How many of you are out there last minute Christmas shopping for the perfect gift for your husband, brother, kids or the video game lover in your life? Have I found the gift for you!! Xbox One has come out with a game everyone will love. Forza Motorsports 5 is partnering up with M&M’s to make gift giving even more fun and affordable. Right now if you buy Forza 5 and a big delicious bag of M&M’s in any flavor you get a $10.00 e-gift card. I will be the first to admit I am the absolute worst at rebates. Copying the receipts, finding a stamp and taking something to the mailbox just never happens with me. This is no longer a problem for me with the Buy, Snap, Redeem offer!! I bought the product at my local Wal-Mart, took a picture of my receipt with my phone and texted it to the number given and the next day had an e-gift card sent to my phone!! Easy peezey lemon squeezey!! I hope this is the wave of the future because I am in love!!

Lucky me I now have a present wrapped and ready under my Christmas tree and a gigantic bag of Peanut Butter M&M’s. Now snacks and video games go hand in hand in our house and M&M’s are great by themselves but make an even yummier snack in these fabulous cookies. They can be made with any variety of M&M candy but peanut butter is our personal favorite. Try making them while you have your next family game night with Forza Motorsports 5. I am sure you won’t be disappointed.
