Residents who bring batteries to drop-off depots will have a chance to win gift cards for Visa and Amazon
You'll soon have a chance to save some money and help the planet.
From Monday until Friday next week, the Niagara Region is holding a battery drop-off contest as part of Earth Week.
Each day, the first ten residents to drop off acceptable batteries at one of the region's drop-off locations will get a $10 Amazon gift card.
As well, all residents who drop off batteries will be entered into a draw to win a $50 Visa gift card.
