This Peeps Sweepstakes is Basically Willy Wonka's Competition

You know the movie and the dream prize. When the kids win a tour of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory and see where all of the magic happens.

Well, this contest isn't hosted by Willy Wonka, instead it's by Peeps. You know... those little neon marshmallow birds? Peeps is giving you the chance to feel like you're living the candy factory fantasy.

According to United Way, the company sponsoring the 'Peeps Helping Peeps Sweepstakes', if you are the winner here is the prize -

Trip for four to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania
Exclusive PEEPS® Factory tour
$250 shopping spree at PEEPS AND COMPANY® Store
Plus, hotel and airfare, if needed

So how do you enter to win a chance to figure out how those little marshmallows get into that bird shape, here's what you have to do according to Bustle -

Until April 8, you can enter the Peeps Helping Peeps sweepstakes three different ways: Donate $5 to United Way by texting “peepsunited” to the number 40403; donate $5 to United Way online; or mail a 3x5 card with your name, mailing address, email address, and phone number to United Way Peeps Sweepstakes Dept. S7794, PO Box 4006, Grand Rapids MN 55730-4006. Each entry grants you one chance to win; the more times you enter (and, subsequently, the more times you donate), the greater your chance of winning. The winner will be notified sometime around April 12, with their name being officially announced on April 18 at United Way’s Day of Caring event.

Good luck and if you win please let me know how they get the marshmallows to look like a bird!
