What's the biggest prize you ever won?

mikemac1

Could lotto, raffle, anything realy.

I won an iPod on a Today FM competition where you had to phone in to guess the voice which I did. They said it was an iPod, it was actually some cheap Chinese version

Ah well, it worked fine for years and years.

I also won a hamper at a work Christmas party. Present to the parents sorted

That's it realy, never got anything much off the lotto, our lotto syndicate has gone through 6 years of failure.

Are you lucky and win lots and lots of prizes?

Seriously? thats poor form!!!

I won a day trip to Mosney once. 1988 i think.
Also got into a draw to win a car. It was down to 10 people and everyone has a key to try in the door. I was 6th person to try their key so at that stage i suppose I has a 1 in 5 chance. Didnt work

Some people win lots of things, I don't win anything. Must be some sort of a lucky gene. Or maybe they do competitions and I don't. (I did win a couple of 75s on Prize bonds, but you tend to win within the first year of investing a reasonable amount anyway)

Run family newsagents. Play minimum in most lotto draws.

Have gotten 5 numbers in the main draw twice and lotto plus 1 draw. 1300 punts, €1000 & €300 respectively. The older punts win was from my own ticket that I bought purposely. The 2 euro denominated wins were mistake tickets. Ie. they weren't what the customer asked for, the customer didn't opt to take them anyway, I put them to the side to sell on to someone else, forgot, had to buy them myself at the end of the night.

Ie I'm more lucky with mistake tickets then my own tickets.

Nowadays, when I make a mistake, I tell them my story and 9 times out of 10 they buy the mistake ticket as well as what they asked for.

Result!!

I once won €80 at work doing a derby draw. My horse won even though he wasn't tipped to win. That was a nice surprise!

Other than that, I might win a free scratch card now and then doing the All Cash.

A DVD player at the staff Christmas party when they were only just out, which was pretty cool. And a weekend away in a very nice hotel. Admittedly my wife entered and put my name on the entry, but seeing as I win bugger all I'm claiming it.
