$10,000 Competition
February 2010

Ashok S. Auckland

"When I got the phone call I started trembling! I never imagined this could happen to me. I was in a state of shock until I received the confirmation email and then it started to sink in. I have never won anything previously and this sure is a treat for my family who are already making plans - especially my little daughter! Thanks a lot SmileCity, for making our day!"

$10,000 Competition February 2009

Ivan C. Manukau

"I still can't believe I have won $10,000 after receiving a telephone call from SmileCity. It started a few years ago when I joined and before I knew it, it became my everyday routine checking emails, doing online surveys and checking reward partners for a place to shop and earn more points. It is totally worth it for a few minutes everyday to earn points and earn some extra smiles when you cashed out your cheque. Not only you can earn reward points, you can also have a good laugh reading forums and enjoy feedback from different perspective of other members. Thanks SmileCity for being New Zealand's Number One Loyalty Program and for giving me a BIG smile!!!"

Hyundai Getz Car Auction Winner

Hyundai Getz Car Auction Winner

John M. Waikane Beach

"I suppose the big question that people would like to ask me is how did I do it? The only advice that I can really give you is to take advantage of all of the special offers and services offered by SmileCity and secondly to participate in the Forum. You might just get some helpful advice or tips to help you earn more points.

If you had told me on the day that I joined, that SmileCity was going to give me a car in the future; I would never have believed you. The car is a beautiful Blue Onyx Hyundai Getz 1.6L Auto, and it is the first brand new car that I have ever owned. This is the fourth prize that I have received from SmileCity this year (the other prizes were a 1GB MP3 Player, a tea-light holder and a $40 cheque).

So I must say a big thank you to SmileCity, you guys truly are New Zealand’s Number One Online Rewards Programme in my eyes!"

John was the highest bidder on the Hyundai Getz auction. John's high bid was 82,006 points (approximately $820) for a brand new car!

Daihatsu Sirion Car Auction Winner

Daihatsu Sirion Car Auction Winner

Greg D, Manukau

"What an amazing feeling to win a major prize like this!"

"It actually took a couple of days to sink in that I had succeeded. The stress of the auction was replaced with a wonderful sort of 'floaty euphoria' and I was on top of the world when I received a telephone call from SmileCity confirming the win.

The car is fabulous. It's a very smart black 1.3 litre Daihatsu Sirion and goes like a dream. It's now about 5 years since I've owned a new car. Although being a big family and we do have two cars already, there is good chance that my wife's parents may join us in NZ later this year and this will make an ideal shopping car for them.

My random decision to join SmileCity 3 years ago has now netted me prizes approaching $20,000, ranging from the smallest (Christmas mug), to $30 cash out cheques, salt and pepper set, candle holders, an MP3 player (worth about $150), a combined CD and MP3 player (worth about $250) and most recently a brand new Daihatsu Sirion.

So, looking back, all I can say to SmileCity is 'thanks for a great 3 years!'"

Greg was the winner of the Daihatsu Sirion auction. Greg's high bid was 45,691 points (approximately $450) for a brand new car worth over $18,000!

Zeena W. Auckland

"Wow, didn't believe it when I first got the call saying I'd won $10,000!! Lies I thought... until the confirmation email came through. Thank you so much SmileCity for putting the biggest smile on my face and for taking all the stress out of Christmas. What more can I say but wow."

$10,000 Competition February 2009

$10,000 Competition
May 2009

Jodi F. Palmerston North

"It feels completely surreal to have won the SmileCity $10,000 Cash Competition. As a student I am part way through my fifth year of full-time study and struggling to obtain financial assistance. Additionally, my husband and I are expecting our first child in September, so this could not have come at a better time. Knowing we have this extra money certainly has relieved any financial stress. I have never won anything before, so it was a huge surprise. Who would have thought that when I joined SmileCity several years ago, I would end up $10,000 richer? I have always been thrilled with the rewards I have earned, ensuring every morning to complete the Quick Survey, Web Clicks, and playing the Guessing Game… Winning the $10,000 is an unexpected, yet wonderful, added bonus and I cannot thank SmileCity enough!"

Free Movie Frenzy Competition Winners

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull - 22nd May 2008

"Having read about your Free Movie Frenzies, I never imagined that I'd ever be lucky enough to get an invite. It was great not having to queue up for tickets, and just head straight into the theatre. Thanks SmileCity - yet another bonus for being a member."
N. Willson, Wellington

"My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed the Wellington Free Movie Frenzy. First of all I admired the design of the ticket. It set the mood of what we were about to see. The feeling of the audience was happy, happy, happy. It was a very enjoyable experience. We would go again! Thanks!"
D. Du Toit, Wellington

"Thank you for a hassle-free, and cost-free night out. The movie, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, was great, and we enjoyed the opportunity to be a few of the first to see it in NZ. Would definitely love the opportunity again. Thanks."
R. Jones, Wellington

SmileCity Survey Cash Competition

SmileCity Survey Cash $500 Winner

Allan F, Auckland

"I won $500 from Smilecity..."

"All I had to do was fill out online surveys and be rewarded. I have always enjoyed doing online surveys and getting an extra $500 was fantastic. The family went to Rotorua, and was able to spend more time in the touristy places with the help of the $500. I am still enjoying SC, I get surveys at least once a week, and I spend far too much time in the forums, which are a lot of fun. Thanks Smilecity"

Allan won $500 for his participation in SmileCity online surveys during our SmileCity Survey Cash Competition!
