Go2Girlz Holiday Wish List: The Kitchen Edition

December 11, 2007 by Jen

AIR MILES Reward Miles (Okay, we know it’s not kitchen-related, but still!)

Everybody loves to get free stuff, right? And we love it even more if we can get free stuff while buying other stuff! If it sounds too good to be true, listen up: the majority of our Go2Girlz Holiday Wish List testing panel collect AIR MILES reward miles. They’re smart and savvy and they know they can get an incredible array of free stuff (from gadgets to attractions tickets to travel) just by showing their AIR MILES collector card when they shop at affiliated retailers.

But our Go2Girlz also know that they can earn additional AIR MILES reward miles just by shopping online at www.airmilesshops.ca. You can connect with dozens of retailers and collect even more AIR MILES when you start at www.airmilesshops.ca.

And don’t forget to check out the amazing AIR MILES travel offer exclusive to members of urbanmoms.ca when you watch the latest installment in the Women’s Intuition video series from Schick Intuition Plus, featuring an AIR MILES Travel Expert.

And Now! The Go2Girlz Holiday Wish List: Kitchen Edition

Some may say that it’s dangerous to give a woman kitchen-related gifts (you know, it implies a certain prejudice about women’s roles, and all) but if someone on your list loves being in her kitchen, then give away!

For those kitchen-o-philes on your gift list, check out these Go2Girlz-approved gift ideas from some of urbanmoms.ca’s amazing sponsors.

Cuisinart Stand Mixer:

Not surprisingly, the panel was nearly unanimous in their desire to own this marvelous gadget! In addition, the majority of Go2Girlz said they would like to give or receive a Cuisinart stand mixer as a gift this holiday season.

Now, the next items might not exactly be under the tree, but they will definitely make it onto the Go2Girlz testing panel’s dining tables this holiday.

Food Trust PEI mashed potatoes:

An amazing 100% of our Go2Gilrz Holiday testing panel said they liked the Food Trust PEI pre-cooked mashed potatoes. And the vast majority said they would also buy them for their own family dinner. Here’s what the Go2Girlz had to say:

“I am so amazed as I was the biggest skeptic”
“I would pass them off as my own”
“very yummy and all natural”
“So quick to put together with meal”
“I will look for this product when I do my shopping”

Vlasic Pickles:

We’ll admit it; this one stumped us too, at first. Until we sent the pickles out to a number of our Go2Girlz to test, along with a few holiday-inspired recipes.

The result? The vast majority of our testers said they would use Vlasic pickles in their holiday cooking. Here’s what they had to say:

"My kids loved them.  My older daughter even made a pickle song!"
"I loved the pâté recipe…delish!"
"The recipes were so creative, and tasted great!"

Sun-Rype:

This family-pleasing favourite was a big hit with our Go2Girlz panel. They tested Sun-Rype juices and fruit snacks.

The vast majority of our testers would purchase both the fruit snacks and the fruit juices, and here’s what they had to say about Sun-Rype products:

“Great way to get in some veggies”
“My kids love them”
“Natural and good”

Duncan Hines Cake & Brownie Mixes and Frosting:

Not only was this a big hit with all the Go2Girlz we sent them to, but we’re pretty sure their Go2Kidz were happy, too!

The testers were treated to three cake mixes (white, devil’s food, angel’s food), chocolate chunk brownie mix and creamy homestyle frostings.

The results? Unanimous approval! Every one of the Go2Girlz who tried these products would buy them for themselves and recommend them to a friend. Here’s what they had to say:

"The brownies? No words. I’ve never tasted anything so good…"
"The icing was very creamy with great chocolate flavor (apparently
needing no cake to support it, based on the fingerprints in the
container)"
"Microwave a cake mix? Who knew? And "greasing" the pan with icing-pure genius!"

For another great Duncan Hines cake mix idea, check out what Kath cooked up with a devil’s food cake mix and a bottle of Baileys Irish Cream!
