Have you ever won anything decent?

[Mountainhowl]

Obvious one would be the lottery, but I'm also curious about things like 'make me a winner'/cash register or similar on the radio, BOTB/similar raffles/magic freebies etc

My mum once won pink concert tickets and £3000, both on the radio (separate giveaways years apart), I've never been lucky sadly 🤣

Purely being nosy, I also wonder what the average odds are for the radio, I've always thought it must be better than the lottery

I have won

Weekend Festival tickets with camping for 2
Music concert at 02 tickets for 2
Night in hotel for 2
Commerative coin
£25 recently on a raffle
Some vouchers to shop at various places

£110 and £180 on the UK lottery, £175 on the Euromillions, a £60 shop free at M&S, £17.50 payout for a 50p accumulator in 1988.

My aunt won the euromillions . About 15 years ago .

A fabulous Christmas/ fruit cake at a summer fair, made by the owners of the farm.
It was delicious.

I won a long weekend, all expenses paid to Switzerland, on here.

I won a Kindle on here about 14 years ago when they were still fairly newish.

Festival tickets 3 separate times, a huge, fancy Easter egg when I was a kid, a signed book and also £500 on playing the Irish lottery, my first ever try when I was 16.

My husband recently won a Rolex 😂

A new roof. (Paid for with my share of the work's lottery syndicate's win).

competitions is my hobby, been doing it about 20 years

all free via specific websites so its only 2-3 mouse clicks and your in

in a evening(laptops on my lap while i watch tv)i can do hundreds,
trouble is i do so many i cant remember entering them and some are 8-12 months in advance
twin that with my ADHD brain and when i do win its a surprise as i forgot entering that one
i enter so many i could never keep track

so many companies dont let you know either so i only know when it turns up, very rare its accompanied by a letter

women's magazines and any magazine that has a puzzle, wordsearch etc are all provided by users so its just copy and paste and your in
any answers needed is provided as well

i use 3 websites but there's thousand free if you just google it and have 2 email accounts so any competition is entered twice

ive won thousands over the years and i win constantly

yesterday was my last win a 4 ft bubble tube fish cylinder thing
my biggest win was 6 years ago and a all inclusive 5 star holiday for 4 to Spain

i enter it even if i don't want it, it gets sold or given away

i won a years worth of cider in feb 2020, it was 48 cans a month
im teetotal, my dad had a good year and is not a big drinker so even today theres so many in their spare room

Yes, tickets to the 2012 Olympic opening ceremony, hotel and £300 spendies !!

And last month I won 2 instagram competitions, both for hair products - one lot worth £75 and the other £50

1k on a big xmas raffle 16 years ago at my then local . I brought 2 strips of tickets at 50p each. Won a tin of biscuits thought brilliant got my moneys worth. Then the 1k cheque! £1 well spend.

. Also tickets to a musical 2 years ago on the radio

My DS won a car. It was a draw in a show so pure luck. I did once win a Christmas cake, you had to guess the weight. It wasn't cooked in the middle!

The most I've won is £150 on Premium Bonds.

I've won a dyson vacuum at a raffle and a fold-up bike from the radio.

Husband won a motorbike in a charity raffle.

I won £4.50 last Friday on Euromillions... although a house smaller than mine recently sold for half a million!

I would have preferred the memories rather than useless display cabinet items.

I won Sandals holiday to Antigua on Magic 105.4fm many years ago :)

A hairdryer. I was only about ten so it was a huge deal! Won it through Bunty comic 😂.
