Can I just ask how do you know if you win? Do they send you a letter or do you need to check yourself?

Parked €25k in prize bonds today. I’ll give it a year and hopefully will get a few €50’s in the year.

The crappy new website told me I had won again this week - of course I hadn't - it was still announcing the win I had last week. Boo!:(

When I see people winning 3 times in January or winning on €25k I am a bit yeah. I wonder what the long term economic effects of there being absolutely zero reward or incentive for long term savings are going to be? Not good I fear.

€50 for me today from my March 2010 Large Medium Bunch. It was my worst performer in 2018 with only one win. €50K went to Louth, not me.

Slight oddity of the day is this three sets of winners in Donegal. Donegal also got two of the €1K prizes.

€50.00 AAK115261 Donegal
