Snack brand Pringles has launched a nationwide Digital Out-Of-Home (DOOH) campaign to encourage participation in its Easter on-pack promotion, “Take a Bite and Win a Flight”.

Players are being invited to snap and share a picture of themselves enjoying their favourite Pringles on social media for the chance to win a trip to a European destination every hour throughout every day of the month-long promotion.  The DOOH campaign has been designed to amplify the social media campaign and will harness the real-time capabilities of the medium by featuring the social photos of each hourly winner in real-time on panels close to point of purchase.

The campaign runs until 16th April on six-sheet digital panels outside key Tesco and Asda stores nationwide.

OOH campaign planning is by location marketing specialist Posterscope and Carat, with creative produced by promotional marketing agency ZEAL.

Emily Dutton, Assistant Brand Manager, UK & I Pringles, says: ”Easter is a time for friends and family to get together and celebrate, and Pringles plays a big part in this sharing occasion.  Our ‘Take a Bite and Win a Flight’ adds another sharing opportunity into the holiday, and with our winners celebrated on advertising panels close to purchase points, we want to encourage shoppers to grab a tube and get involved.”

Lee Mabey, Agency Strategy Director at Posterscope, adds: ”Research has shown that people are more likely to enter a competition if they feel that they have a real chance of winning.  Our ability to feature real-time, user-generated content from our competition winners on panels right next to purchase points, taps directly into this and will help to drive interest and desire for this fantastic Pringles promotional.”

Posterscope is the world’s leading out-of-home and location marketing specialist with billings in excess of $3 billion and over 1,000 staff in 57 offices in 34 countries worldwide.

The Pringles brand is now owned by Kellogg’s, which bought it for $2.7 billion in May 2012 from Procter & Gamble. It is one of the world’s most popular snacks,

Kelloggs-owned savoury snack brand Pringles is running a promotion offering consumers the chance to win £300 in free flights to European destinations every hour, by posting pictures of themselves taking a bite of a Pringles chip to social media.

The promotion opens on February 1^st and closes on April 16^th 2018. There will be one winner drawn at random every hour from 11.00am to 7.00pm, with a final ‘mop-up’ draw for entries received after the closing date and before the end of July. There will be 601 prizes awarded in total, consisting of £300 towards a return direct flight to a European destination for one person. Winners will be able to put the £300 towards a more expensive flight and pay the excess, but may be charged a handling fee by the prize management agency working on the promotion.

To enter, UK and Republic of Ireland consumers (aged 18+) have to take a picture of themselves taking a bite of a Pringles chip and then share it via either Facebook (posting it to the Pringles UK Facebook page), Instagram or Twitter. If they use Instagram or Twitter, they have to include the hashtag #PringlesTakeaBite.

Consumers are restricted to entering once per person per day and can only win one prize during the promotion.

Winners will be informed via Direct Message on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter within seven days of the hourly draw taking place. They will then have seven days to respond, or the prize will be re-awarded.

Winners will be notified via Direct Message on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter within 7 days of the hourly window and will be required to provide personal details to progress with prize fulfilment.

There is a No Purchase Necessary entry route for residents of Northern Ireland, while those from the Republic of Ireland whose names are drawn will have to answer a tie-break question correctly in order to be deemed a winner. This is because both Northern Ireland and the ROI have slightly different laws governing prize draws to the UK (and to each other).

Prize management and fulfilment is being handled for Pringles by Cloud Nine Incentives, which is a member of the Institute of Promotional Marketing.

Pringles is celebrating its 25th birthday with a promotion offering the chance to win tickets to an exclusive live gig with singer Olly Murs in May. Guests will also be able to meet Murs personally at the Pringles-branded live event, which will take place in London on May 19th.

The savoury snack brand is offering 50 pairs of tickets to the performance, one pair a day for 50 days. No purchase is necessary; UK consumers just have to visit www.partywithpringles.com or www.pringles.com and register their details to enter. Residents of the Republic of Ireland will also need to correctly answer a skill based question before they can enter.

Prize allocation is via ‘winning moments’, and the entrant who is first to submit their details on or after the randomly selected time will win that pair of tickets. Winners will be told instantly if they have won.

The prize also includes accommodation and travel to London.

The competition is being supported with a fully-integrated campaign including shopper, in-store, digital, radio and TV. Promotional videos featuring the singer will appear online on sites including Snapchat, Spotify and Facebook.

Wolf Brand Experience has been working with Pringles on the campaign.
