MONEY GIVEAWAY: Get Your Hands on Some Free Money
Vicky Parry
18th Jul 2023
Money Giveaway: The cost of living crisis is really getting people down now. With a record number of people taking on second jobs and people frantically googling ‘quick ways to make cash’, we at MoneyMagpie have again decided to put our hand in our pocket and offer some help to readers.
Last year we offered you all a chance to get your hands on a no strings attached free £5 and over 300 of you entered.
Therefore we are again offering 20 readers £5. There are no strings attached at all. Simply comment on the article with what you would spend the fiver on, and then in two weeks, 20 people will be selected to win the money.
MoneyMagpie founder Jasmine Birtles says: ‘It really doesn’t feel much in the greater scheme of things, but if it helps a few people then we are more than happy to step in. We have had a record number of people writing in and asking us how to access quick cash, and in reality there aren’t many ways that are safe to the consumer. Therefore we just wanted to offer them a chance. We are strongly against gambling so didn’t want our readers to go there, therefore it’s simply cash.’
So, as stated above, for your chance to get your hands on a fiver, just answer ‘what would you spend an extra fiver on this month?’ in the comments below. The comments will close at midnight on August 1, 2023.
We will notify the winners on August 2, 2023.
Good luck. We look forward to hearing your answers.
I would open a Savings Account just for money received from Money Magpie ideas. At the end of a year I will see how much I have saved plus interest.
I would buy fruit and veg with it as it’s food that’s good for me but also food that I love as well.
I would treat myself to a couple of house and home magazines as I stopped buying them now.
I would add it to my Christmas Fund
I’d put it towards a weekly shop, nothing fancy just to help keep getting the basics in.
Saving up for a slow cooker to save some money on cooking, so would put it towards this.
I would spend it on getting some ingredients for a lovely dinner
I would spend the £5 on food.
I would treat my Mum to a bunch of flowers
Congratulations, Jackie, you’re one of our lucky winners. Please can you reply with your email address and we will email you about your prize.
