Yahoo News Dumbarton mum smashes record in Supermarket Sweep style convenience store dash
A Dumbarton mum-of-two has set a new record by collecting over £200 worth of shopping – including an impressive 31 bags of sweets – in just 60 seconds during supermarket sweep style store dash.
Carrieann McKinley was chosen alongside friend Sheena Duncanson to take part in the Snappy Shopper challenge at One Stop Partick, Dumbarton Road, Glasgow.
The pair had 60 seconds to grab as many items as they could, with Snappy Shopper covering the cost of both baskets.

Carrieann was nominated by her “wonderful” sister Sandra, who cheered her on from the sidelines.
In total, the two women managed to collect an incredible £323 worth of goods, with Carrieann’s basket alone valued at £198 – making her dash the highest basket total since Snappy Shopper’s Store Dash conception.
Her haul included 31 bags of sweets and seven chocolate sharing tubs, which she plans to share with her 10 siblings and her children.
Reflecting on the experience, Carrieann said: “I was thrilled to be chosen for the dash! My kids will be over the moon with all the treats I got, and my sister will have a good laugh about this for years to come.”
Nathalie Fullerton, owner of One Stop Partick, said the event was a great success.
She said: “A huge thank you to the Snappy Shopper team for choosing our store for this exciting dash. It was a fantastic way to give back to the local community that supports us, and we’re delighted to have been part of such a fun and memorable experience for our customers.
“We’re already looking forward to hosting more events and giveaways to show our appreciation to the community.”
