Pringles is partnering with Movember for the third year running to support men’s health.

This will kick off with a free Shave Down event at Drakes Golden Grove supermarket in Adelaide this Saturday (1 November). The Shave Down is designed to encourage Australians to start Movember fresh, spark meaningful conversations and raise awareness of men’s mental health.

Between 10am and 2pm, locals can take part in an array of in-store activities:

• Fresh shaves: Local “favourite” Uncle Gino’s Barber Shop will help participants start Movember in the “best form” with complimentary facial shaves.
• Meet Mr P: Snap a selfie withPringles’ Mr P mascot.
• Exclusive giveaways: A chance to win limited-edition Pringles and Movember collaborative bucket hats and emoji stickers.
• Interactive games: Interactive games ‘Pin the Mo on Mr P’.
• Movember conversation stations: Scan QR codes to access Movember Conversations online tools for practical tips on checking in with mates.
• Buy one, get one free: Exclusive to Drakes Golden Grove store, purchase a can of Pringles (134g/118g), show your receipt at the stand, and receive a free can (while stocks last).
• Half-price promo: Pringles cans (134g/118g) will be available in-store at 50% off for one day only at Drakes Golden Grove.

Ileana Andrei, Senior Brand Manager for Salty Snacks at Kellanova ANZ, says starting the conversation can make all the difference.

“Pringles is proud to partner with Movember for a third year to encourage Australians across the nation to connect with their mates and check in on each other,” she says.  

“The Shave Down at Drakes Golden Grove is a light-hearted way for the community to get involved while also supporting an important cause. We hope to show our true commitment to supporting men’s mental health through our ongoing relationship with the incredible charity that is close to many Aussies’ hearts.” 

Movember Director of Partnerships Kieran Ryan says too many men still struggle in silence because they don’t know how to start the conversation.

“Events like the Shave Down help normalise those chats and remind men that support is available,” he says.

“Beginning the month with a community shave down is a great way to show that small actions can make a big difference.”
