Edward scoops £100

‘It’s the first time I’ve ever entered anything like that’

- BY MATTEO BELL

ONE lucky Tele reader has his weekly shopping sorted after winning £100 worth of Asda vouchers in our brilliant new competitio­n.

Edward Carling, from Douglas, was this week’s big winner, pocketing £100 to spend at any local Asda.

The bricklayer, who has never entered a Tele competitio­n before, was very happy with the outcome.

He said: “It’s the first time I’ve ever entered anything. I’m not really the kind to enter lotteries or things like that.

“I saw the holiday competitio­n advertised so I picked up the paper on Saturday.

“I noticed the shopping competitio­n and decided that I may as well enter that too since I was just sitting about the house.”

However, the 56-year-old doubts that he’ll get to spend any of the money himself, as his wife is eager to grab the vouchers.

Edward said: “My daughter also wants to get her hands on some of the vouchers too. She’s got four kids so she’ll be happy to have them. I’ll get myself a nice pair of jeans or a top maybe.”

Edward was at work when he first discovered he had won the competitio­n and was left shocked following the victory.

He said: “”I’ve told a few people, and they’ve all been very happy.

“My wife still doesn’t fully believe that we’ve won though, she thinks when she goes to get the shopping we’re going to get charged for it.”

The lucky winner also encouraged other readers to enter the competitio­n tomorrow.

He said: “I’m really not the type to enter competitio­ns or go on social media, I stay away from stuff like that – but I’d definitely recommend that other people enter. Everyone should take part because you can win some good stuff.”

ALL you need to do to be in with a chance of winning this week’s £100 prize is pick up your copy of the Weekend Telegraph tomorrow and follow the instructio­ns printed beside your personal item in the Tele’s shopping trolley. Good luck!
