Lima, OH – Three lucky winners were chosen today as recipients of prizes from Downtown Lima retailers. A group of downtown shops joined together to create the Holiday Shopping Pass, a shopping map that rewards downtown shopping with the chance to win prizes.
Carol Graham of Elida won The Relaxation Package, a large gift basket with TV and movie collectibles from Alter Ego Comics, gourmet coffee and tea from The Meeting Place on Market, and a $50 gift certificate from downtown gift shoppe, David’s Finery.
Becky Mack of Lima won The Looking Good Package, made up of a $50 gift certificate from jeweler Don Jenkins, a $50 gift certificate from ladies’ boutique, Nitza’s, and a $50 gift certificate from men’s clothing retailer, Hofeller, Hiatt and Clark.
Kathy May of Elida won The Pampered Artist Package, containing a 72” Zeikos Pro tripod from Mack Camera, a $50 gift certificate for an art class from ArtSpace Lima, and a $50 gift certificate from décor and gift shoppe, Pears Avenue Boutique.
The Downtown Holiday Shopping Pass was a first for downtown merchants, and is one of many ways they plan to educate consumers on the rich shopping environment available in downtown Lima. “The Downtown Lima Shopping Pass brought more new faces into the store than almost any other promotion that we’ve participated in since opening in 2005,” said Marc Bowker, owner of Alter Ego Comics on Main Street. “The contest was a great way to promote locally owned businesses and show that Downtown Lima is an exciting place to be.”
