THERE was excitement galore at Lee Strand’s €1,000 Grand Finale on Saturday, November afternoon when Radio Kerry broadcasted live from Manor West Shopping Centre in Tralee.
To celebrate the launch of Lee Strand’s new 100% Renewable & 100% Recyclable carton, Lee Strand and Radio Kerry called at random to homes in Kerry from Monday, October 14th until Friday, November 1st.
The finalists qualified if Lee Strand’s new 100% Renewable carton was in their fridge. All finalists received a hamper filled with Lee Strand products and were invited to attend the Grand Finale to be in with a chance to win €1,000.
