Sodapalooza | Mommy and Me Monday | 379th ed

One of the things that says the start of summer around here is RaceTrac’s Sodapalooza cups coming out. We’ve mentioned before that we are big fans. It helps that it’s the closest of any kind of store to our house. There’s also another one on the way home from the gym (ice cold ice water, please!) and on the way to karate.

This weekend, the girls and I made a special trip to grab a treat for them and a little bit of electrolytes for me.

One of the best things about this RaceTrac is the crushed ice. I know, crazy, right? But, crushed ice is everything (please don’t tell my dentist). Let’s discuss the other options, too. They’ve got so many drink options. The only thing I wish they had was a non-caffeinated root beer. That’s my soda weakness. Otherwise, I’m a vitamin water or sometimes a frozen treat girl. That’s the beauty of the FreeFill-charged fun with unlimited fountain and NumbSkull frozen drink refills all summer long.

You can head over to any RaceTrac to purchase a 2017 Sodapalooza cup and experience endless ways to cool down in the summer heat. The limited-time-only cups are available at any RaceTrac location for just $11.99 and are your ticket to enjoying FREE refills of fountain and frozen beverages through July 31.

And, don’t worry. You don’t always have to bring the kids with you. Sometimes, I go solo just so I don’t have to share my cup or my time!

Pro Tip: Download the free RaceTrac Rewards app on any iOS or Android phone to receive a coupon for $2 off a Sodapalooza cup purchase. That means only $9.99 for unlimited FreeFills – seriously! And, once you save those $2 on each cup, you will find your each Sodapalooza cup also includes between $30 and $150 in exclusive coupons, depending on your location, for RaceTrac food and fun experiences unique to your area. (Like that waffle cone N is eating above. That was free, baby!)

And, sometimes, it’s okay to go to your local sno-ball stand when everybody wakes up and grab a special treat. Because, that Sodapalooza cup will be there waiting for me for the next fill up! (And after this trip, it was ice water with some crushed ice because it is HOT outside!)

Do you have your Sodapalooza cup yet this year? If not, go grab one quick and make sure to download the app so you can save $2!

Did you get in the picture this week?

GET IN THE PICTURE WITH YOUR KIDS! Who cares what you look like? Who cares how you appear? Who cares what you are wearing? JUST DO IT! Since the button code stopped working many moons ago, I took it out. But, if you are adding your link to my link list, please, as a courtesy, add a link back to my site so people can explain and link up themselves if they’d like. After all, that’s the point of the link up!

It’s time again for Mommy and Me Monday. Pop out from behind that camera and capture yourself in action with your kids.
