£75 on full holdings. Happy with that!

@stingofthebutterfly

Haven't won anything since September but very pleased to wake up to one £25 and one £500 win this morning.
A £500 win is lovely!
Ilovefluffysheep · 05/01/2022 11:47

zero on full holdings for me and £30k for husband. First time in a while neither of us have won anything.

torthecatlady · 05/01/2022 11:47

2 x £25 on full holding for me

Saisong · 05/01/2022 12:01

So happy today, I got 3 x £75 from about 25k. This is my first win despite having a steadily increasing holding since last Feb. Had just started to give up hope.

Saisong · 05/01/2022 12:02

Sorry that's 3 x £25 making £75 in total - I'm just too excited!!

Bushkin · 05/01/2022 13:59

Zero on £75k between the 2 of us here

aromarona · 05/01/2022 14:29

I got £25, for the third month running, on £10k!

DH got nothing, for the third month running, on £15k! Shock

wizzler · 05/01/2022 16:45

£50 on £42k. Better than the last 2 months when we got nowt!

ivegotthisyeah · 05/01/2022 16:49

My son got £25 on a £300 ish holding! 🥳

cptartapp · 05/01/2022 16:55

£25 on £15k, same as DH. One of us wins most months.
Still not topped my £1k win last year.

Botanica · 05/01/2022 17:21

2 x £25 on full holding.
Typical return most months.

@Billandben444

As interest rates creep up on things like fixed-rate bonds, PB aren't as good an investment as they used to be particularly now the prize fund is smaller. I keep my bonds because the thought of a bigger win is so exciting and because it's easy to cash them in if you need the money but getting the balance right between sensible investing and the dream of more sparkle is the secret! Have we ever had anyone on here who posted about a 50k or even a 100k win?
I think the most was £1000 Over the years

Glad we have a full winner who don’t have £50k

Gives me hope

Over the year I don’t seem to do badly but would like more 😂

Yes think you are our highest winner @cptartapp

Nada. Unreasonably disappointed as I think we're probably now doing averagely well, but I always get my hopes up!

confusedlots · 05/01/2022 19:43

£25 each for 3 out of 4 of us, not a bad start to the year!

DarlingCoffee · 05/01/2022 20:00

£100 on full holding which was lovely news!

Clickncollect · 05/01/2022 21:27

£25 on full holdings - better than nowt!

bettertocryinamercedes · 05/01/2022 21:29

£25 for me - I'm winning less and less as I did have full holdings but down to 20k now - using it for house build.

Used to win £100 or £50 every month.

Cottagepieandpeas · 05/01/2022 21:47

£0 Not won anything since I started in June (£5k)

Trekkerbabe · 05/01/2022 21:52

Big fat nothing on £70k here. Boo.

BlueGlasses · 05/01/2022 22:08

Was over the moon to win £525 this month, bringing my winnings to £700 since last April on £30,500 holdings.

SB1971 · 05/01/2022 22:10

Nothing on full holdings for me and £10k for DH. Seems more annoying this month somehow- am going to have a look about and look to lock an amount away to get a higher rate.
