Two minutes to stuff a supermarket grocery cart await the grand prize winners of the 2019 Powell Tribune holiday shopping promotion Saturday.
And need we remind you? The two-minute “shopping sprees” at Mr. D’s Food Center and Blair’s Market are free to the fortunate duo!
The two lucky participants must first out-float the field in the Holiday Rubber Duck Derby, held Friday at 10 a.m. at the Powell Aquatic Center. Rubber ducks — representing winners drawn at each participating business in this year’s holiday shopping promotion — will bob down the PAC’s lazy river to the finish line.
The first place derby duck will win a two-minute shopping spree at Mr. D’s at 1 p.m. Saturday, and the second place derby duck will claim two minutes to comb the aisles of Blair’s Super Market at 1:30 p.m. Saturday.
The third place finisher in the rubber duck derby wins $250 in Powell Bucks from the Powell Tribune.
Month-long registration
Entries for the culminating events of the holiday shopping promotion have been building for the last month. People have been encouraged to fill out an entry form and deposit it with any of the participating businesses since Nov. 19. Registration qualifies the entrant for a $100 value prize or gift certificate drawn by each participating business.
Winners at each business advance to the rubber duck derby, along with additional names drawn to fill out the derby field. Ducks in the derby will be identified by number only, though the number code will be known to sponsors.

Come watch the derby
People are encouraged to observe Friday’s rubber duck derby. Tanya Bonner, co-director of the PAC, said the float in the current of the lazy river shouldn’t take longer than 15 minutes.
“We’ll have a group of middle schoolers there as an audience. Others are welcome,” she said.
The rubber ducks will be put in the lazy river current “and ushered on their way with noodles as needed,” she said.
Shopping spree Saturday
Both Powell supermarkets view the two-minute events in their stores as a way of saying thanks to the community.
“The Mr. D’s family is proud to serve our community and continue to offer exceptional service, saving Powell residents time and money,” said Kami Scott, general manager of Mr. D’s. “This is an awesome and fun way to give back to the community. From the Mr. D’s family to yours, we wish you a very Merry Christmas.”
Store director Kyle Foulger said Blair’s is thrilled to be part of the shopping spree giveaway.
“We are proud to be able to participate in a wonderful community-building event like this,” he said. “The support from our friends and neighbors is amazing, and we are grateful for the opportunity to return the favor to a lucky winner.”
Certain restrictions are in place for the two-minute sprees at each store: At Mr. D’s, liquor, beer, tobacco, items on aisle 5 and gift cards are excluded from the two-minute spree. A limit of three products from the fresh meat department will be applied.
Exclusions from the spree at Blair’s include tobacco, liquor and gift cards. A limit is applied on the number of any one item, including meat.
Prize winners will be contacted shortly after Friday’s rubber duck derby and the results announced on the Tribune’s Facebook page.
