PMP was launched 15 years ago, by coincidence, and hilarious misfortune, on April Fools’ Day. My sincere expectations were for it to be shut down after a few days, when I could no longer tolerate giving £10 away to strangers every day. We’ve since had ~3.5million signups, roughly 1 in 20 of the UK, given away £3.35 million, and been sued once.
We even have Superfans, like the omnipresent Chocolate Spaniel, and the very lovely and very orange Tango Doll (here she is telling us about her 2nd win), who sends us gifts every year. This year she made a very accurate PMP logo made of felt, and then hand delivered it to our office. She was in reception as I was leaving. She then made this impressive, though way too flattering, video about the whole experience:
It was so nice to meet her properly after all these years.
So how are things at PMP? To be honest, we’re mostly in the same place we were 10 years ago, which is around when we went from being my side hustle to a real business, with employees, and office plants. We have roughly the same number of people visiting daily (~200k), but make a lot less money from ads, but make that money back from the surveys on the Survey Draw. So, if you do want to support us, and you don’t regularly answer those surveys, please consider doing so. True, we used to give away more on the Main Draw, but we now give away more as Bonuses. We’ve had some very big Bonus wins over the last few years, which is both painful, and delightful at the same time, since we know those loyal members really deserve the extra cash.
So, why haven’t we grown. Well, first thing. In this world staying still itself is actually progress. Running a small business is already an uphill struggle, and it only seems to get tougher. The biggest issue though is that a free lottery just doesn’t fit neatly in a box that any of the big tech companies play nicely with. We want to advertise more on Google, but they say they need to see a gambling certificate, which is something we cannot and should not have because…. A free lottery is not gambling. Pretty much the same with Meta, and we’re even banned forever on Tiktok. For ever. They will not tell us why.
We’re often approached by big websites who want to promote us, only to find the Suits Department later say No, without explanation, and “will not correspond further on the matter.”
It sounds like I’m whingeing, and perhaps I am a bit, but I’m also proud. Proud that we’ve survived, have given away nearly £4 million as well as supported our team and their families. I’ll never stop being grateful for your daily visits, let alone birthday presents.
And here comes the Ask. Given all the above it really does help when you share your Referral Link. They can stop us advertising, but they can’t stop you posting (….yet….).
Back to the Tango Doll. In an earlier email she listed some ideas for getting the word out about PMP. They included, outdoor ads with a QR code for signing up (I like this… Will look into it) and a Road Show where I turn up in an area with the most picked postcodes (Not so keen on this one, as I don’t think anyone will recognise me).
One idea we’re considering at the moment is whether to run a paid draw, whether as a one-off or weekly event. We realise this doesn’t really fit the ethos, but given how the tech cos and suits think we’re gambling anyway, and the amount of people who write in suggesting it, is it time to give it a go? Imagine a £1 entry and a chance to win, say £10,000.. Would that work? We’re keen to hear your thoughts about this, and any other suggestions in the comments section below.
Until next time, here’s a photo of the Tango Doll (Sheridan) and me, outside our office.
Love
Chris & Team & Superfans x

The Terry's eggs I've seen have either a whole Terry's Chocolate orange with it, or a number of mini eggs inside it. The only other I've seen looks big but the size is stated as 34g and has mixed reviews as people expect a fondant in it but it's a much thicker and less sweet filling, dryer than creme egg fillings are. I've seen the inside and it's unlikely I'd buy it. What I did buy today was four packs of crumpets at 10p/pack, six crumpet packs. And 20 blocks of lightly salted butter for £18.99, less the coupon of £2 off £25 spend. 87p for a block of butter is great these days. You should think of your heart. Mine will fall in love with a deal like that.

Question of the day: What are you doing this long, Easter weekend?
If you have any questions that you would like us to ask, please feel free to email us at admin@pickmypostcode.com
Anonymous

There’s an ongoing myth about Easter and despite constantly being debunked, it’s always added to sites that specialise in promulgating misinformation.
The claim that Easter is a celebration of prostitution is a modern myth stemming from a combination of false etymology, the conflation of different historical figures/deities, and the distortion of ancient religious practices.
This narrative typically arises from two primary, unsupported arguments:
Etymological Confusion (Ishtar vs. Eostre): The claim that "Easter" is derived from "Ishtar," the Mesopotamian goddess of love, sex, and fertility.
Mary Magdalene Misconception: The long-standing, inaccurate tradition that Mary Magdalene, the central witness to the Resurrection, was a prostitute.
Here is a breakdown of the facts behind this myth:
1. The Ishtar and Eostre Myth
The Claim: Proponents of this myth argue that Easter is a rebranded pagan holiday celebrating Ishtar, which they claim involved widespread ritual or temple prostitution.
The Reality: The word "Easter" is not derived from Ishtar. Linguists and historians trace the name to Eostre or Ostara, an Anglo-Saxon/Germanic goddess of spring and dawn, first documented by the Venerable Bede in the 8th century.
False Association: The similarity in sound between "Ishtar" and "Easter" is coincidental. Most of the Christian world calls the holiday a variation of Pascha (Passover), not Easter.

The system completes the draws from a database of active account ID numbers using a random number generator and the parameters of the smallest ID number to the largest. It then displays the postcode on the chosen account number as the winner of the draw. All it ‘sees’ is the account numbers of active members, it is not influenced by any other data or outside factors and is as random as a computer can be.
Any active account could win at any time. As with any lottery or giveaway, some people win and some don't, but at least ours is free. You don't often get the chance to win something for free in life, after all.

Yes, my friend was sounding off about it yesterday. The Waterside, from Hythe up to Southampton on the west side of the Solent, is proposed to join with Southampton and Eastleigh, I think, which will be enormous and totally unmanageable for any council. I know New Forest was going to be carved up too, and the Commoners are furious - they are applying for protected status, as a specialised, ancient order, and I can’t see how a council can fairly cover the needs for remote, isolated houses and small communities, at the same time as built-up, heavily-populated urban areas. Someone will lose out - guess who.

You only need the following as a link, the rest is tracking malarkey ...

When there's a ? in a link what follows is often not needed, although sometimes it can be useful. IMO it's always worth trying to strip that stuff before posting links. It might not just be tracking malarkey too, it might be a log-in code !!
Daft example of when those link extras can be useful though. Say you wanted to check when Buckingham Palace last won ...
head to past winners, type in the postcode and flick through the draw tabs ...

Many of you will have already heard this but it’s brand new to me and I’m still wiping my eyes. I haven’t laughed so hard at somethings for ages.
It’s a short video showing Adrian Edmondson singing "The Lonely Goatherd" to the tune of Coldplay's "Fix You" on the BBC Radio 4 comedy show I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue.
It’s a combination of the seriousness of the singer, the excruciating high start and the ludicrous combination of lyric with melody.
If you watch it, turn your volume up to appreciate the song. 😆

We regularly review the number of prizes given away to ensure that our competitions /free prize draws remain sustainable. Unfortunately, we've had to reduce the number of new draws on Win a Dinner but hope to be able to reverse that change later in the year when some improvements to the advertising have been implemented.
Our Rules (https://winadinner.com/rules/) explain that "at least one random player is chosen when there is a draw. If the winner fails to visit the site and collect then the prize pot is rolled into the next one." There is still the possibility that the number of winners will increase if all previous wins are not claimed.
