my one and only twitter win, was supposed to be for lingerie turned out I got a G string.

Hang onto it in case there's a shoe lace shortage?

A plate from (I think) mcvities. I’d entered to win a Caribbean holiday and was beyond excited to receive a winners email - till I realised I’d win a runners up prize🤣

I won an autographed photo, to this day I have no idea who it’s of and you can’t read the name!

My worst prize was an e-book about England. What they sent me was literally an email with half a dozen facts about England pasted into it, really boring facts too such as the population and how many counties there are.

I once won a jar of ostrich pâté in a Tombola 🤢

runner up prize to a 20" portable TV ...........7 packets of dried cabbage entitled "7 day cabbage diet".  boil in water to reonstitute.  Quite disgusting.  I think I would have had more fun with the Dominic Cummings mask.

I won a Euro2020 keyring, sent to me a while after they finished in July 2021.

I've had two. 

One was from a tombola style stall at a school fete. Won a baby food jar full of what I thought was sherbert. Tipped it up into my mouth to discover it was a jar full of washing powder. 

The other I got a call from Channel 4 to say 'you've won this prize' so assumed it was big. It was a T4 lanyard (those things round your neck that hold an access pass or ID etc.).

I once won (I thought) a box of apples, I was still teaching at the time so I was looking forward to being Lady Bountiful in the playground. Turns out I misread the email, I won a box to keep an apple in!
