A shopping trip to Courts in Linden has turned into a major payout for Shamain Thom Mohabir, who walked away with $1,157,000 after becoming the first winner of the company’s Catch D Cash promotion.
Thom Mohabir, a Courts customer for the past two years, qualified for the promotion after purchasing a television and a Whirlpool refrigerator at the Linden branch. A release from Courts said that her purchase was made on credit, with nothing paid down upfront, but that did not stop her from entering the promotion. Under the Catch D Cash offer, customers who spend $79,999 or more on credit, with a repayment period of at least 24 months, are automatically entered into the draw.
Before stepping into the Catch D Cash machine on Saturday, November 7, Thom Mohabir admitted that she was both excited and nervous about the experience. She however managed to snatch $1,157,000 within the allotted time.
Her win marks the first of three opportunities for customers to take home millions in cash as Courts rolls out the promotion through the end of the year, the release said.
The promotion, which runs from October 1 to December 31, 2026, offers customers the chance to win from a combined $9 million in potential cash prizes. The first round offers a chance to catch up to $1.5 million, followed by up to $2.5 million in December and a grand opportunity to catch up to $5 million in January 2027. Customers who qualify but are not selected in an earlier draw will remain in the pool for subsequent draws, the release added.
To enter, customers simply need to shop at any Courts location nationwide and spend $79,999 or more on credit, with a repayment period of 24 months or longer.
Whether purchasing furniture, appliances or other household essentials, qualifying customers are automatically entered.
