Well after 6mths of nothing I was about to to cash them in when Ernie has come good with 3 separate bonds winning adding up to £175 that’s never happened before. All reinvested.
How did everyone do?

I swear I put February I’ll ask HQ to change it.

£100 this month, £75 last month. All gratefully received!😃

DanniRae Sat 03-Feb-24 08:01:23

£225 this month! Very happy with that smile

Ernie, bless him, seems to have forgotten I exist. It's several years since I had a win. hmm

Luckygirl3 Sat 03-Feb-24 08:25:17

£175 this time. I looked back on wins for last 12 months and, taking account of the fact that they are tax free, I have made nearly £2,000. Happy with that.

Parsley3 Sat 03-Feb-24 08:40:43

£270 for the Parsleys this month.

£175 after £200 last month I was pleasantly surprised.

Largolass Sat 03-Feb-24 09:11:06

Pleasantly surprised to win £275 this month and £200 for my OH

Grannynannywanny Sat 03-Feb-24 09:26:57

Still nothing since my one and only win in 1995.

Same here Aldom grin

£75 for me this month .Like Luckygirl3 I'm also happy with just over £2000 last year.
Anticipation is also part of the pleasure.
Hairdressers and then a trip to M and S for a new jumper.

I won £200 this month-that is the most I have ever won. It is ploughed back in. I expected zilch because I have won something each month for a while.

tanith ye of little faith!

Won £200 this month - don’t think I have won anything for a while

Auntieflo Wed 14-Feb-24 19:44:07

I won £1175.00 this month. The most I have ever won.
Very nice, thank you Ernie!

Primrose53 Wed 14-Feb-24 19:54:51

I won £125 and husband won £400 this month. I treated us all to lunch on Sunday.

dustyangel Wed 14-Feb-24 21:23:58

Only £50, but that is a big improvement on the nothing it’s been for the last two or three years!

Maggiemaybe Wed 14-Feb-24 22:18:50

3 x £100 for me this month. And the three winning bond numbers were all within 13,000 of each other.

I looked it up and there are over 122 billion bonds in circulation!

Charleygirl5 Wed 14-Feb-24 23:27:16

Auntieflo you are the only person I "know" who has won anything over £500. That was a fabulous win.

Auntieflo Thu 15-Feb-24 11:59:45

Thank you Charleygirl, it was.
I was so surprised, I had to check it again!
Our DD is usually the one to be lucky in this family.
Mind you, our DS1 has had a Premium since birth, when my parents bought him one. I think it is one of the old £1.00 ones, and the year before last, he had a win, so never say never 🤗

Grannynannywanny, oh dear….. Try cashing some bonds and buying some new ones. Sometimes a bit of a shakeup seems to get things going again.

Delila Thu 15-Feb-24 12:06:35

Not that I’m very successful either, but have fared marginally better than you 😕

tanith Thu 15-Feb-24 12:10:58

Well some nice wins this February I really ask HQ to change the title post but they haven’t bothered ☹️
