Redeemed points for kitchen blender, drives off with new hybrid car

TORONTO, March 24 /CNW/ - The simple act of redeeming RBC Rewards points for a new kitchen blender has won Penny Gottfred of Thunder Bay a new Toyota Prius. When Penny went online to use her points to purchase a blender from the RBC Rewards merchandise catalogue last year, her name was automatically entered into the national 2006 RBC Rewards Redeem to Drive Contest. Today, she will be honoured as the contest winner, and awarded the smart key entry fob to her new silver Prius, at the Thunder Bay's Edward and Redwood branch of RBC Royal Bank, where she's been a client since 1975. "This is a great example of the unique ways we're finding to thank our clients for their business," said Andrew Mitchell, vice-president, RBC Rewards Toyota Canada Inc., Kathryn Ruhland, media@toyota.ca , (416) 431-8333
