Vintage shop in Brighton hosts festive bauble hunt

Thirty numbered baubles have been hidden all over the labyrinthine vintage shop, Snoopers Paradise, in Brighton’s North Laine.

The hunt began on Saturday, November 16 and will continue until Saturday 23rd (or until all the baubles are discovered).

The launch of the bauble hunt coincided with Brighton Business Improvement District’s annual Festive Afternoon in which choirs and elves roam the city centre spreading festive spirit.  It also marked the launch of their Best Dressed Window competition.

Each numbered bauble relates to a prize waiting behind the cash desk. Prizes include chocolate and gifts, stall discounts (up to 50% off), Snoopers Paradise merchandise, cash vouchers and free shoots in the vintage photobooth.

Some baubles are easily discovered - others much more difficult - but no hiding places require anyone to move heavy or fragile objects.

Customers should take their bauble to the cash desk to claim their prize.

Jenny Hurren, of Snoopers Paradise, in Kensington Gardens, says:

“We’re getting into the Christmas spirit early at Snoopers, with a festive treasure hunt and a fabulous vintage Christmas window soon to be revealed! As ever we’re encouraging customers to think about purchasing pre-loved and vintage this Christmas.

“Not only is it getting more and more fashionable to gift second hand, it’s also the most ethical and cost effective option.”
