety of over 25 flavors, COFFEE-MATE is the delicious way to personalize every cup. Head over to Coffee-mate.com to find over 25 ways to add your flavor. Discover what your newest favorite could be!

We are giving away $500 on the round-up page and there are 9 other bloggers giving away $100, so don’t miss out on your chance to win.   Click over to the Blogher offers page for all the details.

For your chance to win a $100 giftcard right here on MY blog, just leave a comment on this post.

    I add a little coffeemate french vanilla, a little sugar and a little vanilla syrup. Taste just like the starbuck frappuccino with out the price tag. Gotta love coffemate because milk just doesn’t give it the creamyness to make it taste right!

    I love CoffeMate too! I make my own version of a coffee house specialty. First I put my Italian Sweet Cream CoffeeMate in my mug. Then, using my handy dandy frother I whip it up like crazy. I pour my fresh brewed Dunkin’ Donuts coffee on top. I love the way the CoffeeMate wraps around the coffee winds up on the top. It is SO good!!!

    Rhoda, I am totally addicted to coffee. I absolutely love the French Vanilla Coffee Mate. I add it to hot, frozen and even iced coffee. I can’t get enough.

    Rhoda I simply CANNOT start my day without a cup of flavored coffee, right at home in my very own kitchen – thanks to CoffeeMate. I lovelovelove any flavor except hazelnut.

    I really love flavored Coffee Mates and pretty much buy a new flavor every time it hits my local store – though I profess special love for the Tiramisu flavor (runner up – Belgian Toffee Chocolate.) As for the overall flavor in my life, I get pretty much all I need by living in the heart of NYC, LOL!

    I like my coffee black. I cant stand anything in it. My husband likes the hazelnut coffeemate. I call it his “princess juice” because it seems very high maintenance and girly to me ; )

    I love Coffee in the morning and in the afternoon. I love the flavored creamers and my favorites are the vanilla creamer and anything chocolate.

    I love coffee. I love coffee more than I should. I can understand addiction because of my love for coffee. I am from the deep South. Our society believes that when company comes, you put on the coffeepot. When I was young, I thought the highlight of my life would be when I could sit at the dining room table with my Grandmother and sip coffee. Well, Grandmother is doing her coffee sipping up in Glory now, but I still enjoy mine at my dining room table in Mississippi. In fact, all this talk about coffee has made me want a cup!

    I really like my coffee black and strong and only one cup in the a.m. However, sometimes I sneak a second cup and I like to add french vanilla just for a spark and not so strong coffee ! Yummy !

    Hazelnut for me! That’s how I like my everyday coffee. Now when it’s Fall, Pumpkin Spice. 😉

    Rhoda,

    My parents always drank coffee, but I never drank it myself until I moved out from home. A friend gave me a coffee maker as a house-warming present, and I was hooked. I love the gingerbread flavor they have out during the holidays!
