As you may or may not know (hopefully you do...)Β Mother's Day is coming up this Sunday, and we wanted to do something special to show appreciation to all the mum's who've had to put up with some crazy shenanigans over the years.
So here is the deal: write in and tell us something you've put your poor mum through, and we will pick the top 3 to each receive a $500 voucher to share with their mum, in a hope to try make up for what you put them throughΒ π€ͺ
We asked the Saski Team to share some of their favourite troublesome moments to make you feel better as well..
P.S. We understand mother's day may be a sensitive occasion for some of you, and if you'd like to submit a story about your closest 'mother' figure we'd love to hear it as wellΒ β€οΈΒ
** COMPETITION CLOSED **
Congratulations to our three winners:
"Β Dear Mum,
Iβm sorry for changing all the numbers in your phone to my friends numbers, so when you texted their parents asking if I was at their house my friends could reply and say I was, when really I was god knows where. Iβm also sorry for sneaking out and going to every after party I wasnβt allowed to go to, and for also never admitting it until now. Love you mum xx"

"Dear Mum,
Iβm sorry about that time I forgot I had turned the bath on and went out to play with my friends on the street and then came home to water coming through the kitchen ceiling lights and flooding the entire upstairs bathroom. Iβm sorry for then denying that I turned the bath on and making you think that you were going mad and had turned it on yourself. At least we got new carpet right? XX"

"To myΒ dad who alsoΒ had to be my mum,
I'd like to apologise for throwing out the lunches you handmade for me every morning, all through year 1-12 of school. I'm also sorry for stealing money from your car/pants to instead buy junk food from the tuckshop. If it makes you feel better I regularly look back at all the food I wasted and wish I had it to eat at work...
P.S. Thank you for successfully pulling off the role of mother and father, you're a legend.
