Want to possibly win a great gift card to one of your favorite stores? Or maybe you’re looking to interact with some of your favorite product brands? Have you ever attended a Twitter party?

Here is how you can get in on the Twitter parties that will save you money.

Once you have created a Twitter account, make sure you follow the handle of the companies you love.

A Twitter handle refers to the tweeters name on Twitter. Mine is @SavingsATLMoms. There are many manufacturers and company brands on Twitter. Just log in and type the name of the company in the search box at the top and you will find the Twitter handle. For example, Kraft is @KraftFoods, Chick-fil-A is @ChickfilA.

Spend a little time on Twitter today and get started following some of your favorite product brands. Whenever the company has a Twitter party, you will see their “tweets” on the designated day and time. They will also share with you the types of prizes that you can win. Make sure you sign up with your twitter handle on the list they refer you to.

It seems odd, but you can also find out about Twitter parties on Facebook.

Most businesses on Facebook will share when they will be a part of an upcoming Twitter party.

Make sure you not only like your favorite brands on Facebook also click on the drop down icon next to the “like” button to get notifications.
