Antonio Eteuati is a happy man.
Yesterday, the 22-year-old became the second lucky winner of the $5,000 prize from the Vailima’s ‘Under the Cap’ promotion.
Mr. Eteuati had just finished working at Sails Restaurant on Saturday 7 June when he opened the beer that had the winning cap.

“I just felt good,” he said. “Real happy, one hundred per cent happy.”
The promotion began in March and so far $20,400 has been redeemed.
But Vailima’s Marketing Manager, Agnes Fruean, says there is a lot more to be won.
“We’ve still got $36,800 out in the market, still in the bottles, still to be collected in.”
There is one more $5,000 prize to be won, five $1,000 prizes to be won, thirteen $500 prizes to be won, and $20,300 in small amounts between $5 and $100.
Ms. Fruean says that the promotion helped increase their sales, and that doing another promotion in the future is on the cards.
“It created excitement in the market.
So people that would normally buy beer just for enjoyment, are now getting something extra on top of just buying a drink.”
The latest winner, Mr. Eteuati, lives in Vailele and plans to give the money to his parents.
The promotion ends on 27 June so that is the last day for the caps to be redeemed.
