Shoppers who have stepped into Harvey Norman Noosa lately may have noticed some exciting things happening around the store and a buzz in the air.
The store is undergoing a bit of a freshen-up facelift and in a few short weeks Harvey Norman Noosa will be more user-friendly than ever before.
That buzz in the air is all about the unbelievable competition where Harvey Norman shoppers will have an opportunity to win one of greatest holiday experiences imaginable and it all kicks off on 1 November.
Every time shoppers spend just $50 or more in any of the departments in the Noosa store they will go in the draw to win a life-changing holiday.
They will get to stay in an adult-only oasis at the Exclusive Hamilton Island Beach Club in the heart of the Whitsundays and snorkel with Nemo on the reef followed by a trip to Port Douglas to ride in a hot-air balloon over the Atherton Tablelands, crocodile spotting and jungle surfing.
It sounds more like a movie than a prize.
But it gets better.
There is also a visit to the iconic Sails in the Desert Resort with a Harley motorcycle experience out to watch an Uluru sunrise, dinner under the southern desert sky and then a rail journey on the famous Ghan to SkyCity in Darwin will take this adventure to a whole new level.
The winner will cruise the Yellow Water Billabong in Kakadu, dive with whale sharks in Western Australia, four wheel drive out to the Pinnacles and give sand boarding a go, bike ride around Rottness island and then head over to Adelaide to explore the Barossa.
Crown Towers in Melbourne will be the base to visit the 12 Apostles, watch the Penguins on Phillip Island and then head to Tassie.
Then it’s back to Sydney to stay at one of the best hotels in Australia, the Intercontinental Hotel, and then climb the Harbour Bridge and sail in a tall ship.
It doesn’t get any better than that.
This prize will showcase the absolute magic of Australia from top to bottom and visitors can win it simply by shopping at Harvey Norman Noosa between 1 November and 24 December.
Last year’s winner, Ray Thompson, was lucky enough to win the grand prize on Christmas Eve to surprise his wife Wendy with a six-week dream holiday around the world.
From Hong Kong to Copenhagen to Sweden to Scotland and then onto Rome, Paris and London, Ray and Wendy Thompson experienced the trip of a lifetime.
They then trekked around the US, stopping in New York, San Francisco and L.A. before returning home to their business and six children.
“It all just ran like clockwork. It just flowed. There was so much to organise to pull it off, but the minute we were on the plane, we forgot about everything,” Ray said.
“It was the best thing that ever happened to us and it has changed our world,” he said.
The winner will be drawn on 24 December to make this Christmas the best ever for one very lucky person so shoppers are urged to get into this exclusive Noosa-only offer and put their hat in the ring for a life-changing adventure.
