Eight people here were given a chance to win a mall shopping spree valued at up to $10,000 from Citadel FCU. The eight finalists were selected at random from a sweepstakes at each of CFCU's branches. Once they arrived at the Exton Square Mall, the credit union created a "game show-like atmosphere, featuring a stage, music, and as host, CFCU SVP Mike Schnably. Each finalist was invited up onto the stage to select a prize box before Christine Smyth selected the grand prize box, and earning her the chance to spin the prize wheel to determine the dollar amount of prize. Her wheel spin netted her $7,500. Each of the seven second place prize winners received a $500 mall gift certificate. As other shoppers watched, Citadel representatives handed out prizes, including scratch off cards from Citadel, which granted some lucky shoppers instant gift certificates to the mall.
