Smart and Final Ambiance Coffee Giveaway!!!!

Filed Under (giveaway) by NerdMom on 30-01-2011

Look at all this coffee goodness!

Over the holidays I received a generous basket of coffee from Smart and Final to celebrate the launch of their new Ambiance coffees!

With the chaos of the Christmas season is was great to have a treat just for me! I got 6 different types: French Roast, Hazelnut, French Vanilla, Kona Style, Gourmet Supreme, House Blend. My personal favorites were the Hazelnut and the French Vanilla! They were very good and are the perfect base for a coffee treat in the morning.

I think my favorite was to have the hazelnut coffee was with creamer and a squirt of peppermint whipped cream. It was so warming and delightful! And don’t judge me;). While it is a very fancy drink, it is still better for you than what you get at Starbucks. Plus it is only a fraction of the price!

While that is all good, how about I get to the giveaway?

1 winner will win a gorgeous basket that is just like the one I received. But there is something even better….that 1 winner will also win a $150 GIFTCARD TO SMART AND FINAL!!!!!! Yes, I am yelling but this is big news! I can get a lot of food for the NerdFamily with $150! I am sure that you are wondering what you have to do to enter this fantabulous giveaway. Well, it is pretty easy. Just make sure that you enter quickly because the giveaway closes February 8, 2011 at Midnight pst.

Mandatory Entry: Now you must do this in order to be entered at all! Just tell me about your favorite coffee moment!

Extra Entries: This is such an awesome giveaway that I am sure you would like more ways to enter. Make sure you leave an extra comment for each entry.

(I was compensated to run this giveaway but all the opinions are mine!)

  1. Every moment with coffee is a good coffee moment!!!


  2. The first cup of coffee in the morning is the best but if I am enjoying it on a wonderful fall day sitting on a porch looking at the mountains that is perfect. Unfortuantely I live in Florida and that doesn’t happen often.


  3. I like coffee, but I think I enjoy it even more on a cold winter day sitting on the couch with a hot peppermint mocha bundled up with blankets. Oh how relaxing…..just the thought makes me want to do it now! :)


  4. I posted your giveaway on my blog.

  5. Let’s see, everyday is my favorite coffee moment! I love coffee, drink it every day and drink too much of it. I love latte’s and coffee (no sugar added). I love the way it smells and tastes. I love it hot, I love it cold. What can I say, I am a coffeeaholic!

  13. My 3 year old Micah loves to share a cup of coffee with me. As long as it’s decaf I don’t mind him starting out so young. We will sit at the table in the morning, each of us with a coffee cup and spoon (to Micah the spoon is the most important part) and drink our coffee and talk about whatever comes to mind. It’s our special time together and we both treasure these mornings. He will tell anyone who asks that he likes coffee and he likes his talks with Mommy. I guess in our household, coffee keeps my relationship with my son strong! Coffee and kids…who could ask for more.


  14. Don’t know how to tweet or twitter but I like your facebook page…I also posted you on my facebook page. It’s the best that I could do with my current computer knowledge… :o )

  67. My favorite coffee moment is in the mornings after I drop my kids off at school when I stop in to get a cup of delicious (old fashioned) coffee from a local little diner. They even let me bring in my own big mug and they fill it up..still only charge me 1.25! (take that Starbucks!)

  94. My favorite coffee moment is Saturday mornings. That is when my husband and I get up early to make a fabulous pot of coffee and then spend the morning relaxing with coffee in bed and chat about the week. We don’t do coffee during the week so this is really a treat. Plus with the buzz of the week with work and all that is our time to enjoy each other.

  109. Hi, Great Giveaway. I would have to say my favorite coffee moment is when I open a fresh package or can of coffee. I love that burst of aroma. I drink a lot of coffee so fortunately I get to experience that moment frequently. On the down side, so does my checkbook. I’d love to win coffee!
