Human history has shown us the true grit of an individual’s dedication and effort in acquiring prized items, whether it involves competing for a cash prize or spending a ludicrous amount of money to stay at the top of a leaderboard. When there’s a will, there’s definitely a way.
It was recently reported that a Malaysian purchased 978 cups of CHAGEE in 30 days to win a grand prize of a RM15.9K travel gift card. Reported by Facebook user @/Ryusen 生活小分享, the person would have had to spend at least RM11.6K in CHAGEE drinks alone to achieve such a feat.

Following CHAGEE‘s “Collect Cups, Connect Everyday” contest, which ran from 19th June to 18th July, the individual only known as Leo on the leaderboard managed to average 32.6 cups per day for the grand prize. Facebook user Ryusen details his calculation methods of using CHAGEE’s cheapest beverage option, valuing RM11.90, to Leo’s astounding CHAGEE purchase. The calculation estimated that Leo would have had to spend at least RM11,648.20 to stay on top of the leaderboard.
The competition was straightforward, as the rankings are based on the number of qualifying cups purchased via the CHAGEE app during the campaign period. The rankings were nothing short of impressive, with 2nd place by an individual known as CHA holding 735 cups and 3rd at 557 cups by Faz. Even placing 100th place on the leaderboard required a minimum of 37 cups.

The contest has since ended, but CHAGEE has yet to reveal this mystery buyer on their socials. Regardless, they deserve kudos for their dedication.
