This weekend I got to become a Super Hero! {More on just WHO later.} But yes, in every augmented sense of the word, I got to see who my alter Hero-ego would be. It wasn’t exactly who I predicted, but on recent trip to WalMart I had a great time finding out!
Interested on how you can find out too? Then download the Super Hero Augmented Reality app for the Marvel Avengers and head to WalMart! Only there, can you unlock this special mobile app and discover some incredible augmented reality features and games. Even find amazing graphics on fixed items such as the WalMart MarketFresh pizza box, as well as the casing for The Avengers BlueRay/DVD Release {available 9/25-12}.
You can find out all about my shopping trip {and my GREEN inner Super Hero} by checking out my Google+ post {Becoming a Super Hero! #MarvelAvengersWMT}. And as you can see here too, we had alot of fun as I took my family grocery shopping. Together we got to explore our local WalMart store as we searched for the augmented reality displays to unlock our mobile app. But of course, what is a shopping trip without a little fun in the Toy section?
After finding all our foods, we were really excited with all the party supplies WalMart stocked specifically themed for The Avengers too. And with so much to choose from our items were piled high on the conveyor as we checked out. We had found great selections for the in-house Marketside brand ready-made salad, pizzas, and cheesy bread. And did I mention we got a great deal from the Bakery section on The Avengers sheet cake? It was the last one left and nearly half the original price. I love the deals you can get at WalMart!
Something else that I can’t wait to share with you, was The Avengers – Season One, Collectors Edition graphic novel! Only 100,000 of these books will be created. And you can find it paired up with The Avengers Blu-Ray/DVD as an exclusive combo pack. And you got it…this amazing set is only available at WalMart. Take it from me, this is one great comic-style novel to have!
So with all our goodies in tow, we headed out to celebrate our Avengers Family Fun Night at my parents home. Check out this awesome cake! And let me tell you…it was divine! We also had Lofthouse mini-cookies in specially themed packaging to highlight our Avengers night as well. {My Aunt & Uncle also got in on the fun but they didn’t want to be photographed for this post.} The kids and adults alike loved our goodies bags we made too. Full of great trinkets, toys, and candy it really rounded out our welcome table.
And a party isn’t a great party without some FOOD! With all the different dietary restrictions of those in attendance, it was the 5-Cheese Marketside pizza that went over the best. Add in our Marketside brand Lite Ceasar Salad and Cheesy Bread too? Well, that just made it a feast fit for Super Heros! By the time we were done, you pretty much had to roll us all away from the table. {LOL}
All said and done, we had a great time shopping, prepping, playing and eating in the name of touting the release of a very cool looking movie! {I can’t wait to see The Avengers when its released this week!} And after the chance to get back into reading a great comic-style graphic novel, I also couln’t help but have a little artistic expression on our Family Fun Night photo. I purchased these great Avenger Super Hero face masks with our party supplies for us all to smile brighter with.
