Holiday shoppers looking to support local businesses this season can once again turn their everyday errands and dining into prize entries, as the Township of Huron-Kinloss has officially kicked off its 2026 Bites and Buys Shopping Pass promotion.
Running from November 12 through December 24, 2026, the initiative encourages residents and visitors to shop and dine locally across Lucknow, Ripley, Pine River, and Point Clark.
Participants earn one stamp on their shopping pass for every $10 spent at participating local businesses. Once shoppers collect $150 in total purchases, they can submit their completed pass to be entered into a draw for one of three $150 Huron-Kinloss Shopping Sprees.
Those who get a head start on their holiday gift lists have an extra incentive to participate. Shoppers who submit a completed pass before November 30 will be entered into an Early Bird Bonus draw for a chance to win one of two additional prizes.
Shopping passes can be picked up at any participating business or downloaded and printed directly from the Township of Huron-Kinloss website. Completed passes can be dropped off at participating locations or at the Township Office, located at 21 Queen Street in Ripley.
While the stamp collection period wraps up on Christmas Eve, shoppers have until January 9, 2027, at 11:59 p.m. to submit their completed passes for the final draw.
