Have you ever won anything worthwhile?

I've won various small things over the years like the odd bottle of wine on a raffle or the odd £10 on a scratch card or lottery but that's been about it, never anything worth more than say £10, What about you?

And a few weeks ago I won Laura Marling's CD
I am counting this as a lucky streak. Can't remember the last thing I won before these.
I did manage to win £150 a month ago in an internet competition. :eek:
Only 101 people did the survey! It was an earworm survey I found out about on 6music.
I also won the raffle at a Shitmat gig once but couldn't find my ticket. I found it the next day. :mad:
Other than that I don't think I've won anything else.
EDIT:
Oh wait a minute, just remembered in won an iPod Shuffle on one of those stacker machines. It was a really good piece of luck because the other guys at work were trying desperately to win it and putting loads of money in the machine. I casually went on there one day after work, and won it straight away!
I went in to the kitchen and showed one of the guys who was desperately trying to win it, and he was genuinely really pissed off with me. And to add insult to injury I hardly ever used the thing either, it sounded like a turd compared to my Sony MP3 player.
I won a GIANT easter egg when I was 3, it seemed pretty immense at the time:D
In reply to the question, I've never won anything worthwhile either.
Winning a PSP would've been great! I would've sold it and got quite a nice amount for it.
I was in Tesco's earlier on in the summer and an older lady three places ahead of me in the queue took her thunderball ticket in to be checked as she thought she had one something with it. It turns out, after a bit of commotion at the lottery machine, she'd actually won the £250,000 jackpot, and a member of staff had to take her to the staffroom for a sit down and a cup of tea
My mate's mum won a car in a competition.
I won two tickets to MotoGP at Donington one year, worth a few quid. I don't even know who I won them from, I just had a phone call one day for congratulations.
I never play the lottery.
Was that with the National Railway Museum? We entered this summer and I remember thinking what an odd prize.
I won a 42" HD TV. Hubby was unemployed at the time and he was over the moon. Every christmas, birthday & fathers day for the next two years, I would point to the tv and say "there is your present"
Before that, just a tenner on the launch night of the Lottery, and a skateboard at a circus when I was 10.
