Take a break - with one of businessman Kelvin Bygrave's spare 27,000 KitKats.
Anyone want one? Businessman Kelvin Bygrave with a mountain of KitKats he is giving away once he's used the wrappers to buy a car in the KitKash promotion. Picture: STEVE BRADING (40849-c)
Entrepreneur Mr Bygrave has bought the chocolate goodies in the hope of driving off a brand new £12,000 car in confectioners Nestles' latest auction promotion KitKash.
The idea is that bidders fight it out with KitKash points allotted with each bar in a internet auction.
"Recently, a Peugeot went for one million eight thousand points - about £2,200 worth of KitKats," explained Mr Bygrave.
So Mr Bygrave, who is chairman of Walton Town Football Club, decided he would have a go - even though he does not eat KitKats.
Mr Bygrave, of Heronsgate, Frinton, will not be keeping all the Kitkats for himself he is offering them free to junior schools, youth groups and nurseries.
