  • Because the This Morning competition is closing soon just thought I would start a thread where we call all dream about what we would spend our winnings on, if of course someone from MSE won. I'll go first:

    1 - I would become debt free £30,00
    2 - Gifts for friends and family £5,000
    3 -Lots of hols :o
    4 - Deposit for house

    And of course some treats for me and OH :j

    Just need to win now hehe

    What would everyone else do? :rolleyes:

    Almost exactly that!!!!! :D

    I would buy my hubby a boob job....well he keeps saying he likes big boobs & i'm happy with my peaches so he can have one! :D
    Then I would treat kids to a holiday, myself to some refesher driving lessons & a car (like Jaquie said). But first off I would change my bank after the money has gone in seeing as my bank refused an overdraft!
    If I won a hundred grand,
    I'd find the OP and shake their hand! :rotfl:
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    I would share mine with husband (obviously ) Daughter and two Sons to make sure they all have a nice little nest egg and a bit of security.
  • I would give my OH enough money to do up his house (its in a state)
    Buy a nice car, or lease one as they lose sooo much money, a BMW 6 series soft top will do nicely.
    Give some to mum and dad, put some in savings for little brothers and sisters. Give my auntie and uncle some as they are in bad financial situation at the moment.
    Go on an amazing Christmas holiday shopping trip to NYC with an empty suitcase x x x
    Wouldnt that be nice!!! :drool:

    I would give my 3 sons enough for a deposit on a house, 2 are trying to get on the property ladder and can't and now middle son day has learnt hes being made redundant in January, so his wedding next year would not have to be postponed... I could pay for it in full.
    If only dreams could come true.....:A
