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.

Some lottery tickets to try and ‘grow’ the gift..
As it is summer the delicious summer coffees are hitting the shops so I’d treat myself to a caramel frappe and sip it in the sunshine!! Doesn’t get more summery than that – and I might, might, even have a bit of change!
put it towards a child gift at the not funded refuge i support
It would towards the shopping.
I would buy my wife of 50 years a bunch of flowers to remind her how much she is still loved
I could use the fiver to buy a small plant or a bouquet of flowers to add some beauty to my living space.
Greggs breakfast roll and coffee before I have to drag myself into the office.
I would spend it on craft bits for those rainy days.
Hi. I would put the extra fiver towards the snacks portion of our planned family mini day out to see the Dinosaurs with my sister, daughter, friends and grandchildren.
