Chippy Clicky


Now there’s even more reason to love our delicious McCain Micro Chips, because you could win a prize every three minutes with our Ping & Win on-pack promotion. From Smartphones, to digital cameras, to free packs of Micro Chips, the odds are tasty and they’re staked in your favour.
Remember, Micro Chips only take three minutes to prepare. So by the time they’re microwave-ready and you hear the ‘ping’ you’ve been waiting for, you could be a winner. (Although let’s face it, even if you’re not, the chips are a mouth-watering consolation.) Between April 19th and 20th June, look out for special Ping & Win packs, and you could be three minutes away from a delicious prize. Good luck.

    Can you only enter each code once? I bought a multi pack and the same code was on all 4 packs.

    Also I'm probably being totally blind but it says NPN for N.Ireland but I cannot find any other info about this on the site and have looked in both T&C's and FAQ. Anyone see anything?
