    Nice GA! 

    I got my first £50 prize (just had £25's before) on £26k holding eligible for December's draw.

    £25 win on just shy of £24k. First win since August.

    Average holding over January to December: £17760
    Total winnings £100
    Equivalent average monthly income: £8.33
    Average return 0.56%

    So, I'm doing worse than average.

  • I still get excited doing the reveal in the Prize App but nada for me on £30k for 2nd month on the trot. I keep tabs on my parents (both maxed out) and they got 4x£25

    2 x £25 for me on a mere £6,800 holding! First time I have ever won more than one prize in a month.

    Three months on the trot of prizes now- I’ve had 1 x £25 in October and November as well as June. 

    Makes £125 for the year on a slightly fluctuating balance but usually around the £7k mark, so I’m well ahead of the game. 

    Topped up my holding at the end of November but no doubt the randomness will give me a long dry spell now…

    Zilch for me on £42200.  :'(
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.

    My wife got nothing on 50k.

    I got 7x £25 on 50k, a total of £175. The most number of prizes I've ever won in a month, just wish they were bigger! 
  • Big fat ‘0’ for me on 40k holding,

    my last £25 win was in August 21. So 4 month not even a single win. Is it bad luck ?

    Nothing for me this month on a full holding but not had many barren months so was due one I suppose.
