$10,000 Gift Cards and Other Giveaways
Since Christmas is also the season for giving, Westfield Chermside has $10,000 worth of gift cards for lucky shoppers. Look for the Non-Stop Shop HIT 105’s Black Thunders outside of Rebel on Level 2 for the hourly draw.
To qualify, you must spend a minimum of $20 during these special shopping hours. Aside from Westfield Gift Cards, customers may also win prizes from Goodlife Health Clubs, Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetics and Target.
Visit the area outside of Nespresso between 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. for your personalised Christmas calligraphy card. At 6:00 a.m. the next day, some cafes inside the shopping centre are going to give cups of coffee for free. You’ll need that buzz as there are still some more hours left for shopping!
Don’t go home once you’re done with shopping, though. If you have a few more minutes to spare, go to the second level outside of Myer’s to have your gifts beautifully wrapped. Proceeds of this service will go to Wesley’s Mission Red Bag Appeal.
Everything you need and even more is at Westfield Chermside. This place provides heaps of things to enjoy and experience — from trying out the latest food trends or shopping for fashion items, to relaxing at the cinema or playing bowling or laser tag.
The second level has all the trendy eateries and retail stores. The first level houses major store chains like Woolworths, K-Mart, Coles, Myers, David Jones and Big W.
The 34-hour shopping event is not a first for Westfield Chermside. Retailers are also not obligated to follow the Christmas non-stop shopping hours. Follow the updates of this event at the Westfield Chermside’s Facebook page.
