Not exactly getting richer, just not getting poorer; the budget they set aside for the competition is not being used up, so they can run it for longer or increase the prizes. More for me when I win!!Etccarmageddon said:There's a pattern developing! A radio station getting richer each day too!

& yes, of course the radio station makes money from it - they’re a business, not a charity. Highly unlikely that the advertising revenues bring in the kinds of profits that would be needed to have given away all the money that they have to date, over all the competitions they’ve run …Wins - £48k 2019, £5k 2020, £1000 2021, £280 2022 ... £196k to the £1/4 million target ...5
