Ferrero Rocher 25 Days Wrapped in Gold Facebook Sweepstakes

This post was created in partnership with Ferrero Rocher as part of the 25 Days Wrapped in Gold campaign.

I'd say 98% of us can all agree c-h-o-c-o-l-a-t-e is the bees knees, amiright?

The other 2%?

I'm not sure what to do with you.

Because chocolate is quite possibly one of my favorite things. Baked into cookies, topping my ice cream, melting in my mouth. It can completely heal a bad day. And did I mention it is one of the important ingredients of my other favorite substance to grace this earth (cough cough Nutella cough cough)?

So I'm about to get all hot and bothered over the fact that one of the premiere chocolate makers, Ferrero Rocher, is having a fabulous 24 Days Wrapped in Gold Sweepstakes over on their Facebook page. 

Why am I all hot and bothered? 

Well, firstly CHOCOLATE. 

And secondly because Ferrero Rocher is giving away one indulgent gift per day until December 25. Which means there is, like, a weeks worth of indulgent gift winning to be had.

Like, clothing, jewelry and luxury trips kind of indulgent.

So people?

Get thee now off of this blog post, head over and Enter to win on Ferrero Rocher's Facebook Page!

Gift Guide for New Girl Fans

* This post contains affiliate links.

You have figured out what to get your Mom, you've almost finished shopping for your brother, and the list is still looming for the kids. But what, pray tell, do you get a committed New Girl Fan?

Don't worry, friends.  

I've got you covered.

 Jess Day's Retro Eyeglass Frames

Jess Day has a style all unto herself, but I love her thick black spectacles. If you (or a New Girl fan you love) want to rock the look, grab a pair (or three).

Soundtrack from Wicked

This is especially useful on long random road trips to Mexico. It'll make you so Popular. Original broadway cast only (Idina and Kristin. ::swoon::)

Batman Mask

Everyone needs a Keaton in their life. Especially if it keeps them from sitting at home wiping their tears with deli meat. 

Handmade Douchebag Jar

If someone you love needs extra motivation to not make d-bag remarks, craft up a Douchbag Jar for them out of a simple Mason Jar as a friendly reminder: "JAR!" 

Even better? If you have 12 d-bag friends, you can get 12 jars for under $10.

Take-Out Menu Binder

Whether you love take out or the Chinese Restaurant in your neighborhood has waged a Menu War, bedazzle a simple black binder for a fun way to organize all of your menus.

Irish Walking Cape

If only we could be as cool as Schmidt. Be sure to hang this right next to your bath towel. And, yes, it's a real thing.

True American Game

All it takes is a (few) case(s) of beer, a bottle of liquor, the official rules (also found from other various sources) and the rearrangement (and possible demolition) of your living room. 

Really, it's the gift that keeps on giving.
