Two neighbours from Oldham bagged some top goods worth hundreds of pounds in a supermarket-sweep-style competition held in Royton this month.
Premier Heyside and Post Office in Royton partnered with Snappy Shopper to host a one-of-a-kind supermarket-sweep competition in-store at the beginning of October.
The store dash gives winners 60 seconds to run through the aisles and fill their baskets with as many goods and products as possible, excluding items such as alcohol, tobacco and scratchcards.

Leanne Murphy and her neighbour, Susan Wilson, were selected to take part in the grand event and collectively bagged £205.48 worth of goodies in one minute, with Snappy Shopper covering the costs.
Leanne, who is an Oldham-based beauty influencer with more than 8,000 followers on Facebook, then generously donated her entire £110 basket to Oldham Foodbank on Vulcan Street, to support local families in need.
She said: "The store dash was so fun and I was delighted to nominate Sue to take part with me.
"She really deserved it.
"She is always putting others before herself and is a literal angel.
"Thank you to Snappy Shopper for making it such a fun afternoon.”
Mos and Anj Patel, owners of Premier Heyside, also praised Leanne's generosity.
Anj said: "We would like to thank Leanne and Susan for taking part in our Snappy dash.
"We are so proud to have been a part of this inspiring gesture.
"Leanne’s donation to Oldham Foodbank shows her true community spirit and we are grateful to both for their participation.”
Premier Heyside and the couple's second store, Family Shopper Broadoak on Broad Oak Road, partnered with Snappy Shopper earlier this year.
Snappy Shopper is a delivery app that connects customers with local convenience stores for quick home delivery.
New customers in the area can use the code HEYSIDE10 for £10 off their first shop.
