£25 for me. A win so I'm happy.
£100, going in the right direction ⬆️
Just £25 for me.
£100 for me! That doubles my total winning in 4 years!
£100 here
£150 for me and £125 for t'other half. That'll do for August, thanking you.
Lucky you, the more I buy the less I win.
£100 this month, £25 last month after a long lean spell
Planning to buy a load more soon as a useful tax free savings vehicle now rates are up
£100 for me, not to be sneezed at I suppose but works out at 3.8% so less than I could have got with easy access savings. Plus that's a guaranteed return of course.
£100 here too.
£50 for me
More chance of a big prize next month folks - but not THE big prize

Youngest has won 5 times in the 6 months since he bought his bonds, 5% return in that time 👍 I've probably jinxed him now 🤔
My first draw is coming up. I'm excited. It's only a matter of time before I double my money surely.
Another £25. A bonus given I'd reduced my holding to gain a guaranteed return from a savings account.
Single prize of £100 this month. Return running at around 4.8% so far. Considering it's only recently been possible to beat that with an easy access account I don't think I'm doing badly.
Back to nothing this month.
£100 for me
😎
£0 for my wife
💩
Ooh, I got four £100s, Mrs BigJohn got one £100 and three £50s.
I might nip down to Parker's the fishmonger and Tomlinson the butcher this morning to see if they've got something nice.
£125 this month. With interest rates as they are I would be getting more money each month if I put the money into my current account but then I can't win big amounts on a current account so will leave in bonds just in case.
Nought this month, live in hope it will be a big win next time around.
£50 for me
£300 for mrs Zip.
£100 for mrs zips mum.
I got more for less in Chase
£200 x 2 in the sproot house
Sword all 😕
3x £100 for Mrs BS and 2 x £50 for me.
New Bike Day for TheGingerOne I feel…
£500 between us in the INVG household. Much more fun than getting an interest payment🤠
I got more for less in Chase
At over £450 a month you’ll be doing a self assessment soon and paying interest on that*, so it’ll swing to PBS in favour.
* I think.
Two months of bog all 🥺
1 Prize = £500, nice one!
Nothing for me.
What do you use your premium bonds accounts for?
For me it’s my rainy day money and holiday/new bike budget.
Me - £50.
Mrs Lawman - 1 x £500 and 1 x £100.
There's something fishy in the state of Shropshire... given that I bought most of her bonds in the first place.
Nowt 😕
Big fat zero.
£5000 and £50 for me this month
Ooh, nice!
Well done the winners, I sold all mine having held them for years. Fixed at 6% so after basic rate tax, that's 200 net per month. I had 2 consecutive months of no wins, so that was the trigger.
May go back in, the million pound win was introduced mid 90s, it's 2.5mn in today's money.
£370 across the whole family.
£100 for me in my first ever draw.
We have to take the whole lot out next year when we remortgage so we've got 12 months to win a big one.
£700! Woo-hoo!
I thought I did well. Told my parents and mum replied telling me she won £25,200 this month 🤣
2 x £100 for us.

That's some good returns for your family!
3x£100 which is my best yet.

I thought for a moment someone was going to post about a visit from Agent Million.
