Merry Mondays
Can you find Butterbear hidden in our social media feed?
Throughout the weeks in December, we will be hiding a Christmas Butterbear in one of our Instagram posts. Every Monday we will ask our followers to locate Butterbear in our posts. They must locate Butterbear, like that image and comment on the Monday post, where they found Butterbear. A winner will be chosen at random every Wednesday so get your guesses in fast!
The Mondays will be 2nd, 9th and 20th of December.
Happy Hunting!
