That's Life Tightwad Tip accepted - quick question

Hi - I submitted a Tightwad Tip to That's Life and have had an email back saying they want to use it in a future issue and just clarifying some details. I submitted a photo and the question they asked relates to the photo so I'm assuming they'll be paying the £50. However there's no mention of any payment in the email or which issue it'll be in - has anyone got any experience of having a tip published, if so how long does it take to get the cash?

    Well done

    Magazine vary but it should be no longer than 6-8 weeks after publication. Usually they arrive 1-2 weeks after publication.
    For thousands of people this Christmas, their must-have gift is far more vital than the latest gadget or toy – it’s blood. Please don’t let the festivities and cold weather prevent you from giving them the ultimate gift… give blood.
