After successfully giving away $15,000 of shopping vouchers last year, Richmond Unlimited is upping the reward for shopping in local stores.
Last year, the promotion saw 1500 $10 vouchers given away to be spent in local stores.
This year, alongside Richmond Mall, they have upped the stakes, instead giving away a $20 voucher every time $150 is spent in one transaction.
Richmond Unlimited manager Sheena Murtagh says the promotion had a great response from both retailers and customers last year, so they decided to bring it back in 2023.
“Last year we did it during February and March when we were just coming off the back of lockdowns, we hadn’t been able to run the normal events over summer so it was a good way to put back into the retail community,” she says.
“This year we decided to hold off, so hopefully it gives everyone a boost going into winter.”
Sheena says the vouchers put a good chunk of money back into local retailers with customers using their $10 voucher in smaller stores like bakeries or cafes.
“We’re hoping by increasing the amount to $20 it opens it up a bit more to other retailers so customers can purchase things like a new book, but also still a treat.”
The promotion begins on Saturday 3 June and runs till Sunday 25 June. All customers have to do to claim their voucher is present their receipt to the Richmond Mall information desk.
They will then have the choice of a $20 gift card to be spent within the mall or a $20 voucher to be used in the CBD.
A full list of participating stores is available from the Richmond Mall information desk.
