Dealers: If you were a dealer last year... you will have the first option to register, and we plan to give you the option to register for the the room you had last year! Then we will open it up to new dealers!! (The plan for next year has changed a little, and we think you are going to LOVE the new plan!!)
Attendees & absentees: We plan again on doing a special first day registration ... so in order to get the special dispenser plan on registering the first day!!
The charity dispenser will again be offered at the time of registration.
We have made some changes for next year, but we think that the new changes will create an even more exciting event!!
We have worked out most of the details with the hotel, and the hotel has agreed to honor last years rates! This is huge!!! Since the hotel offers AN AMAZING FREE BREAKFAST & FREE (alcoholic) DRINKS & SNACKS EVERY NIGHT!
We are working on something special for the Pez kids too!!

A Jolly Pezzy good time with Jessica & Juan...

With all of the gatherings happening around the world Jessica & Juan have opened their home to celebrate a wonderful Christmas gathering.
With a fun Christmas theme and familiar atmosphere Jessica is sharing the behind the scenes with us, Thank you Jessica!


The Christmas Pez Gathering all started by me wanting to hang out with Pezzy friends and my husband wanting to show everyone the amazing Christmas Decorations/lights he puts up every year... 4 years later here we are going on 
The 4th Christmas PEZ Gathering!!!



The 4th Annual Christmas Pez Gathering is just a few short days away. This year has gone by so fast. I'm so excited that it is almost here! I've been working like crazy to make sure I have everything ready to go! 

The Official Gathering is on December 3rd at 4:00pm.... The Christmas Gathering is always on the first Saturday of December. But on the Friday before the gathering everyone who is in town meets up and goes to dinner then we head back to my house to sit by the fire pit and just hang out.

I've been packing up all the gathering packs and putting together all the bingo prizes. We are having an extra round of bingo this year that has some sweet pez in it!






We start out the gathering by everyone setting up any pez they brought to sell and then we eat street tacos that I have had catered for the party :) I also make a bunch of different types of cookies and sweets. 
We have an endless supply of drinks and food all night long. 
There is always a door prize to give away and this year it is an Ugly Christmas Sweater Contest. The person who has the
UGLIEST Christmas Sweater 
will win the door prize and boy oh boy is it a cool prize! 

We also play a game called the White Elephant game.
Everyone attending the gathering must bring a Pezzy gift with a 15 dollar value or higher and wrap it up all pretty but don't put a tag on it... 
By the end of the game everyone will have a new pez gift to take home with them.

also play BINGO!!! You have to have bingo at a pez gathering! We usually have 4 rounds of bingo and 1 mega bingo.... But this year We are going to do 4 regular rounds of bingo 1 mega bingo and 1 super special amazing bingo!!!!!

I wish I could win these prizes!!!! It gets pretty intense once people start winning and opening up their bingo bags to see what they have won😉

After all the games are done we all just hang out and talk and laugh the night away. We sit outside by the fire pit and catch up on what's happening in everyone's life.

Christmas is my favorite time of year and I'm so thankful that I get to bring some Christmas Joy into other Pezhead's lives
🎄

FINALLY, the new POWER RANGERS are here!
The first time we saw them on display was at the Sweet and Snacks Expo in 2015, yes we have waited really long, but the waiting was worth it.

 and Kimberly the Pink Ranger

The Power Rangers were introduced for the first time in 1993 on Television,

Super Mario Pez two new dispensers *Now available*

UPDATE- Mario sets are now available in Slovenia, and more  Euro countries will follow soon :)
As we previously reported,
two new PEZ dispensers will be added to the Nintendo MARIO Set,
Princess Peach
and
Donkey Kong,
today PEZ International surprised us with a first look picture, and now we can see the full set, and what the two new ones will look like.

When we got the news that Donkey Kong will be added to the line up, we were wondering if he would look like, like the mini Donkey Kong from the Japan mini series, now we can see PEZ has not used the same mold, small changes have been made, and we cant wait to find them :)

LEFT: Japan mini RIGHT: new 2017 Donkey Kong
Princess Peach new for the 2017 line up

New NINTENDO MARIO assortment
Thanks Pez International for the photos :)
