Nothing again on max holdings, that's £25 in four months now, I was in it just for a bit of fun, but now wishing I hadn't bothered...one more month!

Got £25 this month, same as last month. Two previous months were £0.
On full holding. (going by the odds you should win £25, 4 out of 5 months on the full holding.

I've been looking at the odds, and if done in the right way a savings account (2.33%Gross - 1.864net) with the interest (Minus what you expect to get in £25 PB Prizes) spent on lottery tickets can give you better odds at winning a large prize. I can post the full odds on a new thread if you want a look.

This was my last month giving the government a cheap loan.

yer that would be good lets see how the numbers match up please cause it will probably be the same for everyone even with full holdings or minimal holding.

This is the post that should tell all and sundry who hold p.b's to sell up. You are holding an investment that is basicically depreciating fast and giving you minimal returns. I strongly considered buying 30k's worth last year until I read Martin's article.

just won 25 quid this month, making 75 quid this year (2% return) and around 250 quid last year.
no longer investing tho, putting money in shares instead, currently at 20% return
