Mac's Convenience Stores - Receipt Contest

 

Legend Cars of Alberta would like to announce a contest that will be offering great prizes for those who enter and help drive traffic to our Title Sponsors Convenience Store locations.

 

From April 22nd, 2009 through to July 18th, 2009 all Mac's convenience store or fuel receipts are eligible for some wicked cool draw prizes at the Stratotech Road Coarse Race.

 

Drivers, crews and families are to collect the receipts and put the Legends Car Number they represent as well as the name of the person who the receipt belongs to on the back of the receipt. Legend Cars of Alberta will collect the receipts at the races up until 11:00am Saturday July 18th 2009 when the draws begin. The reason we want the car number is if that person is not available at the race in July they can still win as long as the team can receive the draw prize. You have to be at the race or represented by a team to win, even if the team is not at the race, they can win if the car number is on the receipt.

 

All of the receipts will be placed back into the draw box and the teams can continue to collect and turn in receipts until 11:00 am September 19th, 2009 at the last race of the year. All receipts will then be eligible for the year end banquet "Mega Macs" draw prizes.
