GREENVILLE, SC-Alan Webb and Joann Piccozzi of Island Home Gallery in Shelter Island, NY, opened the grand prize fortune cookie at 828 International's High Point showroom last month. That means they will be headed to Beijing for a week-long trip, courtesy of 828.
Those visiting 828 during the International Home Furnishings Market in April were treated to cookies filled with prize-bearing fortunes. In addition to the grand prize, other give-aways included discounts, free freight, $100 cash and Dynasty collection rugs.
Alan Webb and Joann Piccozzi of Island Home Gallery opened the grand prize cookie on the last day of the promotion. "We have always wanted to go to Beijing and are thrilled to win,€VbCrLf said Piccozzi, owner of Island Home Gallery. "We've been customers of 828 since opening our store in 2002. In fact, 828 is the only rug line we carry. It is so diverse, well priced, and easy to sell, we see no reason to carry anything else.€VbCrLf
828 International held the promotion in honor of its Dynasty Collection, a new series of million-point, hand carved rugs made in China.
Webb and Piccozzi plan to take their seven-day trip in October. While in China, they will tour the plant where 828's Dynasty Collection is manufactured.
