Travis Exchange shopper wins $15,000 in Lindt Chocolate sweepstakes
DALLAS – Summer just got a lot sweeter for Travis Exchange shopper Fe Lauron of Castro Valley, Calif., who won $15,000 through the Army & Air Force Exchange Service’s Lindt Chocolate Sweepstakes.
The sweepstakes, which ran from March 7 to April 17, offered a randomly-drawn winner a choice between a brand-new Volkswagen Beetle or a $15,000 cash prize. Lauron picked the cash, and she was presented with a check for the full grand prize amount on July 2 at the Travis Exchange.
“I was speechless,” said Lauron, a retired Navy spouse of 22 years. “I actually had to call them back after they notified me because I didn’t believe it at first. I’m very thankful to the Exchange and Lindt Chocolate.”
The Exchange holds dozens of sweepstakes per year in addition to offering tax-free shopping and free shipping for online orders. For the latest on Exchange sweepstakes, call or visit your local Exchange.
