From Rotherham to Rio for one lucky winner!

A local shopping centre recently teamed up with a motor dealership to be able to offer one lucky winner a new set of wheels in time for the warmer months!

The promotion was parked up at The Alhambra Shopping Centre from Monday 16th February until Saturday 4th April where a lucky winner was chosen at random live in the centre on Bank Holiday Monday.

Julia Garside (67) of Rotherham was selected from more than 1500 entries and yesterday picked up her new Kia Rio car courtesy of Burrows Kia of Pontefract Road, Barnsley.

All customers had to do to win the prize bundle worth more than £12,000 was to spend £40 in one transaction in the shopping centre over the seven week entry period.

Julia said: “Living in Rotherham, the Alhambra is a day out for us so we only visit 4-5 times a year as a treat - but we often see promotions on when we do go.

“I couldn’t believe that my name was picked out at the shopping centre - I was very excited and it made the perfect Easter present!”

The Barnsley town centre, retail outlet is renowned for offering a selection of activities, campaigns and promotions for shoppers, but this was the largest valued prize to date and follows a similar competition in partnership with Sheffield based dealership Eric Stead MG.

Steph Higham, Alhambra marketing manager said: “We were delighted to team up with Burrows on this competition and very happy for Julia who is the lucky winner!

“We thrive on making our customer’s happy and we have lot’s more exciting competitions in the pipe line for the rest of 2015”
