“The ‘Big Family, Big Prizes’ competition is about celebrating the strength of Australia’s biggest network of family-founded stores and the communities they serve.” 

Loyalty will also play a bigger role this year, with members rewarded with an extra spin to win, encouraging more shoppers to access Metcash’s network of loyalty programs including IGA Rewards, Cellarbrations Top Drop Rewards, Total Tools Insider Rewards and Mitre 10’s Mighty Rewards.  

“We’re always looking for new ways to reward our loyalty members and this year we’ve made it even easier to access those benefits across all our brands.”
