Shop And Win The Hinchinbrook Way 2024

The 2024 Shop & Win The Hinchinbrook Way promotion will come to a conclusion when the prize draw takes place in the Hinchinbrook Shire Council foyer, during late night shopping this coming Thursday.  This year’s campaign, designed to encourage residents and visitors, to support all local businesses within the 4850 postcode and especially focusses on the Christmas shopping period.  

This years’ promotion has built on the success of the inaugural “Shop and Win in Hinchinbrook 2023” campaign and has been made possible through the very generous continued support of the major sponsors - Hinchinbrook Shire Council, Powerlink Queensland, Windlab (Gawara Baya) and Mobbs Marr Legal.  The combination of this financial sponsorship and complementary support, provided by many local businesses, will result in this year’s prize allocation worth over $16,000.

This year has seen a substantial increase in participation from the community, evidenced through the massive volume of receipts lodged in the collection boxes that are more than double in numbers from last year. The business community have been very proactive in promoting the campaign and raising awareness and are reporting a noticeable increase in community participation.

In addition to the project management of the overall promotion, Hinchinbrook Chamber has incorporated a comprehensive marketing campaign via social media and radio, with the assistance from Hinchinbrook Shire Council managing the printed media promotion.    

With a substantial prize pool, 15 different prize baskets have been created for the winners; with prizes ranging from Gift Vouchers from local businesses, children’s toys and many other gift lines.  The drawing of the winners will take place during the final Late-Night Shopping event in the CBD on Thursday 19th December 2024 at 6:00pm in the Council foyer.
