New Castle, DE (PRWEB) January 12, 2005 -- NuCar Connection, a New Castle and Middletown, Delaware, franchise auto dealer, awarded 100 customer shopping sprees, at the Christiana Mall, on Friday, January 7th. Members of NuCars exclusive AutoAwards Club, were randomly chosen for NuCars first Customer Appreciation Day of 2005.
NuCar AutoAwards Club Members were randomly chosen, after having entered on www.nucar.com. Two weeks later, a phone call from the AutoAwards Champion confirmed the lucky selection of 100 NuCar customers. Phone call after phone call, customers wanted to know the details, but the AutoAwards Champion held fast... Congratulations for being chosen as one of our 100 Shopping Spree winners. Show up Friday, January 7th to find out what youve won. Thanks for buying your vehicles from NuCar Connection." Besides, what could everyone use two weeks after Christmas? Thats right... money.
NuCar Customers began arriving at 4pm, to register. The only detail waiting at that time was a glowing orange I just won a Shopping Spree from NuCar Connection." For an hour, 100 customers, with friends and family members in tow, registered for the event. WSTW personality Johnny B kept NuCars customers entertained, while NuCar employees kept the customers on edge, with tantalizing comments and hints at what was about to come. The questions were endless about what was going to happen, how do you win the grand prize, can I have help, how much do I get, and am I going to win anything for sure? As the registration ended and the rules and regulations were explained to everyone, you could feel the excitement in the air, and see the anticipation among the customers. An H2 HUMMER was a center point of conversation, as were the Mazda RX8), Chevrolet SSR and KIA Sedona, all featured vehicles at the affair.
At 5pm sharp, to a sea of orange t-shirt wearing winners, NuCar announced the details of the Customer Appreciation Day prizes. Each customer received a $150 Christiana Mall gift card, to be spent at their leisure and at the participating merchant of their choice. Most of the 100 customers wanted to know the catch... but there wasnt one. The money was theirs to keep; however, it was immediately announced that there was a voluntary sub-contest, as part of the evenings activities.
To the individual who obtained the most receipts from individual stores within a 30 minute window, there was a $2000 cash prize. A short hush followed by the ever-popular chorus of ooohs and ahhhs". NuCars customers quickly contemplated their options and scoped out their competition. It was obvious there was a mix of shopping-mall veterans and bewildered rookies. Plans to acquire the most receipts ranged from mindless mayhem" to calculated methodology, with one customer stopping to pick up a calculator, to figure out how much to spend and at how many stores. The countdown to shopping began with a rush of orange in all directions and a parting of the way" from the normal mall shoppers.
As the 30-minute window came to a close, scurrying customers made their way back to the registration area. Spoils from their adventure spilled out from numerous bags. Customers gathered anxiously, as the announcement was made... with an amazing 25 receipts and having spent only $109, Traci Powell was awarded her $2000.
But the thrills didnt stop there. With Traci mentally wrestling between a practical and impulse item, the caring mother of two finally decided on the necessary kitchen appliances. As she made her announcement live on WSTW with Johnny B, NuCar had one last surprise. To ensure a happy ending for the family caretaker, NuCar announced an additional $500 prize for Tracy, to be spent in 15 minutes. Shortly after clearing up a few tears, Traci was on her way to get a modest stereo and a couple stuffed bears for her adorable children. Traci Powell said it best on radio when she commented, Theres nothing like the feeling of a NuCar."
