Customers visiting participating Spar shops are invited to grab a microphone and start singing when they hear an iconic song played in store.

After singing for a minimum of 30 seconds, they stand a chance to win their shopping basket's contents for free.

The participating stores will sporadically play the iconic song on each Saturday for a month, with the competition having started in some other stores earlier this month.

As well as giving customers the chance to win their basket of shopping for free, it also offers the opportunity to win a month’s worth of groceries.
