“Sunkist Fun and Thrills” contest result is out


BANK OFFICER DRIVES OFF WITH BRAND NEW NISSAN LIVINA WORTH RM85,665
August 11, 2009



Petaling Jaya

Chee Hin Kiat is one happy man. He could not believe his ears when he received the call from F&N Dairies, to inform him he had won the grand prize of a brand new Nissan Livina 1.6 (A) worth RM 85,665 in the “Sunkist Fun and Thrills” contest.

Chee, a bank officer from Ipoh, submitted about 30 to 40 entries for this contest. He was quick to thank his family for their help and said that the car would bring all of them joy.

“I am still in shock. My family and I couldn’t be happier,” Chee beamed. “It’s definitely a combination of effort and sheer luck and we will use it as a family car.”

The Sunkist Fun and Thrills contest, which kicked off in March this year, ran for 12 weeks. Consumers had to use their creativity to match eight different Sunkist customer profiles to eight different Sunkist flavours. The consumer with the accurate answers would walk away with the grand prize.

Chee was not the only winner. First prize winner, Noor Azali Ayob from Pahang walked away with a 50” Plasma TV and Home Theater System worth RM 9,598, while second prize winner, Latifah Kamarul Jamal of Kelantan took home a Massage Chair worth RM 5,988. Three third prize winners, Yang Sit Kon of Pahang, Low Kum Meng of Selangor and Yong Fei Fei of Johor, received a laptop worth RM 3,859 each.

According to Ms Joselyn Sie, Group Product Manager, F&N Dairies (M) Sdn Bhd, Sunkist is one of the most recognized and timeless global brands and this contest is a way for the company to reinforce the brand’s unique expression of delivering the goodness of Mother Nature’s best citrus over the last 11 decades.

The winners were presented their prizes at an intimate ceremony held at F&N Dairies premises in Petaling Jaya. They were united in their appreciation for F&N Dairies and Sunkist in offering up opportunities such as this contest. Sie added that the looks on their faces when they were presented their prizes were thanks enough for the company.

“With a proud heritage in growing and harvesting the freshest, juiciest oranges, Sunkist is recognised for its consistent quality and flavourful products. This contest was aimed at reinforcing the brand’s messages and exciting our consumers and judging from the reaction of the winners, that is exactly what we have done,” Sie explained.

The “Sunkist Fun and Thrills” contest was launched in line with the unveiling of the new look for Sunkist, to enhance brand’s premium position and also reinforces the status of Sunkist and its equity as the best of California citrus which offers an uncompromising nutritious and refreshing experience.

F&N Dairies (M) Sdn Bhd is a wholly owned subsidiary of Fraser & Neave Holdings Berhad and is a major manufacturer and marketer of sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, pasteurised juices and ice-cream in Malaysia.

Mission accomplished by 31Aug 09

Yes(holding fist, elbows bend and pulled down in victory!)!! I've managed to complete all the contests with 31Aug datelines.

Sent out a few contests like MILO, Saudi Gold, Ajinomoto, TropicanaTwister Orange Juice, Lagu 1 Malaysia, etc by 31 August 09. Had spent a bomb on postages & envelopes!

Not forgetting some online contests for FEMALE, LG, GSC, Listerine & creative recipe contests.

Praying for some good winnings next, though results would probably be out only in about 3-6 months' time.

Wish me luck!!

Winning is so fun & rewarding ..though it's just consolation prize!




Thanks to KRAFT's "Name the signature Contest", I had the chance to take part & won a set of English design porcelain set (3 plates of different sizes, oven µwave proof) worth RM138. I'm also lucky that I could collect from the agent in Ipoh instead of going all the way to KL to collectt from the main dealer. The shop is situated at Sation 18 where the shoplots were quites new & not fully occupied yet. This shop called RC trading sells lots of nice household, furniture accesories stuff & they are very reasonably priced.










Though it's just a consolation prize...the feel of winning superceded the value of the prize!

Comping makes me a better person in recycling


Ever since I took part in contests 5 years ago, I've learnt to be a better person in recycling in the process of collecting labels, barcodes, Tetrapacks, aluminium cans tabs, etc. Isn't that great?

Today I sorted out the proof of purchases & trying to meet my contest datelines for contest ending end of august. Wish me luck!

Which Hyundai R U contest result is out!

To those who have taken part in this contest, check out the result here:

http://www.whichhyundairu.com.my/

Hyundai has already got a winner.

The WINNING PICTURE- trip to Europe worth RM38,000.


What do you think of the result? Personally I'm disappointed for not winning the voters' entry (Apple iPod touch). However if i were amongst the judges, I think this winning pic stands out among all but I am still wondering whether the photographer violted one of the condition that he should be in the photo.

Well perhaps he was really creative..the condition says the participant should be in the photo. Well he was..only thing his face was anonymous! Pretty creative wasnt he? Mayeb he deserves to win afterall.

Congrates to the winner LI KUNG LAU for winning the trip to Europe worth RM38,000.

Share with me your opinions.

A new blog is born!

Today, out of no particular reason I just feel like creating another blog to compile posts on contest and comping. A different taste from my main blog which jots down events about my family & my 4 lovely kids.

Since one of my hobbies are taking part in contest, I shall devote this blog for everything about me & my contests participation & winning.

Hope to have mmore time to continue this addictive comping hobby & of course more winnings, too!
