In the past two weeks, the Daily Lexus Mega Raffle draw has gained immense popularity amongst Dubai Shopping Festival visitors.

With the massive daily prizes offered to winners including two Lexus cars, the LX470 and the ES350, and Dh100,000 ($27,226.44) as prizes the raffle has witnessed a huge rush in ticket sales all over Dubai, according to a DSF official.

The Lexus draw is one among the main three raffle draws held as part of DSF's key features of shopping and winning, the others being the Daily Grand Nissan Raffle and the Daily Gold Raffle.

Another addition to the already exciting Lexus raffle is the fortnightly draw where 15 winners are chosen to win Dh100,000 in cash amounting to a whopping total of Dh1.5 million.

The first fortnightly draw will be held on January 4, 2007 and is definitely to be looked forward to since the chances of winning are high. All tickets purchased during the two weeks will be included for the fortnightly prize.

At the end of the fourth week, 10 winners will emerge and win Dh100,000 totalling Dh1 million. The final two weeks offer prize money of Dh500,000 giving five winners Dh100,000 each. The draws are held in association with Al Futtaim Motors. The draws are aired live on Sama Dubai TV at 10pm daily direct from the Raffle Stage in Global Village.

The Lexus fortnightly draw is being organised for the first time in a DSF edition and hopes to increase the chances of winning for shoppers. The main three raffle draws are an integral part of DSF and play a major role in attracting thousand of visitors to Dubai.
