We’ve had a great response to our PSA Plus Holiday Homes Photo competition with some quality snaps making it hard to choose a winner.
So congratulations to our members Heidi and Peter, whose stunning shots from Rotorua and Carters Beach, earn them each a UE Megaboom as first prize winners.
Nine other members are receiving runner up prizes – a $100 discount on their next PSA Holiday Home booking. Thanks to all those who entered and enjoyed our holiday homes over the Summer!
