Nice one, lovely! It's well deserved whatever it is! :j:j

I'm also pleased to be able to post a 50 Challenges comping update for August: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/comment/72935199#Comment_72935199

I've now marked off 29 of 50 challenges so far :dance: The higher value wins still elude me but I don't care

As I'm off the mark for the August challenge (£25 worth) then I'll predict £50, only cos I'm already half the way there! :rotfl:

early yesterday I got a phone call let me know, I had won 4 vip tickets to concert last night tickets cost £71 each

me and couple of friends went we had a great time, whlie i was waiting for them got talking to a guy who was looking for a ticket, he was only wanting to see one band I said I had spare ticket he could have he asked how much i wanted for it

I point out it hadn't cost me any thing, at the box office there was charity box so he put some money in that for ticket
I was just glad I could help as the ticket would gone to waste, my good deed for the day


I go for £500 in my August challenge

That was very nice of you :T

It was very short notice to see a concert though :eek:

they always seem only to give you few hours notice these days when you won tickets to concert.

lucky it was my night off work or I wouldn't been able to go, there would been two spare tickets

because ours were VIP we had or own area to stand outside on raised platform and we had or own bar inside which had big screen so you could watch concert there if it start to rain

most of all we had normal toilets didn't have to use port loos there was only about 40 people in VIP part

There is a competition here https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5689797 with 2000 prizes. So hopefully a few of us might win that and cross of August (although it won't much help my August plan to win prizes worth £500).

that was lovely of you, and good of him to put some money in the charity box. We are a family of 3 so usually have a spare ticket or place on family ticket wins but when I've offered them to people they tend to look at me like I've just admitted to killing kittens or something x
