Fearless_Fish Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 Anyone know of anywhere that sells Brothers cider around the Teesside area? Not many Co-ops around me but I'll have to try and arrange a visit to one and keep an eye out for "promotional material"... Do we know if the Brooklyn Pilsner has to be opened to access the code (i.e. under the ring pull)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not seen anything about it and it was such a big fundraiser, I really would have expected them to send out some comms to say that the winners had been selected, as I imagine that it’s a chance for them to talk about how much they’d raised (again). I’d enter the Brothers cider competition but I really cannot stand cider (ruined it for myself as a teenager, so my own fault really). Fingers and toes crossed for everyone entering whichever competitions you are entering or have entered! The emails for winners for the fundraiser have indeed been sent...

They said they’d raised £1.3 when they sent out the ‘competition is closed’ email. I haven’t officially seen the winners are announced, just people posting they win.

For someone who likes "proper cider" and doesn't like the super sweet berry ciders - which are the least awful cans to aim for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I thought there’d be a bit more fanfare to it and I think it’s a nice ‘close the feedback loop’ thing to do. I hadn’t seen anyone post anything so was existing in a bit of radio silence.

Do we know if the Brooklyn Pilsner has to be opened to access the code (i.e. under the ring pull)? I don’t believe there is a code for the Brooklyn cans - you just need to scan your membership card when purchasing and then keep hold of the receipt. I’ve now been in 4 co-op stores and yet to see promotions for the competition anywhere, including on the self-checkout screens. I’ve one final store to try tonight near my office which is the largest of those near me so I’ll buy a pack regardless & hope for the best!

Fishman Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 15 hours ago, Barneym said: Where in SE London are you the one on Lordship Lane in East Dulwich has a massive sign outside about the competition Thanks for this - I've paid it a visit. This whole thing seems very understated, surely increasing the chances for a lucky few. I'd visited 8 stores around me in the end over the last few days (Blackheath, Eltham, Charlton, Greenwich) and I didn't see any obvious promo material. Two stores had no Brooklyn at all; two more only had bottles and rest had, at most, two packs. It's very odd. So I have a pack from my Co-op tour and one from your shop showing the promotion. We go again next week, I suppose. At least it's more drinkable than that sweet Brothers stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuildfordGlastoGirl Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 TikTok have a Chilly's competition - it is to win 6 tickets - I don't have 5 other people I'd invite (my kids don't need tickets), so in the unlikely event I win....I'll be back here! Re the Brooklyn Pilsner - no, no ringpull. It is an automatic entry - though I've only found it in one store, and no promo material, even on screens. Someone asked about the least sweet cider - I haven't drunk any of them, but the pear one (the strongest, and also the most expensive, annoyingly) is the one I'm using in cooking to replace ordinary cider. HTH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelin Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 I best find last years sim card😀 I dont think i could cope with the Tonys one again this year. They should at least make it more like a treasure hunt with some clues. It ends up costing a fortune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t grumble at that really . No one is forced to enter its all good fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booker Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 The Coop Brooklyn Lager competition is only for England and Wales. I'd been buying a 4 pack everytime I was in my local Coop in Glasgow. At least the cans won't go to waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
