Do you play the lottery
 
or do you think its an extra tax!

Personally I think its worth a punt even though the odds are so hugh, but then on the other hand someone always wins :shrug:

Every Tuesday and Friday!

The odd time, I think Gav has a ticket for the Euromillions this week actually :fc:

Cherie 06-09-2019 09:58 AM

Withano 06-09-2019 09:58 AM

No, because if people vote under the impression that votes are private you can't really change that afterwards

arista 06-09-2019 10:15 AM

Yes

I don't play it but if I'm in a petrol station on the right day, and I see a crazy rollover amount, then I always pick up a couple of lines. It's actually bizarre when you think of it; Oh yeah, £20m won't change my life, but if it's £50m then I'll go for it!

If I won half a million I'd stretch that out to change my life :laugh:

Just a random stab at it every once in a while (rare) :laugh:

I don't play the lotto but I do buy the odd scratchcard, prefer those as you actually have a reasonable chance of winning something

yeah about €2, has anyone ever actually won a decent amount on a scratchcard? I won €50 one time and it was like I'd won a few grand it was so unusual to win anything even halfway decent :laugh:

bots 06-09-2019 01:19 PM

i've heard the lottery described as gambling for the poor, but I don't see it like that at all. I watch out for large jackpots and buy 1 ticket for them. I'm not going to win 100+ million anywhere else, so why not.

£40 is my biggest lol, you do normally just get your money back but then pretty much all lottery 'wins' are just free lucky dips or a few quid

I do know of an old guy locally who won 100k on a £1 scratchcard. (apparently..)

haha Urban Legend? :laugh:

and if people win €1 or €2 they usually just get 1 or two more cards

Tom4784 06-09-2019 01:24 PM

Only if I'm feeling lucky. It's not something I do regularly.

Beso 06-09-2019 02:21 PM

Just euro millions .which we better not lose post brexit.

20m wouldn't change your life? Do you have caviar for breakfast?
