🎊 WE HAVE A CASH SPLASH WINNER! 🎊

A massive congratulations to Jewel G. from QLD – our very excited (and still slightly in shock!) $100K Cash Splash winner!

Jewel has been part of the Lovatts family since 1984 – that's over 40 years of puzzling! Until moving house 10 years ago, she'd kept every single issue she'd ever purchased. Now that's dedication!

Her winning magazine? Colossus Crosswords – though she also loves MEGA! Crosswords, Crossword & Puzzle Collection, Christine's BIG Crossword and Handy Sudoku. The Stinker is a real favourite for giving her brain a great workout.

Now retired, Jewel is a proud mum of four, grandmother to twelve and great-grandmother to one (with another on the way in July!). When she's not puzzling, she enjoys Diamond Art painting – especially dolphins – and plays ten-pin bowling in three teams: The Old Chooks, Hit and Miss, and the Lucky Strikes.
Jewel's advice to fellow entrants? "Keep entering … someone has to win!"

Curious about what happens behind the scenes at the big draw? Keep your eyes peeled for an exclusive video coming soon! 👀🎬
