A three-week promotion in Ōrewa this month aims to provide exposure and a boost to local service industries.
Anyone spending $20 or more at any participating business will be in to win one of three prizes of $1000. The prize will not be given in cash, but go towards something which the winner may have been putting off for a while – anything from a car service or legal fees to a dental visit, hearing aids or a chiro or physio appointment.
“Times are tougher and sometimes personal services, professional services or medical treatments have been foregone,” says Hellen Wilkens, operations manager for business association Destination Ōrewa Beach, which is organising the promotion.
The winner can arrange a service or appointment at any provider in Ōrewa, which will then be paid directly, in full or partial payment.
