€2,500 City Centre VIP Shopping Spree Winner with Cork City Council and RedFM
As part of its promotion of the City Centre, Cork City Council recently ran a City Centre VIP Shopping Spree competition on RedFM.
The competition on Breakfast with Ray & Jay aired in the format of a treasure hunt throughout the city. Every day, they gave out clues as to where they dropped their shopping receipt when they shopped around the city the day before. They described all the different shopping quarters, giving clues to specific locations. The five daily qualifiers then took part in a treasure hunt on Saturday, November 11th around the city centre and the winner was Sarah Murphy. Sarah won €2,500 worth of prizes including a year’s free parking in North Main Street car park, €500 in vouchers for both Brown Thomas and Opera Lane and an overnight stay for two with dinner in the Imperial hotel.
