Best thing you've ever won

Coming third in the British Field Target Masters in 2003.

That day I beat several former British, Worlds, and European Champions. I was in a sudden death shoot-off with the reigning (at the time) world champ. That was for second place. My mate won it outright by hitting every target. Me and the World champ had missed just one.

All I got was a nice pewter trophy. It was the respect that was priceless though.
 
About 4 weeks ago now, I won something quite substantial :)

School guitar competition thing, prizes (guitars) had been donated by various people, and were to be awarded to the best improved student (who took guitar lessons) So me (Lead Guitar, been playing for 2 and a half years) and my brother (Bass Guitar, been playing for 9 months) entered with 'Sweet Child O' Mine' and it turned out that we both won. I won a Hofner Club Contemporary series (think thats what it's called) Its semi-acoustic, and worth £500, beautiful guitar. My brother won one of the Hofner Comtemporary Violin basses (like the one Paul McCartney plays) also worth £500.

We were rather thrilled...

Only thing I've ever won really, but it was a rather good night... :p
 
This one is fairly easy for me to pick, best thing I ever won was 5 numbers and the bonus ball on the lottery. Was 8 years ago now, and sadly the money has virtually all gone, but nevertheless it stands head and shoulders above my next best win, which was an encyclopedia in a book competition at junior school :D
 
I forgot this one. I went on the Sooty and Sweep show many years ago and they used to get children out of the audience to play a game. I was chosen and won the game and chose a Soo puppet for my prize as I already had Sooty and Sweep.
 
I got this come through the post today, a prize from the M&Ms :D

When me and my brother were 10 we went to Old Trafford with my dad to watch Man U v Ajax and some random dude from a magazine was taking pictures of every one! 2 weeks later i went into the local paper shop, looked in Four Four Two and there was a pic of me and my brother with a caption saying "Is This You?" so we phoned the number up and got about £200 each of Man u gear! Shame i support Arsenal though :D
 
The mrs enters lots and i mean lots of competitions on the moneysavingexpert forums.

Items won include: Ipod, 2x weekend tickets to download 2008
 
Hmmmmmm.

Ignoring money won on Football bets, fantasy football etc there isn't much. I won a Dry Blackthorn t-shirt as part of some weird scratchcard quiz thing back in 1998. The neck was really small for some reason though so it had to be stretched over my head :/

Obviously I'm assuming we are talking more in terms of prizes that have been won, rather than titles/competitions etc.
 
I won a cd player and some tamagochi thing when appearing on the very short lived gameshow Animal Fanatics.....:D

The disappointing thing was the successful kids from my school the next year got to be contestants on Fun House.......:mad:
