IT could be you . . . Five Star Blinds owner Shaun Kinsley and manager Kristina Farrelly with lottery tickets up for grabs
A HOLLINWOOD company has just the ticket for people who dream of saying curtains to work and letting the light in on a millionaire lifestyle.
Five Star Blinds staff will hand out 1,000 lottery tickets to passers-by at the family firm in Manchester Road over the next four Mondays.
Owner Shaun Kinsley’s daughter Kristina explained: “We want to cheer everyone up on a Monday morning. My dad wants it to be a pick-me-up. At first I thought it sounded bizarre but it’s a great idea and we are hoping to make someone a millionaire.
“But even if it is only a small win it might make somebody’s day.”
Shaun set up the business 22 years ago and Kristina, a manager, helps to run it with brothers Mark, Ryan and Jamie.
Staff will be handing out 250 tickets on each of the Mondays, starting on Monday.
