I won one of my most fun competition prizes with this branch of Budgens and the East London Advertiser 'Best Dressed Barbecue Chef' competition in summer 2013.
My dad took some photographs of me dressed in a pin-striped suit with tie, shorts, plimsolls, a Brazilian carnival mask with an Australia apron over the top. I scanned it off to the advertiser and won!
I did my homework a few days before the Saturday trolleydash as I only had sixty seconds and the prize only included certain products. I visited during the week and found out where the meat counter was......
The staff were so kind as I waited in their room and then I was off with the ELA photographer taking pictures as I headed straight for the meat fridges and managed to grab 130 Pounds worth of food to stick in the freezer.
A great competition prize! read more
