So, the husband will be out of the country again, for the nth time this year. I lost count of his trips this year..dumalas eh.. kaso who am I to complain? eh that’s part of his job. The only consolation for us, Duty Free shopping! CHOCOLATES!!! Reese’s specifically. I call that, blockbuster chocolate. Eh kase naman, magdala ka dito ng isang box, after 2 minutes, kagit ung box, ubos na.. Reese’s lang ang bagay na napapagkasunduan (at madalas pag- awayan) ng mga anak ko at mga kapatid ko hahaha.
I don’t know why, all these years, I thought I can only buy Reese’s at Duty Free…well not until I got an invite from Reese’s event and got to see a shelf full of Reese’s in our fave grocery.. Ignorante much? Eto pa ang isa.. akala ko it was pronounced as Reese as in Ris.. hindi pala.. eto pala ay Reese’s as in Rees-IS.
So many things to discover about our favorite chocolate. Actually, that’s the theme of their event: REDISCOVER REESE’S (Throwback Festival):
Festival? Indeed it is! The event was open to public.. yup, like your typical fiesta.. and of course it comes with games!!!
Taste that perfectly balanced sweet and salty flavor of Reese’s peanut butter cups at the Reese’s Shoot that Cup booth, where the challenge is to shoot Reese’s wrappings into the right cups.
Other exciting games, which I never had the chance to try.. SAYAAAAANG!!!!!
- Take the Reese’s booth: attendees will be challenged to jump as high as they can
- Reese’s Re-word Mash is Reese’s take on the all-time favorite Word Mash game
- Knock Out a Reese’s Cup, a ball throwing booth (a must in every fair!)
- Reese’s Throwback Wall
- Pop A Nut Bar
- Reese’s Trick Art
The Reese’s Throwback Wall is all about…. REESE’S of course!
Mommy Pehpot’s #RediscoverReeses version: Did you know that Reese’s is the #1 chocolate brand in my household? Based on the total number of boxes that my kids can consume in 5 minutes.
Sana Reese’s will have another event like this.. at sana dito naman sa may Pasig area (like Megamall haha)
soo, who loves Reese’s? Say it with me: REES-IS!

September 4, 2014 at 11:49 pmI’m so weird. Everyone I know loves Reese’s–but I don’t. Haha! Ang favorite ko talaga ay M&M’s na Almonds…which is so hard to find in my part of the Philippines. LOL. Usually sa Duty Free ko rin ito nabibili.

September 5, 2014 at 7:07 amI used to love Reese’s as a child, but now I find it too sweet for my taste. But still, it is one yummy chocolate!
M says

Mamanee San Luis says

Jade Dolor says
September 8, 2014 at 5:26 pmOoohhh! I love Reese chocolates (or anything with peanut butter actually). My hubby is also sent on trips often din. Can’t wait to go to Duty Free again soon! Nainis lang ako dun kasi they make you go all the way around to look at everything.
