In pub? Get an Uber ride home tonight courtesy of beer giant

-

CHRISTMAS Eve is traditiona­lly an evening spent in the pub for Huddersfie­ld folk.

And despite the merriment and drinking, this often presents a dilemma on how to get home at the toll of the bell for last orders.

But it’s good news this year, since Budweiser has stepped in offering to foot the bill for cabs home.

The beer giant hopes the move will prevent people from getting behind the wheel after too many festive tipples.

Steph Okell, from Budweiser UK, said: “We’ve run a lot of responsibl­e drinking campaigns in the past, but for 2016 we wanted to take our commitment­s to the next level with an initiative of epic proportion­s that would really have an impact.”

To get a free taxi, you will need to download the Uber app, then enter your details. Budweiser will then send you a discount code which you can enter while booking an Uber cab between 4pm and 11.59pm on Christmas Eve.

All you need to do is open the menu on the left hand side, hit “Payment”, select “Add Promo/Gift code”, enter your code then press “Add”.

If your journey is finished by 1.30am, the taxi will remain free.

For more informatio­n on the offer and for full terms and conditions visit www.budweiser.co.uk or visit the Budweiser UK Facebook page. You need to be 18 to apply.
