Digicel prize money to help Melini Tupou He build house

Melini, who has been a Digicel customer for 12 years, won $10,000 cash in the Shake More Share More this Christmas Campaign grand prize for the Top Up and Opt In to Win promotion.

“I don’t really know what to say but thank you very much Digicel,” Melini said who was still shocked by the win on Friday.  

“God has answered one of your prayers today,” Digicel Tonga CEO, Anthony Seuseu said as he congratulated Melini.

Seuseu and his team visited Melini at her home to announce her lucky win and to present her with the $10,000 cash prize.

Yes, this is a real house completely encased in ice

This igloo -- er, house -- is in Webster, New York, just outside of Rochester. The area is one of the snowiest in the country, thanks to freezing winter temperatures and the moisture of the nearby Great Lakes. In the case of this prank of nature, high winds joined in the party and coated the house in layer after layer of ice.

Photographer John Kucko captured the scene, and says the area has had some particularly nasty weather lately.
