Santa's First Christmas with Apple at MCC on The Rows

Santa Claus and his elves will be helping out at the MCC Apple Premium Reseller Chester store, collecting children’s wish lists prior to Christmas. Hordes of families are expected on Saturday at the Watergate Row shop where they will learn how iPhoto technology makes it easy to transform their Christmas memories. There will be a free goodie bag for every child with every demonstration, which includes a photograph with Father Christmas and there will also be the chance to win a free iPod on the hour every hour. Pupils from Christleton Primary School attended the Watergate Row based shop prior to the Saturday event and were taught by MCC staff how to transform digital photography into advent calendars, produce music and create comic strips with Comic Life.

The city centre shop is now open on Thursdays until 8pm and on Sundays too over the Christmas period. The knowledgeable sales staff at the Chester store are on hand to help customers choose their favourite Christmas purchases, such as iPods, Macbooks and accessories.

“This is MCC’s first Christmas in Chester and we are delighted that Santa will be staying all day at our iPhoto event,” said Scott Brenchley, Store Manager of MCC Apple Premium Reseller. “This will be an excellent event for everyone, young and old and there will be five per cent off everything instore. There will also be a draw to win an iPod every hour on the hour.
