Mommy Matinee/Wishlist Creation^sm Authenticity Statement

Mommy Matinee/Wishlist Creations^sm is an up and coming company which has conducted several surveys in recent years.

For each survey conducted, Mommy Matinee/Wishlist Creations^sm has given incentives or has held drawings for prizes. To date, Mommy Matinee has given away over $230 in incentives or prizes to approximately 20, out of 86 survey participants.  Mommy Matinee has also held an ice cream social and has more community events in the works!

The incentives/prizes are modest and have ranged from $5-$25 gift certificates or coupons for a free item.
