Dinner on Us giveaway series

Winner, winner; what’s for dinner? 🍴

In an effort to support local restaurants and make life easier, tastier + cheaper for our community, we’re launching our new, 4-week Dinner on Us giveaway, sponsored by Lakeside Village. 🍔

Each week for four weeks, we’ll give one random winner five $50 gift cards to five restaurants of their choosing within Lakeside Village ($250 total value per winner). Winners get to use those gift cards to order take-out, delivery – or even donate them to healthcare workers or a family in need.

How it works:

We’ll host the giveaways on our Instagram (@theLALtoday) and launch them each Wednesday for the next 4 weeks. Entries will close the following Monday mornings when we’ll draw + announce the random winner (one winner per week).

How to enter:

To enter to win, find the post and follow the directions, which will be the same each week:

  1. Follow @shoplakesidevillage + @theLALtoday
  2. Tag 5 local restaurants within Lakeside Village that you love 💙
  3. Tag 1 friend (to share the love)

The first week’s giveaway is already live – see it + enter to win.

Major thanks to our local-lovin’ partner Lakeside Village for supporting this campaign + spending a total of $1,000 at Lakeland restaurants during this time of need.

P.S. If you’re with a Lakeside Village restaurant and you want to increase the chances that one of your followers wins $50 to your establishment (reminder: winners choose their own restaurant gift cards), share our giveaway post to your Instagram Story to spread the word.
