AUSTIN, Minn., Sept. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- As the MR.
PEANUT® character settles into his new home at Hormel Foods in
Minnesota, he is inviting fans to
stay at his vacation home, INN a NUTshell, and enjoy all that the
land of 10,000 lakes has to offer.
For the first time ever, the iconic NUTMOBILE™ vehicle will
transform into the nuttiest living quarters that transports you
into an overnight, immersive PLANTERS® brand experience, of course
filled with plenty of PLANTERS® brand products for guests to enjoy.
The stay also includes a $1,500
travel stipend and can-nut miss activities where guests can
enjoy the beautiful scenery in Minnesota. The best part? This one-of-a-kind,
nutty stay is available for $3.59,
the cost of a jar of PLANTERS® peanuts.
"As the PLANTERS® brand makes Minnesota home, we want our fans to experience
the state like never before with this unique stay," said
Rafik Lawendy, head of marketing for
the PLANTERS® brand. "We are always looking for ways to add
substance to fans' lives and what better way to do that than with
this unforgettable experience at the INN a NUTshell."
On September 17 at 12 p.m. CDT, one fan will be able to book a
two-night stay at the INN a NUTshell from October 1 through October 3 by visiting
MrPeanutInnANutshell.com. You'll have to be quick, because only one
fan and a guest will be able to stay in the iconic 26-foot-long
peanut on wheels waterfront in Duluth,
Minn.
In addition to opening his vacation home, the MR. PEANUT®
character and the makers of the PLANTERS® brand will continue to
reward Little Acts of Substance in his new home state, the land of
10,000 lakes, with a $10,000 donation
to Conservation Minnesota. The PLANTERS® brand recognizes the
organization's continued efforts to add substance to the community
by working with local residents, leaders and legislators to protect
Minnesota's land and wildlife.
