SONIC’s Summer of Shakes - Beach Bag Essentials Giveaway

Milkshakes and ice cream are two of our favorite summertime treats, but enjoying such treats can often be expensive when you have to purchase one for each member of the family.  That's where Sonic Drive-In comes in and saves summer!
  
Have you heard about SONIC’s Summer of Shakes, featuring 25 different milkshake flavors to choose from?  Each delicious flavor is  hand-mixed with real ice cream and topped with whip cream and a cherry!  They are thick and delicious, full of flavor!  To make it even sweeter... SONIC shakes are half price after 8 pm all summer long.

I will admit that we have already been to Sonic seven or eight times (maybe more) to enjoy this special deal and yummy summer treat.  A few times as a family, once with the grandparents, twice with friends, and once with the cousins!  

I've had cherry cheesecake, strawberry cheesecake, chocolate cheesecake and Oreo cheesecake... Yes, I love cheesecake!  My favorite?  I'm going to go with Oreo cheesecake!  

My 12 year old son has tried a few different flavors, but hot fudge is his favorite.  My 9 year old daughter's two favorites are peanut butter and peanut butter fudge.  My husband is a dare devil and has had both vanilla and chocolate!

We always talk about the peanut butter and bacon milkshake, but we are all too afraid to order it!  I know we can't say we don't like it if we don't try it - but I just don't think we are brave enough!
   
Our family orders 4 medium shakes and our total is only $7.21!  We ordered large shakes one time and they lasted us for two desserts!  As much as we all love ice cream, they were just too big for us to finish!
