As part of the promotion, the company worked with hundreds of merchants and retailers throughout the UK and Ireland, to provide an extensive range of point-of-sale support.

"This year has been the biggest campaign ever," said sales director Simon Bicknell, "with even greater support from our customers which has enabled us to invest in even more stock, as well as the best ever advertising campaign on behalf of participants. This included our first ever prime-time adverts including on ITV1 during Coronation Street."

Chris Hayward, managing director of NMBS, Alan Hawkins, chief executive officer of BIRA/BHF, Colin Petty and Mr Bicknell met to review all the customer entries on 8 December.
