A grateful Aussie mum couldn’t wipe the smile off her face after being presented with a $10,000 cash prize on live TV.
Western Sydney mother Ellen, who has just given birth to a baby girl, opened the front door of her Quakers Hill home to a giant cheque on Friday morning.
The new mum was gifted $10,000 worth of Coles groceries by Sunrise presenter James Tobin and a team of elated supermarket employees.
She couldn’t wipe the smile off her face after she opened the door and was quickly covered in colourful confetti and handed a bouquet of flowers.

Ellen explained to the Sunrise hosts that after giving birth to her daughter Amelia she was finding it hard to get to the shops.
‘I’m on maternity leave and have a four-week-old whose sleeping inside, my husband is at work, and I’m really, really overwhelmed. He’s a mechanic,’ she said.
‘It means lot, I’m on maternity leave so we’re on one wage.’
The new mum was asked what grocery item she would be using the most.
‘Probably nappies, she goes through so many nappies,’ she said with a laugh.
The Sunrise Knock Knock Competition gives four Australians the chance to win $10,000 worth of Coles groceries.
The next competition will close on 1 September with a judging panel to choose the winners of the life-changing prize.
