There is no みんなさん. I was corrected very often when I used that as a student!
Off topic, but I've never known why Japanese learners so often say みんなさん.

I've heard North Americans, Asians and Europeans use it. Makes me wonder if they actually teach you that.

Besides it being wrong, みんなさん sounds VERY strange to us native speakers.
