    Received an e-mail notification today telling me I’d won. Logged on and no online notification, no winning bond no and no new bonds. Rechecked the email to find my mother had won €75 - her emails are redirected to me !! At least there was a win in the family I suppose !

    €50k went to Dublin, along with 10 of the 20 €1k prizes.

    €75 here yesterday, Encashed some more last weekend for my buddies in Revenue. The last time I encashed some a month ago I also had a win in the next draw. Maybe I should cash some out more often.

    €75 for me today



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 218 ✭✭Mormegil


    Double win today (first one ever) 2 x €75.

    Wins from batches from 2019 (3rd win from this €5000 batch) and 2023 (first win from this €5000).

    6 wins so far this year on a current total of €65,000.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 24,506 ✭✭✭✭dxhound2005


    2 x €75 today, prevented October becoming the first calendar month since January 2024 without a win. And put an end to my worst winless streak since the €75 prizes started 2 years ago. Previous win was 05 September. My MC927 bonds have been lucky so far this year, 3 x €75. And I noticed that my winner today was consecutive to another winner at the end of 2024.

    Draw Date Winning Bond Number(s) Win Value

    27/12/2024 MC927889€75.00

    31/10/2025 MC927890€75.00

    €50K to Kildare last week and this week.

    October count, the same 11 million bonds BJB to BJL in each of the 5 draws. Not counting €1K won by BJG 03 October.

    Friday 03. 117 prizes. Highest BJL 16. Lowest BJ1 8.

    Friday 10. 134. BJB, BJD, BJH & BJL 15 each. BJJ 7.

    Friday 17. 159. BJG 19. BJL 10.

    Friday 24. 140. BJF 17. BJG 9.

    Friday 31. 142. BJC 21. BJF 7.

    Highest overall BJK 73 (11,14,18,12,18). Lowest BJI 55 (8,13,12,11,11).

    Starting BJB. 70,62,57,71,63,62,70,55,65,73,64, average 62.91.

    55 million bonds won 692 prizes, average per million 12.582. x 52 x €75 = €49,069.09. Divided by 62.5 to get what €100K would win in a year with the same luck = €785.11. Nearest to 10 x €75.

    Next draw will be the second anniversary of my one and only win on 5k. Hoping for better on Monday for my UK Premium Bonds - only once in 18 months have I not got a win (often 4) on £50k.

    Wake me up when it's all over.
