Those not lucky enough to scoop the jackpot prize could still walk away with anything ranging from £25 up to a life-changing £100,000.

The top prize for this month's Premium Bonds draw was won by two UK residents - one from York and another, from Essex. The winner from York has a holding of £49,976, purchased in December 2021, while the second jackpot holds £14,600 in premium bonds dating back to March 2000 - more than 23 years ago.

Described on the Money Saving Expert website, NS&I Premium Bonds is a savings account you can put money into (and take out when you want), where the interest paid is decided by a monthly prize draw.
