Grand opening promo fuels expansion into new geographic turf

3 minutes. One cart. All you can grab.

An exciting supermarket sweepstakes promotion paired with special product offers helped OnPoint Community Credit Union open three new in-store Safeway branches in a brand new market at one time and with a major splash.

Hundreds of people turned out at each location for their chance to win a three-minute free-for-all, grabbing everything they could fit into a shopping cart. A live radio remote helped drive traffic to the event.

One of the three sweepstakes winners filled his cart with $2,359, the biggest haul of the day. The Credit Union matched the total amount in grocery giveaways, $5,769, with a donation to a local foodbank.
