Dear Fubbles Bubbles,
I have loved
bubbles ever since I first watched Glinda arrive over the rainbow and dab-smack
in the middle of Munchkin Village. I
coveted Willy Wonka’s Bubble Room with biblical impurity. Don Ho may have been singing to me when he
crooned Tiny Bubbles.
But then I
had kids.
Kids ruin
everything. My precious bubbles? The
kids drank them. They stomped and popped
them. They lost the wands, misplaced the caps, but worst of all?
They spilled
them.
They spilled my bubbles.
These soapy
little spheroids of happiness were treated like dirt until I discovered that most
wondrous of products: your Fubbles Bubbles.
I just
wanted to let you know that peace, love, and unicorns have been restored to the
universe because of Fubbles.
So thank
you.
Thank you so
much.
Now off to
blow more bubbles!
Marianne

So did Fubbles Bubbles respond?
Or did they ignore me as they would any wackadoodle escapee?
OH MY GOD.
I think Fubbles Bubbles may be my favorite company ever. Not only did they write back to say how much they enjoyed my letter, they sent this:
Now before the poor company goes bankrupt from everyone writing to say how much they love Fubbles Bubbles (as most moms do), I would suggest you find your own happy place, your own favorite company. And write them.
But Fubbles Bubbles?
They are all mine.
Marianne's First Week Score = 5 points
Tiny Bubbles...in the wine (hiccup) makes me feel happy (hiccup)...oops a little early for the bubbly, just drowning my sorrows this week!
ReplyDeleteI've got my eye on you, Super-Competitor!
DeleteGood lord! I hope you love bubbles as much as you say you do! And good on Fubbles for their sense of humour. :)
ReplyDeleteI love a company that laughs!
DeleteI follow Andrea (and now you) and after reading her letter to Hanes had to pop over. What is the fun of reading only one person's contest letters?
ReplyDeleteWow. Fubbles sent you the party pack of bubbles. SCORE! Congratulations on reaching out and touching their funny bone.
This is a great series!
Thank you & welcome to the orange blog! :)
DeleteHoly crap. You are hysterical!
ReplyDeleteTotally am. ;)
DeleteI have never heard of Fubbles Bubbles and I won't be writing to them until I have a grandchild -- which may never happen. I like the Hanes Underwear letter just as much as this one. I think Andrea should be awarded some honorary undies.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
She should! Don't count Andrea out early - she's got some tricks up her sleeve!
DeleteMy child is well beyond bubbles, but my dogs find them a hoot!
ReplyDeleteBubble-eating dog? Should be on CNN!
Delete5 POINTS!!!!! SCORE!!! You're off to a roaring start. Excellent letter. Off to visit Andrea's now...
ReplyDelete-andi
I'm BRINGING IT, Andi! Say hi to Andrea for me! :)
DeleteAwesome! Do you think I would get the same result if I sent such a letter to KitchenAid?
ReplyDeleteDO IT!
