Optical illusions really put our minds to the test. Whether it's been a heavy weekend or a slow week at work, sometimes we just need a brainteaser to wake us up and get the analytical part of our brains working.

With that in mind, Tombola, the UK's biggest bingo site, has created a mind-boggling optical illusion which certainly puts the nation's eagle eyes to the test. In fact, the average person takes over 52 seconds to locate the hidden cash.

And two in five who’ve tried it so far even admitted to giving up completely. Within this optical illusion lie two hidden cash totals. Can you find them both and calculate the total prize?
