Win £3,000 for a Joke!
Reading Time: < 1 minuteA new contest has been launched that will see one lucky winner receive £3,000 – all for a one-liner joke. Here’s what you need to know…
Flaming Grill, of Greene King pubs and restaurants, recently launched a survey that revealed just how much Brits believe in banter. However, there are some things we don’t like to be teased about, regardless of who is telling the joke!
Over 20% of respondents said that a joke about finances was in their off-limits lists, as were intelligence, love life, and fashion sense coming in close behind. Almost one third of millennials said that their usual response to banter is to reply with a sarcastic remark, while only 79% of those aged 65 and older laughing it off instead.
There were a few things people did agree on: the line not to cross includes jokes about mental health, physical appearance, and gender or sexuality, with the majority of respondents saying they’d avoid jokes about these topics. But when it comes to grilling your friends, 12% said there is nothing off-limits.
So, how does this all tie in to a chance to win £3,000? Greene King have decided to award a lucky customer voting for their favourite one-liner response with the cash prize! All you need to do is vote for your favourite one liner that you’d like to use to banter with your friends and family, and the winner will walk away with £3,000.
Hurry – the competition closes on Tuesday 7th May 2024. Full details and entry here.
I used to be indecisive, but now I’m not so sure!

Thanks for this – at time of writing, it was correct and appears to have now gone to the next round for voting. The article has been amended to reflect this.
