Sweet $2ok prize for Carter

AN EIGHT-YEAR-OLD Tasmanian boy claimed a belated birthday present, landing a $20,000 prize as the winner of the Glucojel Express Yourself Favourites Edition photo competition.

Tasmanian, Carter Lithgow, scooped the top prize for his Happy Birthday to Me photo of a Glucojel-inspired art-work featuring the number eight made from the pharmacy-only jelly beans above eight Glucojel candles.

The youngster said he will use some of his winnings to visit Melbourne, donate some cash to the local children’s hospital and “pay a few bills”.

Carter was presented with a cheque for $20,000 at Kings Meadows Discount Pharmacy, Launceston last week.
