The snow in Japan may be starting to melt (unless you live in Hokkaido), but that doesn’t mean the snowmen have to go away. Thanks to Megmilk Snow Brand Company, you’ll be greeted by a chilly friend every morning with their limited edition snow mug campaign.
Anyone in Japan who purchases Megmilk Snow brand milk products between March 11 and May 31 and sends in a predetermined amount of special campaign marks found on the packages will have a chance to win the snowman mugs. Each mug is handmade and is designed to resemble the company’s products.
▼ So cute!
Participants who send in five campaign marks have a chance to win one mug of their choice. Those who send in 10 have a chance to win all five snowman mugs and a special tray.
▼ Ooooh, special tray.
So what are you waiting for? These mugs are too adorable to pass up! If you don’t particularly like milk, you can always make miso curry milk ramen, turn cola into clear liquid, or stage a milky fashion shoot. That’ll get you closer to a delightful smiling snowman. And if you do win one, just be sure to not fill him up with tomato juice, things will start to get gruesome real quick.
