Number 13 turns out to be lucky after all as Shondell from Elizabeth East becomes SAFM’s $50K Alphabucks winner!
Playing with SAFM Adelaide’s breakfast hosts Bec & Soda, Shondell was among 48 other Adelaide listeners who were vying for the $50,000 today.
LISTEN TO THE WINNING MOMENT:
It was a tough game for Shondell who had the letter “S” and her answers had to go to a team of SAFM adjudicators on the answer “spaghetti squash”.
It was ruled that spaghetti squash was indeed a vegetable starting with ‘S’. This meant that Shondell, the Elizabeth East mother of two became SAFM’s $50K Alphabucks winner.
Bec & Soda were thrilled the money went to such a worthy winner with Soda asking what the $50,000 would mean for her.
