One Stop's launches weekly summer prize draw

One Stop’s latest promotion will see it giving back to customers during the COVID-19 crisis with multiple chances to win prizes across the summer.

The campaign, ‘Summer Fun Sorted’, will run from 1st July – 25th August 2020 will include giveaways including a luxury forest break away, smart TV, electronics and garden games.


The retailer said it understands that some of their customers may be facing a financial squeeze or cancelled getaways this year due to COVID-19.

One Stop is also lining up strong weekly deals helping drive more customers into store, rather than heading to the supermarkets, as social distancing rules remain enforced across the UK.

Nigel Prendergast, head of customer of One Stop said: “Our customers more than likely won’t be going on holiday this year or could have faced some financial issues on the back of COVID-19.

“We wanted to create something fun and exciting for them, encouraging them to engage with the brand and repeat visit. The competition will allow us to increase our database but also reconnect with our customers as we slowly emerge from lockdown.

“It’s been a tough few weeks for everyone – across the globe – but for our customers we want them to know that we’re here for them and in this together. At One Stop we’re determined to help them get their ‘Summer Fun Sorted’ and can’t wait to get the season fully underway!”

Customers will be directed to One Stop’s website from its social channels to fill out the competition entry form, where they will join the weekly prize draw to win a Summer Fun Bundle.

Ten runners up will also win one garden game each and everyone entering for the eight weeks will automatically join the main prize draw at the end of the promotion.
