We give you the Top 5 ways not to spend £100 should you win that by playing Winner Stays On.
A few weeks ago we looked at the Top Five things one could do with the £100 won courtesy of "staying on" for five weeks in a row.
This week we'll be looking at the Top Five things not to do with £100 should you be skilful, knowledgeable and let's face it - lucky enough - to win WSO five times.
1) Go for a night out in London's West End. It sucks. You'll find a few good restaurants if you look hard enough but there are better places to eat in London such as Edgware Road (Turkish), Aldgate East (Indian), Stockwell (Portuguese) or the cardboard factory in Harrow (English). Once you've been turned away from a few nightclubs for wearing jeans that were from last season's collection or charged £8 for a pint from the one dive club that did allow you in (The Sound Bar where they even let Jodie Marsh in) you're ready for home. But oh, the Underground has stopped working so a taxi it is or a nightbus filled with drunks and students. Or worse still, drunk students.
2) Buy a pair of designer trainers. They were most likely made in a sweatshop and the profits will most likely go to the Operations Manager who built the sweatshop who will most likely use it to go towards his annual membership at the exclusive golf club. And I don't want another one of those guys at my golf club. Besides, why have so many pairs of shoes when you only have one pair of feet?
3)Burn it. It's bad for the environment and as David Brent pointed out, it's illegal to burn legal tender. It sort of becomes illegal tender.
4)Back Tiger Woods for the US Masters. His driving is looking a little wayward, his putting has been erratic and his new swing is lacking some of the old rhythm of old. Plus that jacket isn't sponsored by Nike and he doesn't look good in green so he's not too keen on winning it anyway.
5) Lend it to me. There's as much chance of getting it back as there is of Kim Kardashian getting a job.
Trying to win £100 so they can spend it as unwisely as I'd expect it of them are Arsenal12345 and defending champ Paulscholes18.
