I plan my resignation each month. It would be plenty for DH and I to retire on 🤞

It would be enough for me to ask to go down to 4 days, which would make a massive difference to my health and wellbeing. I'm just so fucking tired. Until then - on I slog.

Can't believe we're back on this thread - January felt like it went on forever, February feels like it barely started!

OneFrenchEgg · 23/02/2023 07:34

Is it a week today?

MrsDoyle351 · 23/02/2023 11:49

I think the draw is on March 1st - so results next day? Just guessing as don’t have the app

ChessieFL · 23/02/2023 12:15

App says results 2nd March.

Itsthewhitehat · 23/02/2023 13:32

I think the draw is before march first. Because agent millions, apparently, does the door step prizes the day before the first working day of the month.

Though I am not sure there’s any actual confirmation of when these things occur.

JobbieBobbie · 23/02/2023 14:04

I just work backwards from what the app says:

App date: all winners
-1 day: high value winners
-2 days: millionaires

There's a lot of conflicting info around re when the actual draw is, but I think the above is correct (barring weekends and bank hols etc.).

Puddywoodycat · 23/02/2023 20:54

@Crimsonbow it's weird I won 25 x 3 within 8 months of signing up.
And then dh also won 1 x 25.

Nothing for years now.

Sneakyblinders · 25/02/2023 08:47

I would be thrilled with £5k let alone a million!

WeAreBorg · 25/02/2023 09:58

I would honestly be thrilled with £25 I still haven’t won anything yet 😂

JamPearl · 25/02/2023 13:57

I'm hoping for £100k this month 😂

DrMadelineMaxwell · 25/02/2023 14:00

I have extra bonds in play this month after topping up a bit, so I hope that means a prize (or 2 - DH won five different prizes last month, £275 in all).

I have BIG plans for a big win. One would be renting or buying a private student flat for dd at uni. A smaller dream is a foreign holiday, only for a fortnight as we usually only stretch to a week.

Onthecuspofabreakthrough · 25/02/2023 14:06

Yeah, I won't be greedy, I don't need a million though wouldn't turn it down but 100k would make such a difference for my retirement plans and the dc's futures.

RudsyFarmer · 25/02/2023 14:18

My app is saying 5 days.

Same @WeAreBorg 🤣

Ames85 · 25/02/2023 18:00

I’d love to win a big chunk of money to pay for help with some of the health issues I have. Not to struggle so much every day would be life changing 🤞💰
£25 would be nice too 😂

Eaumyword · 25/02/2023 18:55

I'd love to win big so I could fund some healthcare for my lovely parents, who are just starting to struggle with mobility and pain.
I'd absolutely love to leave my stressy, demanding min wage job and have a holiday. Not had an abroad one in 4yrs!
And I'd love to make a bigger donation than I can currently afford to some of my fave charities. Local ones that can't afford to advertise etc.

Dyrne · 26/02/2023 05:33

Whoops.

Logged into the “main” NS&I app to check my account details, as I wanted to see how much I’d won so far this year, as the prize checker app only goes back 6(?) months.

Turns out I have £2K less than I thought I’d invested! It does make sense looking at the figures so nothing’s gone missing but I’d somehow convinced myself I’d invested more than I had!

Bit depressing 😂

Will keep my fingers tight crossed for a nice fat win for you @Eaumyword

it will be 5 prizes, £25, £25, £25, £25 and £10,000!! Grin

they always leave the big win to the last if you win multiple prizes (that's if you use the mobile App)

If you're set up for automatic reinvestment, then any monthly winnings go straight back into your PB account, so you don't need to even think about it. That's how ours is set up.

BillStickersIsInnocent · 26/02/2023 09:22

I’d love to be able to take the kids somewhere this summer, and do the kitchen, bathroom, living room..whole house really maybe we’d just move!

Good luck everyone!

MrsDoyle351 · 26/02/2023 11:49

£100k would mean I could retire properly and give my knees a rest, as they are basically screwed.

£50k would be fine - could cut back my hours a lot.

£5 -10k would mean a nice holiday - anywhere with a swimming pool.

I'm not fussy Grin

Good luck to all

Adviceneeded200 · 26/02/2023 15:03

100k deposits for the kids for a house plus a 10k luxury holiday

50k smaller deposits and a luxury holiday

10k just the luxury holiday

5k holiday (not quite so luxury should still be a lot better than we normally have)

Adviceneeded200 · 26/02/2023 15:04

Or......£25 ....and thank my lucky stars it wasnt zero!

YourUserNameMustBeAtLeast3Characters · 27/02/2023 16:43

I always revisit Rightmove this time of the month and I save the houses that I’d choose from if I won the million.

I’m sure tomorrow is the door knocking day (my house for sure, I’m in all day).
