代词指代及介词搭配问题

老师您好,我在阅读《To Kill A Mockingbird》时读到这么一个句子感觉不太好理解:

His family was from Maycomb County originally, his mother worked for a photographer in Meridian, had entered his picture in a Beautiful Child contest and won five dollars. She gave the money to Dill, who went to the picture show twenty times on it.

请问结尾处的 it 指代的是 the money 吗?如果是的话,那就是on the money (five dollars),表达“ 使用某物做了某事  do sth. with sth.”  此处为什么用介词 on 而不用介词 with? 这是规范的英文表达吗?
