Monday 5 December 2022: Metro60 is spreading cheer this Christmas by delivering groceries, and family photos with Santa, to homes in select suburbs across Sydney and Melbourne in under 60 minutes. 

From Monday, 5 December to Friday, 9 December, between 4pm and 8pm, customers will have the chance to book a Christmas photo shoot with Santa via Metro60 at their home.

The Metro60 Santa delivery is a fun and convenient way to get into the Christmas spirit, helping customers skip the lengthy Santa photo queues, saving time and money. Customers can create their own festive scenes and include anyone (even the family pet) in the photos. 

David Berger, Co-founder at Metro60 said: “Taking photos with Santa is an age-old holiday tradition, capturing special memories for families that are well treasured. 

“This year, Metro60 will be not only the most convenient way to get your groceries delivered in under 60 minutes, but the easiest and most magical way to surprise your family, kids, or pets with an early visit from Santa. 

“We’re always looking to provide more value to customers, especially during another challenging year. Offering customers a visit from Santa for family photos will do what our grocery service does: give time-poor customers some valuable time back so they can spend it doing the things they love.” 

Customers can opt-in to the Santa photo when checking out in the Metro60 app by using the promo code SANTA (all caps), while doing their afternoon and evening grocery shopping (standard minimum spend $20 applies). If the booking is confirmed, a photographer and Santa will arrive at the customer’s home within 60 minutes to snap a cherished family Christmas photo.

Metro60 will keep the Christmas spirit alive right through until Christmas by giving customers the opportunity to win one weekly prize of $5,000 and a major prize of $100,000. The major prize winner will be announced on Thursday 5 January 2023. Customers who purchase a participating product will automatically receive one entry into the draw. 

This service is available exclusively through the Metro60 App which is available on Apple’s App Store and Google Play. More information is available at metro60.com.au.
