The Fourth Shop September Winner is Announced in Carrigaline, Co. Cork.

Sept. 27, 2010 - PRLog -- The 4th winner of the Carrigdhoun localrewards.ie Shop September weekly draw is Samantha Shanahan.  Samantha used her Carrigaline localrewards.ie Loyalty Card during the week and by doing so was automatically entered into the weekly draw. Samantha wins 650 reward points from participating businesses across the town.

The promotion is part of an ongoing initiative by Carrigalines leading independent businesses to encourage local shopping.The town was facing competition from Cork city, just minutes away so they decided to find a way to keep  business in the town. Having looked at a number of options such as branded Discount Cards the decision was made to launch Ireland first town-wide loyalty card under the localrewards.ie name. Each business runs their own program with the points they issue being valid only in that business. Cardholders can access all the individual loyalty programs with their one Carrigaline localrewards.ie card and also see their balances and transaction history online. The program is made possible using internet technology developed by Cork company myrewardcard.ie.

The Shop September promotion is sponsored by The Carrigdhoun as their contribution to keeping Carrigaline a thriving commercial town. It consists of 4 weekly draws and a Grand Prize. Every Saturday a registered card that has been used in the previous week is drawn at random to win 50 points from each business. The Grand Prize Draw takes place at the end of the month and all cardholders who have used their card in 2 different business during the month are automatically eligible. The winner of the Grand Prize gets €250 and 1,300 points.

Cardholders are automatically entered for the weekly draw when they use a registered card in any of the 13 participating businesses; Pet Essentials, Batemans Shoes, Kool Kidz Korner, Carrigaline Bookshop, Express Tyre Centre, Spice Indian Restaurant, Cahills Menswear, Mano Mano, Chocolate Hair Group, Carrigaline Auto Centre, The Print Studio, Celine's Beauty Rooms and Rothar Cycles.
