Bailey's Bounty, the sweepstakes sales promotion to encourage buying local here in Bailey during the weekend after Thanksgiving is back again for 2024! It's the biggest sales promotion we do each year! It encourages shopping local, by incentivising customers with a chance to win big prizes. 

For those of you that participated last year or in 2022, I think you'll agree it was a successful promotion in driving increased sales. Customers receive one entry for every dollar they spend with participating businesses, so many shoppers visit multiple stores those two days.. And we award the prizes the week after the promotion. 

We promote the heck out of this promotion and it brings people into stores. In 2022 we had more than 33,000 total entries in and more than 41,000 in 2023 among participating businesses. Several of you told me you set record sales that day as well. Last year we awarded grand prizes with more than $4,500 retail value. In 2022, it was $2,700 retail value in prizes.

Because it's been so successful, it's back for 2024. 

1. It will be two days - Black Friday Nov29th and Small Business Saturday Nov 30
2. We will be creating multiple prize baskets with each one having no more than $600 retail value. We're doing that to avoid winners having to pay tax on their winnings. And more gift baskets also means more chances for customers to win. So more excitement!

A full overview of the promotion is provided in the PDF document below for your review for those of you that are new to this and if you need a refresher on the promotion. We will promote this like crazy again this year!
