SHE is a 30-year-old woman who is due to give birth in one month’s time. What could be better for her than to win a whopping $1M in the Courts ‘Become a Millionaire Promotion!?’

The already mother of one, Ms Savita Singh, who hails from Peter’s Hall, on the East Bank Demerara, was one of twelve winners drawn from Courts branches from around the country. The winners were all vying for the million dollars yesterday.
But none of the other eleven went away empty-handed, for other prizes included televisions, a washing machine, chair sets, a freezer, etc. Each winner was offered up to $200,000 to swap what they originally got after popping a balloon of their choice. But they each refused the money and opted to take home the prizes that they actually won.

The crowd loved Singh and it seemed that each one wanted her to win the money. So there was a lot of screaming and cheering for her once it was revealed that she won. In

fact, the promotion was full of excitement yesterday morning! Each winner was asked to get up and dance as part of the fun. And they all did!
For this year’s Christmas, Courts said it wanted to make one fortunate customer a millionaire each week until the end of the year. The promotion commenced last November 7 and will continue until December 28. Any customer who shops $5000 and over will get a chance to be one of the five remaining millionaires.
“At Courts Guyana Inc. we are always looking for an opportunity to reward our customers for their loyal patronage throughout the year, and the ‘Big Prize’ Promotion will allow them to win and become a millionaire! So we are pleased to serve and reward our customers in a way that no other furniture and appliance store is able to match,” the store said in a media statement.
