Retail Christmas Promotion to begin

The Perry County Chamber of Commerce will begin the annual "Retail Christmas Promotion" on November 30th

We invite you to join us for our “2012 CHRISTMAS CASH” retail promotion. Participating businesses will decorate a box to place in their store where shoppers can register with an entry blank for each purchase in the store to win Christmas Cash. The cash will be in the form of Chamber gift certificates (to further encourage local shopping) worth over a thousand dollars in prizes to be given away.

Participating businesses will be asked to draw a name from your box each Friday in December. We will call you for the name and pick grand prize winners each week from those given to us by participating stores. Each store will have a winner every week for a total of three winners from each store. The weekly winners will win $30 with a grand prize given the last week. The amounts may vary, depending on how many businesses participate. The Chamber will furnish you with registration forms and posters for your door/window and for your registration box soon after receiving your sign-up sheet.

The cost to participate is $100 for Chamber members and $150 for non-members.
