How It Works
- Pick up a passport at any participating 50th & France or Grandview business.
- To receive a stamp, make a purchase or pay for a service. The business will then stamp your passport and write in their business name.
- Have a favorite business? Keep going back! Each purchase or service visit earns another stamp.
- Collect 5 stamps total from participating Grandview and 50th & France businesses to qualify for the next prize drawing. Once you have 5 stamps, turn in your passport at:
- Edina City Hall – 4801 W. 50th St. (via mail or drop-off)
- Edina Liquor – Grandview – 5013 Vernon Ave S.
- Edina Liquor – 50th & France – 3943 W. 50th St.
- Once you turn in a passport, you can pick up another and keep playing for more entries until Nov. 15.
- Prize drawings will be held every three weeks, with a grand prize drawing at the end. Winners will be contacted directly to claim their gift cards to Grandview and 50th & France businesses. They will be featured by first name and last initial on City of Edina social media.
