Melanie Hollingsbee says she will put the money towards the summer holidays with her children Anya and Mia.

The brand new competition started on Monday, February 26, and gave listeners like the Broadstairs mum four opportunities a day to come on air and guess which three mystery celebrities were saying the phrase “Who’s Got the Cash”.

They had to be quick – because for every incorrect gameplay the jackpot total dropped by £50.

Two of the celebrities were guessed in the first four days and so the race was on in week three to find that mystery other celebrity.

After a clue was revealed on the kmfm website this morning (March 11), Melanie was the listener who finally identified all three.

She bagged herself the £1,400 jackpot on Daytimes with Andy Walker.

Andy said: “What an exciting game! We’ve never played ‘Who’s Got the Cash’ on kmfm before but the listeners loved it.

“The jackpot shrinking really added an element of urgency to the game for us and the listeners.

“Huge congratulations to our winner Melanie Hollingsbee for getting that £1,400 jackpot. We hope you have a great summer with Anya and Mia!”

There is even more winning on kmfm coming soon – including £1,000 Friday on March 22 and on Easter weekend two pairs of tickets are up for grabs to see JLS live at Dreamland this summer.
