“We keep it dry”
Madeira Park resident Deborah Cyr, on the left, will definitely be going shopping. She has just won $6,400 in Save-on-Foods gift cards from Petro Canada. Here she poses on March 9 with Heather White, manager of the Corner Gas Petro Can in Sechelt, and Israel Martens, Save-on-Foods manager in West Vancouver. Deborah entered by swiping her Petro Can points card in Sechelt and was one of 10 winners across Western Canada of “free groceries for a year”. (She has to travel to the Lower Mainland to use the gift cards.) The prize works out to about $123 a week and is apparently based on a single person’s grocery needs. But, of course, Deborah is not a single person; she has a husband, four children and six grandchildren. And she used her first gift card to buy and deliver a few luxury items – like fresh grapes – to her children’s families, and to buy fancy candy for her co-workers at Sechelt Hospital. Deborah is described as someone who is always entering draws and contests because, as she told her family, you never know when you might win something. PHOTO SUBMITTED
