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 have to send this to greece to help with the wildlife in these awful fires
To put towards daily essentials like fruit, bread, yogurt and a treat for my kids x
A book I’ve had in my basket on amazon for a while.
Ticket for a Cancer Charity concert being held in my village
I’d put it on my electric meter as I’m in emergency credit xx
My youngest Rosie-Mo has Down Syndrome, not a sob story, she is amazing and I wouldn’t change a hair on her head!
However, its also very expensive taking her to her appointments as she also has hypotonia and needs her hips checked as one of them is a little shallow…(wibbly!) due to her low muscle tone.
A fiver would actually be a big help next week when we have three appointments and the costs add up!
Thank you! x
Grandchildren savings
I’d spend it on some flowers for a friend who is battling cancer
I would buy extra Cat Food as Momma Cat gave Birth to 5 Kittens last month. That’s a total of 7 Cats to feed as I have a Tom Cat too!
