    I'd take my mum & dad out for a meal to thank them for all their help recently.

    They are so good to me & my husband, can't do enough for us, so it would be nice to do something nice for them

    I'd add it to one of my savings accounts, towards either buying my first house or replacing my 16-year-old car (perhaps split it between the two).

    Because things are tight my family are in the same situation too so that's why I would spend it on something nice for Christmas for them if I could, but need to pay bills

    It's the Gas & Electric bills we all struggle with

    A £100 windfall, no strings? £90 to the creditcard as that's the most expensive debt, & £10 towards a fish & chip supper for the family.
    Things are tight (and self-inflicted, ahem) but no strings means the family can have a bit of fun too.

    because I am single, live alone, work cut my hours to 30 and it would be he only sensible option. I can barely afford to live each week so couldn't waste such a lot of money on treats right now.
