April/May on-pack promotions

Welcome to the second ‘Di’s Prize Buys’ video, where I pop to a local supermarket looking for current on-pack promotions, then show you how to enter them. Check out my March video for details of other current purchase-necessary promotions on Crabbies, Adnams, Ginsters & Carling.

Many promotions stand out on the shelves thanks to the packaging or advertising  – but for others you’ll need to be checking a specialist publication like Compers News, or the Promomarketing website to get a heads up on what’s due in store!

If you’re confused about prize draws, instant wins and winning moments then these two blog posts will give you more guidance:

• A guide to Purchase-necessary promotions
• Top tips: Winning on-pack promotions
