House Party

They always say, there's no such thing as getting anything free....well, I'm here to disagree!!  Do I have to put in some work...of course!  But, it's absolutely, totally worth it!  What am I talking about???  House Party of course!!  House Party is this awesome company, that partners with major companies, so that people can try out their products, and share them with others to try!  SERIOUSLY!  

Here's what you do!  First, go to the House Party website.  If you aren't a member, become one!  It's free!!  Then...sign up for parties that are "open for application".  I sign up for any party that I would be interested in...and no, that's not all of them.  They are all different...I've seen parties for Pull-ups, make up, coffee, Smirnoff, etc...  You do have to agree to abide by their rules.  Be of age (especially if it's for alcohol), have the party, not try to get multiple party packs, upload a photo from the party, etc.  When you get chosen to host a party, you need to have at least 10 email addresses ready to go!  These are the first people you will invite to your party.  Then...you sit back and wait to get your party pack!  Inside, you will find lots of freebies, for you, the host(ess), and your guests!  Then, you need to prepare for your party.  I always bake cupcakes (go figure!!).

I have applied for a LOT of parties...and unfortunately  I don't get chosen to host them all.  But, I have been chosen to host 3 parties.  The first party I got chosen for, was my very first application!  I hosted a Shutterfly party.  All my guests came over with pictures uploaded to their laptops (or Shutterfly accounts), then they got to make an 8" x 8" photo book and 10 photo cards.  The best part...it was absolutely FREE!  My next party, was a Zatarain's party.  They sent me a Zatarain's food selection, and I cooked it up for my guests.  And, my latest party is a Soda Stream party!  Yes...really!!  They sent me a Soda Stream Source machine, the co2 canister, 3 bottles, 30 sample sizes of flavors, and LOTS and LOTS of goodies to give away at the party!!  Seriously...this was at least a $150 prize pack!  And it's mine to keep after my party!  I'm having my friends/family come over to try it out this weekend.

So, what exactly are you waiting for???  Go visit House Party...and invite me to your next get together!  :)  Good luck!
