TIM TAMS Arnott’s has been sharing clues to help locate three Golden Tim Tam packs hidden around Australia, worth $100,000. The first winning pack was found and claimed in Victoria and the second was sold in the past two weeks between Gosford and Terrigal and is likely to be sitting in someone’s pantry waiting to be opened. Check your pantries, Coasties!
