Webkinz Berry Fest 2017 Prizes

Berry Fest 2017 kicked off today, and I’m already having “berry much” fun! 🙂 I’m loving this year’s Berry Fest prizes, and it’s great that floaty clicky prizes are back in the rooms and arcade. It makes it sooo much easier to collect all of the day’ prizes.

If you’ve been on Webkinz today, or remember Berry Fest activities from the past, then you know that there are 6 kinds of berries you’ll find floating around Webkinz World:

Berry-Festival-Berries

But…the REAL stars of the show are the Goo Goo Berry and the Polarberry. Why? Because feeding one of these types of berries to your pet will earn you a special prize.

There are two different sets of prizes, but they’re basically the same – just swap out one berry type for the other.

Here’s a picture of the Goo Goo Berry prizes from Webkinz Newz:

Goo-Goo-Berry-Prizes

And here’s a look at this year’s Polarberry prizes:

Polarberry-Prizes

As you can see, the prizes are divided into three categories: common, uncommon and rare, which means that you’ll win more of the ice cream cone than you will the car.

I’ve had great luck so far this morning, and I’ve got 3 Goo Goo Berry Cars total. The only prize I don’t have yet is the Polarberry Car.

If you’re wondering how I could have already won so many prizes, it’s because I’ve saved up my Goo Goo Berries and Polarberries from previous years. I like to keep my “special” foods and store them in rooms filled with refrigerators, like this:

This morning I went searching through my refrigerators and found plenty of both kinds of berries stored away:

Let’s take a look at some of the prizes you can win when you feed your pet a Goo Goo Berry or Polarberry during Berry Fest!

First are the preserves…these are fun because you can rotate them and get four different looks:

Here are the 4 ways you can display the Polarberry Preserves:

Next is the chairs, which have a cute country/farmhouse look to them:

You can see that these wooden chairs are adorned with a cushion, and the cushion is decorated with either Goo Goo Berries or Polarberries.

Last up is the Goo Goo Berry Car (I’ll update my post when I finally get a Polarberry car). Take a look at this gif to see what the Goo Goo Berry Car looks like when your pet rides inside (notice the window on the back!):

Winners: Puffer Vest Giveaway

Hello Webkinz friends! I’m sorry I’ve been away for a while. Sometimes I have to go out in the real world and be an adult. 🙂 Hopefully I won’t have to do that again for a bit!

Here are the two rooms that won the drawing for a Ganz eStore Puffer Vest!

Both of these rooms look like such a fun place to play!

Check out this awesome winter wonderland where you can walk through the snowy trees or take a turn on the Snow Fort Slide – which is a Winterfest Cookie grand prize! And look at that cute little panda hat this Webkinz pet is wearing. I believe that was a clothing item available in the 2016 Golden Cracker Gift. Look closely and you can see the piles of snowballs all ready for a snowball fight!

Our other winner is an indoor room. You can bounce in the beautiful winter bouncy castle (the prize for the December Deluxe Monthly Challenge) or jam out with your friends on the frozen guitar and drum set. I also love the beautiful grand staircases leading down into the room. So pretty!

puffer-vest-room-2

Thank you to my winners for sharing these awesome room designs with us! If you want a Puffer Vest, head over to the Ganz eStore where you can pick one up – but only for a limited time!

If you need eStore points, now is a great time to buy them. You can get a free Amethyst Wardrobe when you buy 33,000 or more eStore points between now and February 15th!

Congratulations to rainbowtwingirls on winning the Ornament Outfit Contest!

Rainbowtwingirls submitted this beautiful Christmas room for me to share with my readers:

Rainbowtwingirls took the Home for the Holidays theme and really glammed it up with a fabulous collection of Christmas trees. That magnificent red sleigh that the reindeer is riding in was the special prize for December’s Deluxe Member monthly challenge.

Did you notice the gingerbread grandfather clock against the wall? You can buy that with the moneyz you earn by playing games on Webkinz Newz.

This really looks like a fun and festive place to spend Christmas! Check out all those presents under the tree, and there’s even a piano for a Christmas carol sing-along!

Thank you for sharing this incredible room with us, rainbowtwingirls! I hope you enjoy your ornament outfits.

The contest might be over, but you can still get your own ornament outfits at the Ganz eStore.

Webkinz Trading Cards Series 2 – full of surprises!

One of my Webkinz pals clued me into the fact that Ollie’s (a discount/closeout store) had boxes of Webkinz Trading cards for $3.99 each!

I don’t have an Ollie’s near my house, so when I went to visit my sister a few weeks ago we stopped by her local Ollie’s, and I picked up 6 boxes of cards. I wish I had bought more!

Of course, when you open that many packs of trading cards, you’re going to get a lot of repeat prizes, and a lot of the Wshop items I won I just sold back for the kinzcash. BUT, along the way I’ve unlocked a couple of cool Series 2 prizes that I didn’t know about.

Let’s start with the Glam Boutique Bag:

glam-boutique-bag

I’ve never seen one of these before, so I didn’t know what to expect. I dragged the bag into my pet’s room, and it popped open to reveal a selection of exclusive items from the Glam Boutique theme.

I chose the Salon Styling Station because I think it will look good in a girl’s bedroom.

A similar prize I won was the KinzStyle Shopping Bag:

kinz-style-shopping-bag

This time when I dragged the bag into my pet’s room, I was transported to the Kinzstyle Shop where I was able to select one item of clothing.

I chose the Shimmering Gold Dress because it’s really pretty, and it’s the most expensive item in the KinzStyle Outlet.
