Subang (5 May 2017) — Having kicked off the Energizer ‘Shop In The Dark’ 2017 campaign in early April with the Facebook Digital Contest and mail-in entries, Energizer officially introduced the third leg of its entry submission for the contest with the launch of Virtual Reality (VR) roadshows at MYDIN USJ, Subang on 5 May.

Following the overwhelming response from last year’s Energizer ‘Shop In The Dark’ campaign, Energizer in partnership with MYDIN is once again organizing the Energizer ‘Shop In The Dark’ 2017 for its loyal fans and MYDIN shoppers who will be in the running to win a shopping spree worth RM3,500!

Shoppers who are interested to participate through the roadshows or mail in entry are required to provide a proof of purchase with a minimum of RM10 worth of Energizer or Eveready products.

“After last year’s performance at the grand finale, we felt that we needed to up the game to keep our participants on their toes. The new virtual reality ‘Shop In The Dark’ 2017 challenge at selected MYDIN stores offers an entirely different experience of shopping in the dark. Shoppers will enter our virtual store with a list of items to look for within a fixed time. This will be a whole new experience of shopping in the dark for the eyes and ears. With our Energizer Max batteries which is now 8x longer lasting, we are certain you can find your way,” said Mr. Lee Kim Chye, Energizer’s Business Director (Malaysia and Singapore).
