  • I won a four day trip to San Diego, with Comic Con tickets from this site. We were able to extend our stay to 7 days by just adding on our own hotel for the extra days (the flight cost didn't change so the prize company were happy to arrange a different flight back).

    It was amazing! A place we would never have gone but we loved it there.

    Thanks MSE!

    A couple of years ago I won two lovely holidays. I won a 2 night stay at Brompton Lakes in North Yorkshire with Welcome to Yorkshire. And a 3 night stay in Dublin including hotel, ferry crossing and £500 spending money with Classic FM.

    My most recent win was a week to Russia, all flights and hotels paid for (we stayed in two cities), tickets to watch ENG v BEL at the World Cup with VIP hospitality. Spending money & loads of merchandise included. What an experience!
  • Just got back from 2 night stay to an Unknown Location with Wizzair - Ended up going to Bari, Italy! Such an amazing experience :)
  • I've just had a letter to say I've won a family self catering holiday to Spain, including flights, car hire and £200 for insurance and other costs. We've been online and totted it up, and all in all it's about £2500!

    Not as exciting as some, when Alton Towers opened their new hotel (Splash landings or something like that it is called) I won a 2 day park ticket and an overnight stay in this hotel

    3 nights in Austria back in 2014. Included flights and amazing accommodation with a very special fondue meal that we needed some off road tank to get us to! Worth £2500. Thanks MSE and all you posters.
  • Nice to hear that it's actually possible. I always assumed nobody won the big prizes in competitions (which is probably overly cynical!).

    This whole sub-forum is full of winners (big and small), this thread is just a very very small part of that.
