Skepticism turned into delight when Gift Mwebembezi, a housewife and mother of one was presented with the dummy Air ticket to Brazil.
She becomes the latest winner of an all-expense paid trip to Brazil, the land synonymous with fun, merry making, beauty and the famous Samba culture in the ongoing Sip Sip Samba Promotion by Uganda Breweries Limited.
The promotion will give forty Ugandans the opportunity of a lifetime to enjoy the beautiful scenery that has become synonymous with this South American nation.
Speaking in her mother tongue; Rutooro Mwebembezi said, “I have never boarded a plane, let alone even seen one at close range. I cannot believe that I will be seated in one.”
Sarcastically adding, “The next time you see a plane flying by, just know that is Gift going. I simply drank my favourite beer, Bell and then sent the short code via SMS. I was shocked when I was called that I was a winner. Naturally, I knew these were conmen. But now, I have my ticket, I am going to Brazil!”
In addition to the trip, consumers also have the chance to win other prizes like instant cash as well as other customized memorabilia.
To participate in the Sip Sip Samba promotion, buy a bottle of any of the four brands; Bell Lager, Guinness, Tusker Lager and Tusker Malt, check under the crown for a five-digit code then send an SMS with the code to 6050 for the chance to enter the weekly draw to win the trip. The more codes one sends, the higher their chances of winning. Please look out for a bottle with the promotion cap to enjoy all this.
The draws are carried out every Monday at 8:35pm on NTV Uganda to pick the winners of the cash award prize of UGX 100, 000 and tickets to Brazil.
The campaign will not only offer the most amazing prize of experiencing Brazil, it will also seek to reward those who will be here at home. There will be lots of prizes like free beer, instant cash via mobile money.
