OMG this is a major coup for me. How lucky am I to be friends with the woman who invented the game Bananagrams?? It really wasn’t very long ago that we were having a coffee and talking about our respective disastrous divorces and what to do about everything when she told me that she and her father had designed a game and were having a prototype built to test it out but it was all top secret…. A few years later and Bananagrams is the UK Number ONE game according to the Financial Times, it has been translated into many different languages, is a PS game, an app and growing madly everywhere you look. Incredible. Just goes to prove that anything is possible if you have the belief (or the dream and now I’m sounding like a Disney representative).
ANYWAY, as a result in order to cheer me up for Valentine’s Day I’m allowed to offer you the chance to win a limited edition heart-shaped Bananagrams game. Instead of it’s usual Banana-shaped pouch, the game has been re-produced in a gorgeous heart-shaped fabric case to mark the most romantic day of the year. What’s more, this specific design can’t be found in any shops – so this is one of the only ways of getting your hands on one! A perfect treat for established fans of the game, as well as for anyone completely new to the Bananagrams world, to enter the competition simply:-
Follow @FamilyAffairs and @Bananagrams_UK
Send me a tweet saying why you think you deserve the heart shaped games and RT the offer as well
Leave a comment on my blog as well preferably so that I can make sure I don’t miss anyone out.
GOOD LUCK x

February 8, 2012BananaGrams have infiltrated the American South too–I spotted them in a drugstore the other day, and immediately thought of the post where you *introduced* them.
There was even a mention of them recently on http://www.textsfromlastnight.com (some ingenious folks played strip ‘banana grams’).

February 15, 2012Hi Lulu, I retweeted the offer, and I tweeted FamilyAffairs and Bananagrams (as KarinaSophia) with my compelling argument: I get married this Saturday and as BG addicts, my fiance, Bart, and I would LOVE to take this special game with us on our honeymoon! Every time I need to get a fun gift, a bottle of wine and Banana Grams is my go-to gift…. Truly love it and hope to hear from you soon! Thanks for reading!
