Red-heads are to be offered a series of discounts in Aberdeen’s Union Square this weekend.
The unusual move, where all ginger people will be able to make savings in a range of stores within the complex, has been made in tribute to Aberdonian Richard Macrae.
The 30-year-old received a joke discount card for his 30th birthday and bosses at Union Square were so entertained by his tongue-in-cheek card that they have decided to hold a one-weekend-only event giving discounts to gingers.
Ryan Manson, general manager of Union Square, said: “Richards tongue-in-cheek card made us laugh so much that we thought we should make the discount official – even if it’s for one weekend only.
“Ginger Aberdonians can eat and shop from participating retailers with fantastic discounts that are sure to keep them out of the red.”
Union Square are giving all redheads a 10% discount in stores including Nando’s, Superdry, AB10, Cotswold Outdoor and TM Lewin over the weekend.
People wearing a ginger wig will also qualify for the discount.
In order to claim the saving, quote ‘Ginger Discount’ when purchasing at participating stores. Happy shopping folks!
