If you won the EuroMillions, what would be the first thing you'd actually go out and buy?

[ChickenMaths]

As per title, imagine you've somehow suddenly just come into a huge amount of money. What would be the first thing you'd go out and buy? Not talking about houses, cars etc. as all that will come with time. Also assuming that you are going to donate a healthy portion to charity and those you know who need it. I mean the first thing you're actually going to leave the house and spend money on for yourself?

I would go to the nearest nice department store and buy every permutation of the Chanel perfume products so all the soap, body creams, talc, sprays etc. and a big bottle of each eau de parfum. Would probably buy a nice bottle of champagne too but still be too scared to buy Cristal or the like!

I'd go out and pick a new bed and mattress, and a new phone. Sigh...

Straight to Germany or Austria for a week or two detoxing and being bossed about in a spa. Come back feeling refreshed and invigorated to work out what to do with all that money!

Best. Idea. Ever.

I would pay my vet instead of waiting until pay day.

Euromillions size amount, I'd find an available house to rent and never see my noisy inconsiderate neighbours again. Then, I'd look for somewhere to buy.

A holiday, yes definitely a holiday 🙂

Assuming the kids were in nursery and I had access to the money I'd won... I would go out for a nice lunch, three courses and a glass or two of champagne... then I'd peruse a few locals shops and buy some nice things for the kids (the type of thing you look at and love and then see the price tag and put it back).

I'd go grocery shopping at Marks & Spencer.

I'd get on the train to London and, like a pp, head straight for Liberty.

On the way home, I'd buy a bottle of champagne, an ice bucket and three crystal glasses.

I'd leave them on the kitchen table for when DH and DS got home, and make them guess why the house was full of purple shopping bags

Nooooooo 😀

awesome…off to google

I’d check out all my baskets and wish lists…eBay/Amazon/Etsy/silkfred etc! Stuff I’ve saved for ages (years sometimes) but waiting to treat myself…

Yes. Really tasty dinner. I’d buy dh an RS4 before telling him, I’d drive it up and Chuck the keys at him and tell him it’s a stop gap until the one he’s chosen comes in. Then he can pick the colour, toys etc and that’s also how I would tell him.

we rent so it would be a house as quickly as I could as well.

charities. Plenty of animal, wildlife ones. Then, once we are settled I will volunteer at a rescue and maybe train as a vet nurse.

An appartment or house for DS.

And a crate of champagne.

I've done the Reading spa, Mr B's emporium, it was truly wonderful. Hot chocolate and a brownie, great advice and an armful of books.

A maccies. I'm absolutely brassic right now and you'd give my right arm for a mcmuffin or double cheeseburger.

Then I'd pay off my mortgage and get in appropriate professionals to do all the work of doing it up. And a car/campervan.

I’d probably go out for dinner to celebrate 🤷🏻‍♀️. I literally can’t think of any material stuff I’d rush out to buy. House and car in the next few weeks for sure.

I would go to Selfridges and Liberty and spend thousands on make up, perfumes, candles, skincare, a nice bag etc.

Pre child, I always imagined flying off to a luxury resort (first class, obviously) to sit on a white sandy beach browsing Rightmove to pick a house, but now I have a toddler I probably would have to be a bit more practical....and book a private jet for us instead.

I'd go online and order myself an expensive handbag.

Quit my job and book a holiday.

Then enrol for a further degree in something I love doing but which doesn't have good pay prospects compared to my current career.

Hmm I'd either go to my local garden centre and buy all the David Austen roses I love or I'd go to Bath and make two stops - one to Persephone Books to order their entire catalogue, and a second to Mr B's bookshop to buy every other book I fancied.

Then cake.

I'd take my two disabled children and get them the best lightest superduperest wheelchairs with electric wheels as opposed to the clunky nhs chairs

I would buy a ps5 and Hogwarts Legacy.
And the big Hogwarts Lego set.
And book an appointment with a personal shopper at John Lewis to replace everything in my wardrobe.

Definitely the nicest bottle of Champagne I could get from the local Booths. Then probably a meal out.

I would probably buy a car the next day, I know exactly what I want just don't have the money yet so I'd be straight of your buy it!

Not talking about houses, cars etc. as all that will come with time.

The only thing I need now is a new car. Everything else can wait.

I'd buy my grandparents house for them,pay a good chunk to cover their bills for the next 10 years, then go and buy a new car - mines falling to bits and costing a fortune in repairs
