Whether shopping for Christmas gifts or looking for something to do this festive season, people are being asked to keep their money in the local area by shopping and supporting local and Coolum Business and Tourism have even made this easy to do by way of their ‘Sunny Coast Cash Gift Card’ and are also giving away $1,000 in cash as an incentive to shop local.
The Sunny Coast Cash Gift Cards are available to purchase for amounts between $10 and $1,000 and work just like an eftpos card with the amount on the card able to be used at the participating businesses which include retail, food, accommodation and services.
The gift cards can be purchased at participating outlets and the card can be used at any participating store throughout the 4573 postcode – just look for the ‘Sunny Coast Cash Accepted Here’ sign.
And to encourage people to make their last-minute Christmas gift a local one, Coolum Business and Tourism is giving away $1,000 which will be drawn this coming Friday – December 24. To enter the competition and to win an extra special Christmas bonus, simply –
1 – Buy a Sunny Coast Cash Gift Card from participating retailers or via sunnycoastcash.com.au

Minister for Employment and Small Business Di Farmer said shopping local was the greatest gift for small business owners.
“Small businesses across the state have done such a wonderful job supporting the health of Queenslanders, often bearing the brunt of COVID restrictions,” Minister Farmer said.
“It’s been a really tough two years and these businesses have always put their communities first – and now it’s our turn.
“With the Christmas countdown well and truly on, now is a great time to get out and support small business by shopping local.”
