    My best win was a VIP trip to Cannes Film Festival. It was only for the one night.

    Me too, in May 2011, but it was 2 nights full board stay at the five star Carlton hotel & a continuous supply of Stella Artois :*)
  • Best win was £250 Selfridges vouchers, £200 Boots vouchers and a years free toothpaste :o
    It came just before Christmas and as i was out of work at that time, it made the whole period less stressful :j
    (stylist win)
    The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter :(

    My best win (both monetary and just a great prize) was a bunch of flowers ever month for a year. I have just received my latest bunch, gorgeous lilies in yellow, orange and pink, and have 3 bunches left to receive.

    I love that I get a bunch each month as it feels like a win every month and is something to look forward to, and not something I would buy for myself.

    Although I had to admit to the postman that I'd won them as he thought I had a secret admirer!

    Hard to say but mine is probably a 2 week holiday to Orlando for 4 which we took in Feb this year..not the holiday itself as we visit a lot (although it was lovely...premium econ flights etc) but we got a private VIP tour of Kennedy Space station with astronaut Charles Duke who walked on the moon. It was a fab day and one that money truly couldn't buy.
    We also had all the theme park tickets included but as we visit Orlando 3 or 4 times a year we have annual passes so I sold the tickets for around £1800 which was our spending money :)

    My ITV win of £7000 a couple of months ago, still in shock :eek:

    Night at the Pelham Hotel in Kensington, London in a suite which was £600 per night, we got afternoon tea and breakfast included :eek:

    Night at the English National Opera in a private box (felt like those two out of the Muppet Show) night in a posh hotel and meal at a restaurant

    I can't decide between those, they were all such amazing prizes :D

  • 5k cash is the biggest, my first big win and equally exciting was a week's all inclusive holiday at the Dalaman Hilton.It is a huge resort hotel next to the beach with massive swimming pools and hardly dropped under 90F for the week.It's hard to imagine having a better weeks holiday than that was.
  • I've not one anything in the comps so far but I was asked to marry the man of my dreams on 1st June so i class that as a jackpot win!!
    August = Nowt, Sept = Zilch, Oct = Not a sniff, Nov = Fingers still crossed :)

    Congratulations on your engagement Tarabombara! :)

    My best win was an iPad, Xbox 360, £250 Blinkbox vouchers and £500 Sainsbury's vouchers in a radio comp. I would never have even entered if I realised it was an on-air one, but I was brave and won so it paid off despite the nerves! :j
