Eating a popsicle on a hot summer day is a great way to cool down, and wearing a t-shirt printed with a big popsicle design will also help keep you cool – although you still might want the real popsicle to go along with it. This Summertime Treat t-shirt features a huge chocolate-dipped, multi-flavored popsicle on a bright blue background. There is even a little joke printed on the “stick” of the popsicle – although unfortunately, you can’t eat the rest of the pop to find out the punchline. I picked up two of these cute Threadless t-shirts (which are now out of print) some time ago to give away and never got around to it. But better late than never – especially when it comes to a giveaway!
To enter the contest, just leave a comment with your favorite type of popsicle or ice cream bar – whether it is a simple fruit juice pop or a decadent chocolate-dipped number – below. The contest ends Sunday at midnight (7/10/2011) and two winners will be randomly selected from the entries. Don’t forget to fill in your e-mail on the comment form (it will not be public), as that is how I will contact the winner, and good luck!
