Nescafé Ricoffy drinkers show off their DIY capability for a chance at R1,000!
What would you create?
As South Africans, we are known for our ability to repurpose items. So, it seems fitting that Nescafé Ricoffy would use this information to their benefit.
They recently announced an upcycle brand challenge, that has seen a host of entries from South African Nescafé Ricoffy drinkers. The incentive? They could stand a chance to win R1,000.
The coffee might be finished but it doesn’t mean the tin is. Vus’ itin lakho! Show us how you’ve up cycled your tin and you could win 1 of 100 R1000 cash vouchers! Ts & Cs apply. #NESCAFERICOFFYRESPONSIBLYSOURCED pic.twitter.com/UdTikgr3VT

The competition began in mid-February and is due to end on 31 March, using the awkward hashtag #NescafeRicoffyResponsiblySourced on TikTok, Twitter, and Facebook.
The aim behind the upcycle competition is to encourage drinkers to find creative ways of extending the lifecycle of the tins.
And in true Mzansi style, South Africans have come out with their ingenuity and shared their creative styles...
Check out some of the ways they have upcycled their tins - from pencil holders to pot planters and even a bedside lamp...
I transformed mine into a stationary holder. As seen on the picture below. 📚😊❤️#NESCAFERICOFFYRESPONSIBLYSOURCED pic.twitter.com/cR6g8OBFyn
