    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Combo Breaker I won, I won, I won!
    Last year I was lucky enough to win a week self catering in France courtesy of AlFresco/The Mirror, along with £500 towards travel.
    Also I've won several UK hotel breaks, the best one being at Chewton Glen (v.nice).
    Good luck all you compers.

    I won a short luxury caravan break in Newquay with private hot tub which was lovely but cost us quite a lot as was self-catering and a 5 hour drive away. The accommodation was worth around £500. Other than that, nothing more than a couple of overnight stays in hotels for me.

    Really hoping to win a family holiday for myself, my fianc! and our two children next year or a honeymoon/minimoon as we get married next August.

    Some amazing holiday wins here!!

    Last year I won a £1000 holiday card and chose to spend it on flights to Dubai for my daughter and I to go and see my step son. We absolutely adored Dubai and would love to go back.

    This year I won flights and 3 nights in NYC, I've been before but it was my daughter's first visit and we had a great time.

    We were super happy to win both holidays as we wouldn't have had one otherwise, definitely the best hobby ever!

    3 night trip to Ronda in Spain to be driven round the Ascari racetrack in a Maserati by Michael Schumacher (value - I was offered £5k by a friend to bump my wife and let him go instead but I declined. Throw in 5* hotel and Michelin* dining and it has to be priceless! MS informed me that he'd driven less than 30 members of the public, so in an elite club!

    Florence trip (£1500)

    St. Andrews trip (£500)

    Glasgow trip (£500)
