Today is apparently National Lollypop Day–not too bad of a choice of a thing to give its own day. However, just like “every day is Kid’s Day” some things don’t really need any special attention. So, this particular ‘Day’ goes one step further. See’s Candies, the makers of those wonderfully delicious little chocolates, is celebrating with a contest. Read the press release that follows to see how you can win a trip to the traditional home (aka the chocolate factory) of the sweet-to-eat treats.
