Answer 1

I would put the money towards a swimming spa for my best friend so she is able to use it for her health to strengthen her legs which she has had problems with for years. She has done so much for so many people and always puts everyone else before herself, nothing would make me happier than to be able to do something for her.

Answer 2

I would invest $5000 of it and with what's left, I would take my husband over on the Spirit of Tasmania, with our car and spend 2 weeks travelling around and seeing Tasmania. My husband has never been over to Tasmania before and everytime we try and save money for a nice holiday, something always happens and we end up needing the money for something else. My husband is on sickness benefits at the moment, so if I won $10,000 our Christmas this year will look a whole lot brighter!my husband decided to widen a door way and has left it that way it looks terrible. Also my husband decided to pull apart our laundry 12 months ago and it still has no floor covering just chip board, no walls, no plumbing and there is half a ceiling. Also we have no skirting boards throughout the house you can see outside from inside through the floor. So just to name a few, but the list goes on and on. You would think that marrying a carpenter i would have everything finished but anyway it's funny really, I suppose he gets sick of it because he is doing it day in and day out. I would just really love to win the $10,000 to take the pressure of my husband and get our home looking lovely and to be safe for our two little children. Thanks for this opportunity.

Answer 3

My wife & I married in '83 before that we lived together for over three years. We have never been alone together since we first met. We both had children from previous marriages which we brought up together and now we are bringing up grandchildren. In all this time my wife & I have never been on a holiday or even had a honeymoon. What I would do with the ten grand is get someone in (family) to look after the children for us & take my wife away for a week of R & R and with the money left over buy some of the things for the kids that we have been unable to afford getting for them. If there was anything left over after all that I would either put it into fixing up the car I have, a ’94 Holden, or getting a 7 seat ‘people mover’ to cope with all the family.

Answer 4

Channel 7's National Bingo Night $10,000 prize would be spent purchasing a new computer which I could connect to my new big screenTV. I can then log onto your Yahoo!7 site at 7yahoo.com/national-bingo-night, download the National Bingo Night games card, watch Channel 7's National Bingo Night games, and go directly to Yahoo!7 to check if I've won, all from the luxury of my lounge suite. What a life.

Answer 5

Thier grandmother (46) and thier great grandmother (74), All have never ever had the experience to travel in an aircraft!! Ten thousand dollars would see to it that they got the opportunity to be able to do this together - as a family and enjoy life on a magnificent mystery flight, somewhere in Australia. With the existing amount of money our family would finally have a Fantastic Christmas without the financial stresses. And... If there was still a little left...it would turn into savings for the childrens education & future. (hey? maybe we could fly somewhere nice for christmas!....) Life is all about having fun, money makes having fun a little easier. I also have my elderly parents who still look after my 101 year old grandfather who need a holiday as well so that would make my year being able to take them with me. I have an inoperable brain tumour and still want and try to keep my life normal even thou I am a pensioner. Lastly I'd buy a new LED 102cm TV to watch National Bingo and all my favourite 7 shows!

Answer 6

hi I would give all the money to a lady I know who has an autistic child and has heaps of bills and hardley any support from her ex husband. I think that this would be better as they really need the help. The young child is really hard to handle and has behaviour problems and to me this money would pay off her bills and maybe take a break from the demanding life she has had. I thankyou for considering this as she would benifiet and because the world is not as honest as it once was and some people get ruled by money I would love her to come on the show and get presented the money as she really deserves it. If that would be not possible could chan 7 suprise her. Please let me say that I am a worker, just a battler and if I could make someone happy it would be her and brittiany her daughter, they deserve it more than i do or 99 per cent of us so please consider this. thankyou from mark 0419738799

Answer 7

We bought a car 4 years ago and probably like many other people we bought a lemon. We bought it for 7.500 dollars which was the last bit of supper i had and the other half of we just had a heart attack. With two great kids to get from one place to another they were only 3 & 4 when there father got sick he was 42. So now here we are 5 years later the boys are 8 & 9 and we have spent 3 times that amount keeping it on the road. AND JUST today i looked outside and there was oil spewing all over the driveway again.

Answer 8

If I won $10000.00 I would have to pay some of the bills an then maybe take the family on a well deserved holiday. I would have to give my mum & dad some money there car is not running so well and they are strugglers.

I would be so excited to win the money as I have never won anything in my life. Winning that amount would help me and my family out so much you would never know how grateful I would be.

I havent had much luck in my life and I know that there are alot of other people out in the world that experience the same as me.

I would also have to pamper my dog with a hydro bath shes been a great pet and deserves a pressie as well.

So come on vote for me I will probably need all the help you can give me. Thanks for reading my answer.

Answer 9

Thats is easy, pay someone to fix up our backyard, like Better Homes & Gardens would do it, so my poor husband can sit back a enjoy while relaxing. Then if any is left over, take him on a retreat, where he can have special treatments for relaxation, stress relief etc. I have had major surgery on my right knee, (total knee replacement) this means that hubby has been working seven days at work and been my carer as well as cleaning our house and cooking etc. He also, although I dont know how, has built us a pegola so we can sit outside without getting too much sun or rain. This will be an on going thing as my carer until my knee is without pain. (about another 8 months) Yeppers, thats what I would do with it. We have been married since we were 20, 37 years. Did I pick the "right" man or what.

Answer 10

I could use the money to pay debts that I carelessly racked up over a period of time but I think I will take my second option.

Since March this year, my mother, who has a mental illness has been in and out of hospital having shock treatment etc. With the help of her loving family and a totally devoted husband, she is finally on the road to some sort of normality.

But since being away, she has missed, her anniversary, dad's birthday, my daughter's first birthday, my other daughter's 3rd birthday, another's 7th birthday and several other grand kids birthdays as well. These are things that she cherishes so close to her heart.

With the $10,000 I would allow her to have those memories by having them all over again. The balance she can use to have a holiday with dad somewhere nice and relaxing.
