What's Your Biggest WIN !!!???
Comments
-
EASILY the £2000 worth of Bosch products won recently - I still can't quite believe it. It was actually quite hard to choose stuff to the value of such a large amount.
I've been doing this (about 45 mins a day) since May & have won on average 2 things per month since - so it DOES work! I'd not won anything ever before.
So far since May - Bon Jovi stadium tickets (given to a girl I know with permission of the promoters - she was so happy it was as good as winning), Amazon vouchers, Lovebox Festival tickets for all 3 days, the Bosch products, Denby kitchen set, Funeral Party/Wild Palms exclusive performance in Gola shop in Carnaby St (with free beer all night!), Argos £500 voucher, women's UEFA Champs league final tickets.. Long may it continue!0 -
my biggest win was the festival tickets to Melt!, flights, transfers and £100 worth of Bench clothing... caused a bit of stress as we only found out 2 weeks before but it was all good and a great trip!

I only started entering competitions at the beginning of July and within 2 weeks I'd won a trip to London, I'd never been to Loondon before and I was so excited.
It was a trip for four, so along with hubby, took one of our sons and future daughter in law. We had 2 rooms in a 5* hotel worth over £400 each, £600 spending money, VIP entry to a nightclub with champagne and a £200 bar tab, then full body massages each the next day. (though don't think they realise that nightclubs & a 8 am massage shouldn't go together! :rotfl:)
Was brilliant we stayed an extra night (in a travellodge at £35 per room
) and went to see a show. It was brilliant just ran out of sight seeing time! But The British Museum & Betty Blue Eyes where FAB!
Been great reading everyones posts. Some life changing wins out there! Thanks OP for the idea.
Good Luck to all compers on MSE :dance:[FONT="]"Isn't it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it yet?" - Lucy Maud Montgomery :hello:[/FONT]

It depends how you define "big", really - physical size, monetary worth or personal value.
In terms of scale: I'd missed an e-mail notifying me of its delivery, so was incredibly surprised when the biggest box I've ever seen was delivered by courier. Inside was a collection of kitchen gadgets and a dining set, totalling well over £500. I nearly fainted from the shock! Two years ago, I also received a slightly smaller cardboard box full of packets of Huggies baby wipes, which have came in so useful and are still nowhere near done. Never having to worry about buying wipes - imagine!
In terms of value, I guess my iPod Nano is my "biggest", alongside the dining set. Also won some useful giftcards - £100 for Build-a-Bear, £50 for Debenhams. And one time I won some concert tickets I sadly couldn't go to but the company had sent out anyway. I ended up selling them for around £500 (and nearly fainted again!).
I've won lots of incredibly useful smaller prizes - always when I need them most, I've noticed! E.g. I've won designer jeans when mine were falling to bits, a Regatta rucksack when my usual one had actually physically burst, and fancy tweezers when I was still using the ones out a Christmas cracker (!!). And I use all those smaller prizes regularly, so they mean a lot, too. And that's not even mentioning the amount of theatre tickets I get and all the fab nights out I've had because of them!
Ooh 'eck, I've rambled a bit. But it was nice to reminisce about my past wins!
