We offered you a chance to bid for a cuppa with a fabulously famous kiwi.
Earlier in 2012 Trade Me users bid for dates with five more of New Zealand's favourite celebs. Thanks again to all the celebrities who proudly supported this year's celebrity auctions by auctioning dates with their good selves on Trade Me.
Here's a breakdown of the bids:
