ONE Caerphilly borough man won't have to worry about his bills for the next three months - thanks to the Argus.
Leigh Thomas from Pontymister was picked as the lucky winner out of 400 entrants, and will now have his bills paid for by us for three months.
Mr Thomas entered the South Wales Argus competition to collect tokens in the paper and send them in to us, with the prize being household bills being paid for three months – up to £2,000.
“I’m really chuffed,” said Mr Thomas.
“It’s very handy. I did not think I would win but first time for everything.”
