Very lucky!

Are you going to treat yourself with a part of it and bank the rest?

If this money materialises my plan is to give equal amounts to Katie (daughter) and Nadine (step daughter) then put the rest towards a holiday!

Kay ann today you would get $1968.60 american dollars and wait for it, $2.506.63 NZ dollars, a nice little sum either way.

Wow! I guess it was legit...but make sure it actually clears before you splurge, just as an extra precaution. I'm a little sensitive to fraud right now... :p

Awesome news, now get planning that holiday, we want to hear all about it,of course when the cheque has cleared that is,what a great win,you might be on a role, so keep entering comps, i belong to a comp site in nz, which lists all the comps and i have had some luck there, just little wins, but waiting for something bigger soon, lol. :)
