Trop50 True Resolutions & $50 SpaWeek G/C Giveaway (2/11)

by Marcie on January 20, 2012

How many of you made a New Year’s resolution? Better yet, now that we’re more than halfway through January, how many of you are still sticking with your resolution? This year I have committed myself to losing 20lbs, via calorie counting and exercising, by the time my nephew arrives in June. Many friends always tell me I don’t have to lose weight but you know as well as I do that it’s all about how you feel about yourself. So far I am down just over 3lbs. and still trying my best daily although with my insane love for food, that seems to always be a constant struggle .

Trop50 got its name as a result of the marriage of Tropicana and “50 percent” less sugar and calories. Tropicana Trop50 is a breakthrough innovation from Tropicana that offers 50 percent less sugar and calories, and no artificial sweeteners. Trop50 is the first juice beverage to be naturally sweetened with an all-natural stevia-based sweetener. Trop50 is designed to help manage weight goals by offering reduced sugar and calories, without sacrificing great taste. At 50 calories per eight-ounce glass, Trop50 not only tastes great, but helps you feel good. Each 8-ounce glass of Trop50 squeezes in a full day’s supply of vitamin C and is also a good source of antioxidant vitamin E.

Not a regular orange juice fan?
No worries, since Trop50 also comes in the following varieties

• Trop50 Pomegranate Blueberry
• Trop50 Pineapple Mango
• Trop50 Lemonade
• Trop50 Raspberry Lemonade
• Trop50 Farmstand Apple
• Trop50 Red Orange
• Trop50 Raspberry with Green Tea
• Trop50 Peach with White Tea
• Trop50 Pear Lychee with White Tea

Trop50 wants to hear all about your True Resolutions and that means tell the truth! Behind every New Year’s resolution is a secret motivation. Do you really want to lose weight to feel healthier or is it really to fit into that a-MAY-zing dress that’ll make your ex do a double take? This year, Trop50 True Resolutions celebrates the real reasons behind New Year’s resolutions. There’s no reason to sugarcoat the truth, only reasons to be your fabulous self! Share your secret motivation on the Trop50 Facebook Page and you’ll earn a coupon for $1 off Trop50 for yourself and 50¢ off coupons for up to 50 of your friends. You can even submit incognito with a fierce disguise. Bonus: Whether you submit a resolution or not, you can also enter a sweepstakes for a chance to win a $1000 gift card!

Limit one (1) $1 coupon per person/email address/Facebook account. Coupons available while supplies last. NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. Ends 1/31/2012. See Official Rules for details.

Buy It
You can find all of the awesome Trop50 selections in your local grocer, near the orange juice of course!
