Okay, I've won on the Euromillions. Not won the Euromillions. What should I do with my £2.40?

I think you should wait and speak to an IFA. Hope you ticked ‘no publicity’

DustyLee123 · 05/01/2024 17:42

Congratulations 🥳

Jackfrostnippingatmynose · 05/01/2024 17:46

Congratulations!
Reinvest it in another ticket or donate to charity box? Sadly it won't even buy you a celebratory coffee round here!

anybloodyname · 05/01/2024 17:47

Could I talk to you about extended warranty ?

happinessischocolate · 05/01/2024 17:50

What were the numbers? Looks like I still have time to buy a ticket.....

CharliesAngles · 05/01/2024 17:52

Oh OP! Now you’ve done it. You should know better - the first rule about winning the Euromillions is that you don’t tell anyone you’ve won the Euromillions!
Well, you’ve only got yourself to blame when the begging letters start rolling…
<shakes head>

Congratulations - drinks on you!

I won £5 on a Xmas scratch card Smile

RobinGet · 05/01/2024 18:23

Can you lend me £1.50 please? I’ll give it back when I’ve won the Set For Life.

MCOut · 05/01/2024 18:24

Add 10p and buy yourself another ticket!

Squiggles23 · 05/01/2024 18:24

Are you going to take it all at once? It might be better to ask if they will pay you 10p a month for the next two years so you don’t go too crazy and waste it!

Start looking on Rightmove for your dream home! (Or matchbox)

ScottChegg · 05/01/2024 18:43

You could use it as a start for saving up for a prescription?

Georgyporky · 05/01/2024 18:46

I thought this was going to be an AMA post.

Anyway, as a begging letter, I've got the plumbers arriving next week (allegedly), so I'd be grateful for a loan as part-payment for a Premier Inn rental.

TIA.

OldTinHat · 05/01/2024 18:47

I can beat that! I've won the postcode lottery and the lottery in the same week!

£5 M&S evoucher and £1 on a scratchcard.

Oh, the excitement...🙄

Georgyporky · 05/01/2024 18:50

@OldTinHat Please see my post immediately above yours. I'd be grateful for the M&S voucher to buy a sarnie while I'm in the Premier Inn.

Buy as many Cadbury's creme eggs as you can afford...I'm now off to Google how much they cost.

WonderingWanda · 05/01/2024 19:04

I'm going to lend you 10p so you can buy a pack of 5 from asda.

StephanieSuperpowers · 05/01/2024 19:05

Creme Egg prices are now beyond the means of Oprah. A chomp is a thrifty alternative .

madeinmanc · 05/01/2024 19:07

They really should let ten people win 24p! £2.40 is too much for one person!

Agapornis · 05/01/2024 19:07

Buy 2 premium bonds. I just won £175 😌

DontBeAPrickDarren · 05/01/2024 19:09

I won £67 over Xmas - 4 numbers! But as one was the bonus ball it didn’t count. Sad times.

UptoYou · 05/01/2024 19:11

Pay off your mortgage! That's what I'm going to do when I win next week!

Panjandrum123 · 05/01/2024 19:17

I’ve got £11.70 in my Lottery winnings account, it may take me a long while till I can fund a weekend somewhere nice. That’s my winnings between October and December. Woo bloody hoo!

secretrugbyfan · 05/01/2024 20:25

You might be able to afford a Freddo. Enjoy it....
