thanks to my kids not listening to me, i won with Trebor

well this morning i sent my 15 year old son down to the shop for a loaf of bread, i made sure i gave just enough for the bread so no sweets lol
when he left my BF said i think his brother had given him money and a list of sweets to get, so on arriving home, I quickly saw he had some sweets and took them off him.
anyway i saw that on the pack of trebor there was a win sign so i thought i would check it out, went online and i had to fill the number in, so i did and WOW i won lol
