The resort is packed with attractions, arcades, bars and restaurants where visitors can still enjoy a day or night out without spending a fortune.
Some people said they would head straight for the famous penny pushers or try their luck at bingo, while others would spend the money on family attractions such as the Blackpool Tower Circus, Sealife Centre or the zoo.
Food and drink also featured heavily in the suggestions, from fish and chips on the Promenade to cheap drinks in the Ardwick or a meal out at one of the town’s many restaurants.
Here are some of the most popular ideas people shared:
19. Funny Girls
Blackpool’s famous cabaret venue also appeared in the suggestions. “A good meal and a night out at Funny Girls,” wrote Erika Harness. | Google

Others said they would simply explore one of the resort’s most iconic landmarks. “Go in the Tower,” wrote Debbie Hall. Joanne Shemeld added: “I’ve never been in the Tower, so I’d go there.” | Contributed
21. Blackpool Zoo
A day out with the animals was another popular choice. “I’d spend it on my child and take him to the zoo,” wrote Chantel Elaine Brown. Ally Mclellan suggested combining it with a classic seaside treat: “The zoo, and a few pints and a bag of chips.” | Google
22. Donate to charity
Not everyone said they would spend the money on themselves. Some suggested using it to help others instead. “Give it to a children’s charity so they can have a proper Easter bunny and eggs,” wrote Caroline Hair. Others suggested buying Easter eggs for care homes, food for the homeless, or even handing out £1 burgers to people in need. One commenter, Angi Robb, wrote: “Buy 50 £1 burgers and give them to the homeless, then spend my own money in the RNLI shop and feel good for the day.” | Katt Yukawa
