I’m apparently a “Suburbanite”. My PERFECT property would be close to the Ocean. Waking up to stunning views of distant Islands or a Castle. I like to live in the Countryside, close to Nature, Plenty of Peace & Quiet. But NOT to be Isolated & Miles from ANYONE. Still want to have Shops & people Nearby me.

So maybe if I bought some boxes and shelves

From my shoes and to my mags

And maybe seeing the floor
Would make him like me more
And we could live in harmony together
And enjoy a wee nighttime blether

Suburbanite!
If I win I would spend the money on a new rug for my living room as the current one is looking a little worse for wear.
Leafy Bohemian. Stockbridge, Morningside and Marchmont, eh? No thanks! A quiz that gives options that you struggle to identify with any of them. I’d spend £100 on stuff nobody would expect I would buy! X-D

Suburbanite in Glasgow – surprising! My flat is practically all IKEA already, I think IKEA works anywhere – I hope it fits in my next place too!
Suited & Booted in Glasgow!
Work is just as important to you as play and there’s nothing wrong with that. You need to be in an area with good connections to the city centre to make sure you get in on time each morning. You also prefer areas with young professionals, to avoid midweek parties as they are the enemy of your alarm clock. That doesn’t mean it’s early to bed every night though, having a nice bar/restaurant in the area can take the edge off a tough day at the office. A nice glass of wine and local amenities nearby make for a happy home life for you. I would spend the vouchers on big pillows to sit on for my veranda and lots more big candles for my house, also possibly a wee treat or two for my little kitty.
Leafy bohemian in Shawlands……correct!!!
I would look to spend the £100 on curtains and cushions to make my house feel more homely

Leafy bohemian in Glasgow. Very fitting actually, these vouchers would help my move west.
Leafy bohemian in Glasgow, super keen to get a warm blanket and some plants for my cosy flat.
I got leafy bohemian in Glasgow! I’ve not lived there before, but I’m hoping to move there and find a nice place to rent when I start working as a junior doctor. Having a cosy flat that I could really make my own is a dream! I would probably use the Ikea voucher for some practical purchases, like a desk and shelves, but hopefully I would have enough left over to buy a few more plants (can you ever have enough?)
Leafy bohemia
