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.

To buy an ice cream on my holidays

I would add it to the amount that I am trying to save for when my beautiful old dog has to cross ‘The Rainbow Bridge”.
That’s beautiful & sad Jenny. I hope you win.
I would like to spend the £5 on probiotics as in healthy yoghurts which are normally a bit on the expensive side to buy too often.
I would put it towards new school uniform for September x
The biggest bar of chocolate I could find 🙂 and then share it with my family 🙂
Just be nice to receive something and restore a bit of faith in humanity rather than constantly just trying to keep afloat.
That would get me a few packs of Aldi’s Mamia nappies.
I would love to treat myself to a trip to the cinema, not been for many years, and my daughter has told me that it now costs only £ 4.99 at our local venue. £5 would just cover that nicely.
