How it works

The special slabs will look just like ordinary Whittaker’s Peanut Slabs®. They are not specially marked.
The special slabs are not being sent out with a particular product “batch”. Rather, they will be hidden directly in store during the promotional period. This means that they could be hiding in a batch of recent stock, or a batch of older stock.
How to enter
To enter the promotion, the entrant must complete the following steps during the promotional period:
Purchase any Whittaker’s Peanut Slab® individual bar product (“qualifying transaction”) from any participating store and open the product to see whether it contains a special slab (i.e. a gold or silver slab).
During the promotional period, a total of 1 Whittaker’s Peanut Slab® bar will contain a “gold slab”, and a total of 75 Whittaker’s Peanut Slab® bars will contain a “silver slab”.
The gold slab will include a phone number that the entrant must call during the promotional period in order to redeem their prize.
Each silver slab will include a unique code that entrants must enter on the website specified on the silver slab, in order to redeem their prize.
The Promoter is not responsible if your mobile device/desktop is not sufficiently capable for the purpose of submitting an entry.
