Howick shopper Carol Simpson has won the Times‘ local shopping promotion Howick Village Summer Spend & Win, picking up a massive collection of prizes.
The month-long promotion attracted thousands of entries. Shoppers had to spend a minimum $50 in participating stores for a chance to win an impressive list of prizes in the winner-takes-all competition.
The Times would like to thank all the businesses for participating in the Spend & Win campaign. And just the sheer volume of receipts shows it was a huge success.
