- A user in India won a PS5 Slim by entering a code from a Rs 20 Munch chocolate bar

- The viral Reddit post received over 9,200 upvotes and many comments on the user's luck
With the Black Friday sale underway, the prices of the Digital and Disk editions of PlayStation 5 have been reduced worldwide. While those looking to fulfil their childhood dream would be ordering one, an individual had the rub of green going their way. In a now-viral Reddit post, a lucky user in India revealed that they won a PS5 Slim after buying a Rs 20 Munch chocolate bar.
"So I was with my friend in a supermarket, I really craved munch to relive my nostalgia. He brought me one for 20rs. I saw that it had a chance to win playstation offer. Just randomly went to the website and typed in the unique code and forgot about it," the user wrote in the r/ps5india subreddit.
Three days later, the user received a message stating they had snagged a PS5 Slim. At first, they could not believe it was real and thought someone might have pulled a fast one on them.
"I didn't believe it and thought it was a scam. Then the delivery ID came and I was ecstatic," they wrote, adding: "I am from a middle-class background and always dreamed of playing with a PlayStation and this all happened 2 months ago."
Despite hitting the lottery, the user said they initially planned to sell the console to cover some urgent expenses, as the games they wanted were too costly. However, they had now decided to keep the device and invest in the PlayStation subscription service.
"But i decided to keep it and after doing some side gigs, I am planning to buy PS Plus on black friday sale and play out my dreams."
