€25k invested in prize bonds

pbwinner

Hiya,
Thought I'd update this thread on the success (or not) of €25k (yes, €25,000) I invested in PBs since February.

Purpose of this thread is to give some indication of the success rate of PBs for the ordinary punter as I assume €25k is large amount to invest in one go.

Planning to keep it in there for a year or so.

Winnings to date: €25

From the website:
Due to the Red Weather Alert from Thursday afternoon 1st March to midday Friday the 2nd March , the Prize Bond draw which was to have taken place on the morning of Friday 2nd March will now take place on Monday 5th of March .

I thought it may have ''lucky Monday'' after all the unlucky Fridays since September 2017, no chance, the long cold chilly winter continues without cheer from PBs, nothing today, last win 22nd September 2017.

Another €50 win for me today.

(I had 2 X €50 wins in the previous draw on 23rd Feb 2018).

That'll be that now until mid 2018 knowing my luck!

The Monday draw has brought some luck. €50 win on my €20k batch. Very poor return on €20k all the same over that time period.

Lucky Monday for me too - €50 today from the same very large batch that won a €50 last week.:):):):)

Sorry for the delay in my usual posting but I'm away at the moment, anyhow
If my figures are correct it would appear the PB fund is now about 3,208,800,000 Euro as of the end of February 18,
Which means at the moment there are about 513,408,000 bonds.

I would estimate that on average there was a net increase in the PB fund of 951,219 Euro for each working day during January and February

nothing for me either this month, its more for the craic and suspense of checking my bonds than winning anything at this stage.

over the water in premium bond land, someone who only bought £7k worth of bonds 'this' January , has just won a million quid this Month

No St Patrick's Day luck for me either ...:(:(:(

Sligo Quay

Absolutely nothing this week, last win 22nd September 2017 €50 euro.
Infact I'm having better luck on the National Lottery Daily Million, today I won €100 euro on a €1.50 quick pick, 2 weeks ago I won €50 euro on a €1.50 quick pick, my €60,000 worth of PBs are pretty useless at the moment.

Well done - at least you have something to cheer you!

Cork Lass

Zilch again this week

dosebier

nada for me too,
granted i have a just a fraction of some of the holdings on the forum, but its seems a barren week for everyone so far.
