Over 100,000 people entered our recent Win A Van prize draw.

This year’s lucky winner Alan Fitzgerald, an electrician and plumber from Wolverhampton, won first prize and is now the proud owner of a Ford Transit Custom van worth over £26,000, plus £4,000 worth of Makita power tools!

Alan couldn’t believe it when he got the call letting him know he’d won the top prize.

"It came as a real shock! I’d seen a poster in the Dudley branch advertising the competition so entered whilst I was waiting to collect an order, and then just forgot about it because I thought the van was unattainable. When I got the voicemail saying I’d won I had to replay the message three times! You never think the winner will be someone local, let alone yourself."

Alan is a sole trader, a former maintenance engineer who retrained following redundancy. He now works as an electrician and plumber fitting kitchens and bathrooms. He collected the keys to his brand new van from Pete Walker, Divisional Director for the central division, at his local Toolstation branch in Dudley.

You’ve got to be in it to win it, so make sure to keep an eye out when shopping online or in branch for more competitions!
