The creator of Jelly Belly is retiring and giving away a candy factory, Willy Wonka style. He's holding a contest where people can pay to search for necklaces hidden in each state . . . and the 50 winners will be entered in a drawing for the candy factory!!!
Heres the full story: A guy named David Klein is the founder of Jelly Belly jelly beans. He's getting ready to retire. So he's giving away one of his candy factories!
Here's how the contest works. He's gone to all 50 states and hidden a special necklace in each state. For $50 at TheGoldTicket.com, you can get a ticket to a scavenger hunt for the necklace in your state. (If the link is not working, it's because the website has been having some connectivity issues.)
And if you find it, you get $5,000 . . . plus you're entered in the grand prize drawing, where one of the 50 winners will get the candy factory.
(To be clear, this is not a Jelly Belly contest or factory. Klein just came up with the name "Jelly Belly" years ago.)
