When I saw that McDonalds had once again teamed up with Dreamworks and Shrek, I ended up eating lunch there every day for 3 days. And one of those days, I had dinner there as well. All because I wanted to get the set of 4 Shrek glasses. Puss In Boots, Shrek, Fiona and Donkey, to use as the glassware whenever I finally end up moving into my own place. Doing so completely burned me out on McDonalds, but I had all 4 glasses sitting in their bags on the dining room table, just begging me to move out.
Two days later they were recalled and consumers were told to stop using them because they contained high levels of cadmium which could affect you even by touching it. Looks like those glasses will just be in a display case at the new place…
In my quest to get all 4 glasses, I ordered the 10 piece McNugget nearly every time, in order to get the 25 Snapfish photos with the code. My brother wasn’t too pleased with this as he likes to collect the Happy Meal toys. (We managed to get 2 – Shrek and Rumpelstiltskin)
However, today I headed over to She Scribes for my daily blogger catch-up and saw that she was giving away some Shrek prizes! First prize is the happy meal toys, as well as Shrek the Third! Second and Third prizes is a Shrek Forever After movie poster!
