Eastside Mario’s has made a Markdale family much happier.
Janine Ricketts has won one of three Dodge Caravans that were given away by the restaurant chain in its Budda Boom Budda Ching promotion.
Ricketts received a ballot after eating at the Owen Sound restaurant.
Ricketts says the ballots were in her wallet for a couple of weeks before she entered the PIN number online.
Ricketts says at first she didn’t believe it — so she called up the number and to her disbelief — she indeed did win.
The Owen Sound native has some advice for other people — never throw out prize ballots — you just never know.
The Eastside Mario’s International promotion gave away 10 million prizes — including 25 Sunwing trips for two, 100 sony flatscreen TV’s as well as food prizes.
