The holiday season is officially upon us which means that all sorts of holiday treats are coming to store shelves in anticipation of gatherings and celebrations.

The brand is offering customers a chance to win $10,000 as well as a visit from Mr. Peanut and the Nutmobile for their holiday party.

In terms of treats, Planters is bringing back four of their holiday favorites — Brittle Nut Medley, Holiday Nut Crunch, Winter Spiced Mix, and Holiday Trio Pack — as well as introducing two new treats.
