Vol. 19 No. Roy, Utah 41 Thursday, September It was bargain day last Saturday at the Roy High School gymnasium when nearly 1,000 persons from Roy, Ogden, Clearfield, Layton, Clinton, Hooper, Taylor, Sunset and surrounding communities attended the first ROY-ALAuction Bucks auction. Since the first of June, area residents have been collecting the valuable A.uction Bucks by shopping participating Roy merchants and businessmen, and were rewarded by one of the most unusual promotions ever staged in Roy. The participating merchants offer one ROY-ALAuction Buck for every dollar spent by the consumer. An example of the tremendous bargains at the auction was the $3,000 1973 Chevrolet Vega GT which went to Helen H. Bell of Clearfield for a high bid of only 5,000 Auction Bucks. This means that for the $5,000 she spent for furniture at Dee Sparrow Showplace in Roy, she ultimately received $8,000 in value. A similar great bargain went to Jon R. Haggstrom of Layton, who won the $500 Lusneyland vacation package for a high bid of 3,100 Auction Bucks.
