One Girl Can’s 5th Annual IWANTtoBE event 
Free Blizzard Day from Dairy Queen
On July 27th Dairy Queen’s iconic frozen treat, the Blizzard, will celebrate its 25th birthday. To mark the occasion, Canadian Olympic gold medalist MaÑ‘lle Ricker will be handing out free mini Blizzards to everyone that stops by TD Plaza (at Georgia and Granville) between 11:30am and 1:00pm. The Blizzardmobile will also be on site to get those caramel, candy bar, cookie chunk cravings flowing.
Dairy Queen is active in the community and they even sponsored Blogathon Vancouver last year, stopping by with treats for the entire blogging crew. They have also given me two $25 gift cards to give away to my readers.
Here’s how to enter to win one of two gift cards:
Remember to stop by that day for your free treat and donations to the Children’s Miracle Network will be gratefully accepted on site. Follow @DQCanada on Twitter for updates or to see if the Blizzardmobile will be swinging through your hometown this summer.
**Please note: As mentioned above, the free mini Blizzards are only being handed out at the TD Plaza and not at local DQ locations. They will have a supply of 5,000 Blizzards for the giveaway.**
Update My winners are Alex & Mila, congratulations and I hope everyone got to sample some Blizzards the other day!
I will draw two contest winners July 28th.

I love DQ!! Thanks for the chance to win! 🙂
Free Blizzards? How could I not?
yum yum last week I had a mint oreo cookie dough blizzard. It was so good I had to sit for a while after and concentrate on regular breathing
sweet!
Are the free Blizzards only downtown? So not at the other locations around town?
The other free blizzard location will be at B.C. Children’s Hospital. Dairy Queen is a huge supporter of the Miracle Network.
It is not at a specific DQ location, but in the square at Georgia and Granville.
i am so hungry for sugar right. i wish i had a blizzard ASAP. or i could wait to win this contest.
fine. i shall wait. meow!
is this contest limited to those in CA or can people from the US participate as well?

I’m leaving a comment cause I like ice cream mixed with stuff!
Haven’t had a Blizzard in years…must compare to the newer ice cream treats to see if it’s true that they just don’t make ’em like they used to.
Yummm I had a midnight truffle blizzard and it was delicious!
Blizzard are delicious!

Yay! Dairyqueen! As a kid I always wanted to know how they did the curly top on the top of the ice cream cones…it looks like the little girls hair from the grinch stole christmas
Nice hoodie!
Awesome, count me in!
We used to always bet a box of dilly-bars whenever we had a bet as kids growing up. Would love this gift certificate
Yummy for the summer!
I have yet to successfully finish a full blizzard on my own… this may be it!
Just had an Oreo Cheesequake blizzard yesterday! Delicious as always 🙂

Dairy Queen ice cream cakes are staples @ family bday parties! *fingers crossed* that I get a GC…it’ll definitely come in handy…lots of bday parties in the next while 😛

Too bad for some of us who don’t work downtown. We’ll miss the celebration.

Blizzards are big enough to share for 2 people – healthier that way too.
Yummy!
Yum Blizzards!!!
Dairy Queen has been my family’s favourite dessert for years! This gift card would help!
MMM – DQ and summertime – they go hand in hand!
Shared on FB :))
Love those blizzards!
Love DQ blizzards!
My kids cant get enough of this treat
Shared on FB. I love DQ! -I’m even a blizzard fanclub member haha
Shared on facebook!!! Now can I have a blizzard???
Blizzard’s are a really great Dairy Treat, although I could say that about even the simple original cone….it has been pleasing me for many more than 25 years and because it is ice milk it fits nicely into any diet plan that I might be on.
COOL treat for the hot summer days !
never had a blizzard before… would love to try!
yum yum
Can taste it now! Woo hoo!
Shared on facebook! Just left downtown before I read this post too bad
Shared on Facebook! 🙂
Do the Deee EEE Q – do the DQ!
Too bad I’m not downtown to take advantage of that! Perfect weather for it!
Think of the number of OREO brownie earthquakes I could have… and possibly share with others. Yummmmm.
I should have run down there but I am sweating just thinking of it…and drooling.
Yummy blizzards and DQ cakes.
Curious…I’ve never tried a blizzard…
I shared and tweeted! My kids would love a gift card! I hope we can win.
YUM! love DQ
I heart DQ!
Having always enjoyed DQ more DQ would be Fantastic! my family used to go to the DQ at 13th & Main in the 60’s (I think the first one in Vancouver?) and get Dilly Bars, used to be a wooden stick and if it had “FREE” written on the stick you got a FREE Dilly Bar one of my older sisters won one we were all so excited, delicious memories 🙂
I was too lazy to make the trek up to Granville for my Blizzard today (not to mention back-to-back meetings). So a GC would be fab! I wasn’t too lazy
to retweet. 😉
drip it ! lick it ! sip it! DQ
DQ – Now i want some.
Blizzards are so good, too bad I don’t live near TD Plaza.
Love DQ, dipped cones are my fav!
i <3 DQ!!!!
DQ – our kids always got DQ when they were disqualified at swim meets.
Yum!
Facebooked & tweeted – thank you 😀

I hope I win. I love Dairy Queen.
I’d love to win, thank you! We never had free blizzard days around my area!
