Just won the lottery! I COULD CRY!!

[confusedlady10]

Just thought I'd scratch off a £2 card to get a pound for the trolley (no cash back anymore ???), and I've won £5. The doors have opened up for me now. Brainstorming what to spend it on!😆

Someone posted a link yesterday for a beautifully decorated house in Manchester …

What are you going to spend your winnings on? Don't forget where you come from!

Make sure you share some with family and friends

Five trolley tokens. One each for your car, your purse, the zipped pocket in your handbag you never go into, your key fob and your coat pocket.

You will never need change for the trolley again.😂

I'd invest it in a £5 scratch card...I realise this plan is somewhat flawed.

Half an entry into an Omaze draw?!

I know it's tempting to splash out and treat people on lots of lovely things, but I'd be putting that straight into pensions 😤

It's going to my head I can't lie!

Was actually thinking about getting one of those haha. Someone at Tesco gave me one for free and I lost it so never bothered. I have terrible memory and always lose everything!

Stealth brag. Not a good look @confusedlady10 Shame on you. Some people have nothing, and you brag about your lottery win.

Vile and grim. That's what you are. VILE and GRIM!

😂 Seriously, good on ya. Hopefully you win another fiver soon, then you can pool your winnings, and buy half a pound of Lurpak! 😆

Have you thought about the tax implications? What about setting up a trust?

Not necessarily! I know someone who bought a scratch card some years ago, won £10 and decided to buy 10 lottery tickets (back when they were £1) and the won nearly 2 million. 😲

Congratulations.

£2 scratch card and some chocolate.

Are you going to continue working?

Yawn

Bonus £5! Treat yourself to some food you normally wouldn't buy, like posh chocolate.

Lucky duck!

🤣🤣

I like it

What about £2 on another ticket and £3 on a Krispy Kreme?

You get trolly tokens free at Lidl. Now OP will have to rack her brains for other things to splurge on.

Was just about to say similar, stay humble OP.

I don’t know why I opened the thread because just reading it made me feel sick. Then I read it and I feel a bit better tbh, if I’m poor and miserable everyone else should be too.

You can afford to spend £2 on a scratch card????? Do you realise how insensitive that is to all of those who cant afford food. You are now obliged to spend your winnings on donations for the food bank.

We do that sometimes with £1 scratchcards and ended up with £20 from £2.
But also with £0.
Once we run on £2 for 2 weeks like that😂
