Have You Hosted A House Party Event?

Last week, I hosted my second House Party.   This one was sponsored by a DIGIORNO Pizza.  They wanted me to introduce their newest product to my friends and family…

Pizza, breadsticks and sauce—all in one box! I was planning to have a few families over for a movie night Saturday.  But Friday afternoon, I ended up with a yard full of junior high boys.  Very HUNGRY boys.  (Not that there is any other kind.) 

So, I decided to throw the pizza party for the boys and give the coupons to their moms.  A win-win idea.  The boys eat, and later, their moms save. 

I rationalized that this was still following the spirit of House Party, because I was, indeed, introducing lots of different families to the product.  Besides, we all know kids can deliver incredibly convincing sales pitches in front of those freezer cases in the store.  The verdict?  They loved the cheese and pepperoni pizzas.  But the breadsticks, especially the cheese ones, were the biggest hit of all! 

So way to go DIGIORNO!  We would definitely pick up the pizza and breadsticks combo again!

The Pizza Supreme, however, was despised by all.  In fact, I threw most of it away. 

And there you have it.  The honest opinion of our family and the rest of the gang that regularly hangs out here.  Btw, I wonder if we can claim them as dependents…just kidding.

House Parties are fun, and if you aren’t familiar with them, you might want to see if any would work for you.  You can check out some of the upcoming events here. 

I have my eye on the Hasbro Game Night Party coming up in June.  You can’t apply for this one, yet.  But you can sign up to receive an email when they begin accepting applications.  You can do that with any of the upcoming parties, by the way.

As far as disclaimers go, DIGIORNO did send me coupons through House Party for the free pizza, along with a box of other goodies to share with our friends.  But there was no requirement to blog about it.  I simply like the House Party program and thought some of you might, too.
