    Biggish (in relative terms) birthday in extended family recently - 3 gifts of PBs. Two of those gifts bought online so recipient is not informed who gifted them. Third set bought in post office so recipient gets a letter (under separate cover but arriving same day as the new PBs) telling him who bought them. What is the logic in that??????

    I got my first €50 win today!!

    €65,000 invested since October 2020.

    I’ll take that, Happy days.

    To follow up on lasts weeks first win, I now have my second €50 in a row.

    €65k invested, 2 wins in 6 weeks.

    Nothing for months, 50 last week and 2 x 50 this week (both from the one large batch). Good glitch to all of you.

    Just checked there and as far as I could see, the site hadn't been updated as last week's two winners appeared to be still there. Couldn't update it. Looked more carefully - it had been updated - another two €50s this week - one from the same batch that won two weeks ago! I hope this Fri 13th / pre-Christmas glitch spreads his generosity far and wide!:):):)

    Nothing for me again this week. Well done to all who got a win.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,021 ✭✭✭✭dxhound2005


    Nothing for me. After getting only 10 wins last week, which I think was the lowest ever for a county, Longford got 31 today. Looks like 3 to the same person.

    Hi dx,

    Where are you seeing the areas for winning bonds? I can't see it on the main page. TIA.


  • Registered Users Posts: 292 ✭✭carrickbawn


    What would happen in the event of a minor winning a significant amount of money.
    Would it be released to a guardian to be held until winner was of age or would it remain in State Savings until winner could claim.?

    From the map, you can do lots of research. Goes back about 6 months.

    Had to cash in my prize bonds last year when buying my home but, for sentimental reasons, I kept the ones gifted to me by my godmother. Got a nice surprise this morning when I logged on to see a 50 euro win :)

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,951 ✭✭✭John arse


    i know that this site is probably designed for people to share news of their winnings but just to create a sense of perspective ,how about sharing some experiences of bad long losing streaks(on decent amounts maybe 30k+ which should win a few times a year)just curious


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,066 ✭✭✭tuisginideach


    loads of such sharing going on - the exceptions are the good news ones.
