The Stonehaven Business Association "shop local" loyalty card scheme is well underway.  Launched on Saturday, June 7 it gives shoppers a chance to fill their loyalty card to be entered into a price draw.

Niall Menzies secretary of the Business Association, said: “For four weeks customers get the chance to win £50 worth of shopping vouchers in Stonehaven. Each shopper will receive a loyalty card which they fill up at various shops in the town.  Each card has 10 spaces to be filled.  A space is filled with every £10 spent in the town. Every filled card should be handed in to Ma Simpsons music shop on Evan Street to be entered into a prize draw.

“We will have four weekly draws enabling shoppers to win £50 to be spent at a shop of their choice in Stonehaven.  We have over 20 shops taking part. Each one having a shop local poster in the window to let customers know they are taking part.  We are doing what we can to make Stonehaven a more attractive place to shop and promote our businesses to the Stonehaven public”, said Niall.

The first week's prize went to Kerry Allan. Well done Kerry!
