Thunder Bay 50/50 December Pop-up Store Opens at Intercity Shopping Centre
Published Thursday, December 8, 2022
Guaranteed $1 Million Grand Prize This December
The Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Foundation has just made giving Thunder Bay 50/50 tickets even easier this Christmas. Everyone shopping this Christmas at Intercity Shopping Centre can visit the Thunder Bay 50/50 December Pop-up Store in the Food Court (the old Davids Tea) to get their tickets and gift tickets in person.
Glenn Craig, President and CEO of the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Foundation, said that it’s a way to make gifting tickets easier.
“Thunder Bay 50/50 is usually an online draw,” Craig said. “Opening up the store for the Christmas season means people can buy in-person as well. Plus, we’ve put together an attractive package to make your gift extra special.”
All gift packs include tickets from $10 to the $100 Holiday Super Ticket with a holiday card for signing and a festive envelope to put under the tree or into a stocking. The $100 Holiday Super Ticket will only be available at Christmas, Craig said. And for extra Christmas cheer, both the $100 ticket and the $50 ticket packages will feature 100 and 50 BONUS Tickets respectively.
Want to keep the tickets for yourself? That’s fine too, Craig said. In fact, having the in-person store will make it easier and more accessible for people to buy tickets if they aren’t as tech savvy.
The December Pop-up Store continues a long tradition and partnership between the Health Sciences Foundation and Intercity.
“It feels great to come back to the mall,” Craig said. “Before Thunder Bay 50/50, we hosted an annual 50/50 cash draw at Christmas with booths set up at Intercity. Of course this year, we are doing it up so much bigger. The popularity of Thunder Bay 50/50 has been overwhelming, and we wanted to create a special atmosphere to meet those expectations.”
This month’s jackpot is a guaranteed $1 million – the largest guaranteed 50/50 prize in Thunder Bay history. There will also be 17 Early Bird draws throughout December worth $50,000 including one for $25,000. The Grand Prize Draw will take place December 30, 2022.
The December Pop-up Store will only be open in December leading up to the Grand Prize Draw. Tickets are also available online as usual at thunderbay5050.ca. An option to buy tickets as gifts is available in-person or online, but the accompanying envelope and card are only available at the December Pop-up Store.
