When you win the lottery

I don't have any underwear I'm ashamed of, so for me it would be a new car as mine although in great condition it's 15years old so due for replacement.

I think you should do the shopping first, Lizbethann55, before you bin your old ones.

I can't think of anything of the top of my head - I'm sure I will though if I give it a bit of thought....

A whole wall,of books followed by a whole rack of handbags! Sorry it’s my one full weakness!!!

"Maggiemaybe* that is a very good point and one I hadn't considered! I just know that would be the very trip when the bus finally got me!!???????????‍♀️?‍♀️?‍♀️

A whole wall of books for me too Harris and a new tablet.

I think the advice if you win loads of money is to buy something relatively small but a luxury you’d not normally buy yourself. A drawer full of individual knickers sounds a good place to start.
I’m having some hand dyed mohair from the borders and the jumper (about £100) and the jumper pattern to knit it.

I'd like to book myself a week away somewhere so I could think.

Just a guest house or something, by the sea.
What a lovely thought. Particularly as I don't do the lottery.

I can’t think of anything, perhaps my husband had better stop doing it! Or perhaps he has plans?

Knickers ?

Two weeks at Champneys or similar health 'farm'. Then a complete refurbishment of my wardrobe. Setting up a family trust for my AC, DGC and any future GGC. Property for all and invest in my future care. Donations to my favourite charities,
All that, of course, presupposes a win on the Euro Lottery!

well im winning the lottery gradually, won thirty pounds on 'set for life' twice in recent weeks and had several £3 wins and the odd fiver. lol!

You're obviously in line for "the big one" next.

A blinking massive bottle of Channel No 5.

I’ve thought of something! A smart TV, with a biggish screen. So whenever a text or an email comes through in the middle of a drama, we can read it. We might be able to follow the plots then.

Definitely the books! No handbags for me Harris but shoes are a different matter!

New car and an iPad and a new house with a bigger kitchen and more than one bathroom.

One of those handbags I look at then say 'how much!????' before walking away muttering about the madness of people who have, as my mother would say 'more money than sense'.

A sports car!!!

I'd have a new kitchen, the whole house redecorated, furnished and carpeted, and then have the garden professionally landscaped.

Oh yes a whole drawer full of matching knickers and bras, no doubt DH would love that too. Next would be expensive candles, and lovely face creams.
I would also love a 24 hour carer for my mum, so I could sleep at night and have relaxing holidays. Good luck everyone.

Agree! Brilliant idea. Not sure I’d even tell anyone until I’d got my head clear.

I'd like to have my bras and pants made to measure. Lots of lacy but comfortable undies. Sounds divine.

Can’t think of anything small? Am sure there must be something. I did read recently (article by a guy who looks after new lottery winners) that winning the lottery doesn’t change your money ‘personality’. I.e. if you’re careful now you’ll still be careful. And vice versa. As said above - I’d look at something overpriced and say “how much” and put it back ?.

I'd probably replace this ancient laptop...
