I Won a Prize for My Daughter

There was a competition prize draw on here in the summer which was held by our local area council and it was if I remember rightly for people under 23. As my daughter is 22 I entered it in her name.
Well, today she received £50 in Love to Shop vouchers and is delighted. This is specially so because she has been out of work for a long time and has no money. I gave her £10 two days ago to buy something from the new George at asda that has opened here but she could not justify spending it and she kept it to pay for transport to a job interview. She hears tomorrow if she got the job or not and if she gets it then I will be taking her to our nearest large shopping centre to buy some new work clothes. Otherwise she will probably hang on to them for a while but she will get some new clothes. So that is why I am very very grateful to the person that posted that competition.
