These are the biggest winners in the People’s Postcode Lottery this year from across Sheffield, Barnsley Doncaster and Rotherham, and how they spent the huge windfall.
Neighbours on one street shared a life-changing £270,000 and the plans for splashing the cash included a new home, a cruise, a big birthday bash in Las Vegas.
Other people had more modest plans for how to use the cash, with one winner describing how she planned to spend some of her £30,000 getting her hallway and kitchen wallpapered.
As well as bringing joy to the many winners, the lottery continues to support numerous good causes, for which it has now raised more than £800 million over the years.
