What about all those people on small incomes...hard to scrape together £2 a ticket for their dreams.
Exactly right smudgie, that £25 for 3 numbers which I think was designed to lure the small punters, is simply draining the prize fund, the number of winners of £25 means that nearly three times as much of the prize fund goes to those with 3 numbers up as used to go in Jackpots and the 5 + bonus is now just a joke, you'd be far better off playing Hot Picks at the old price of £1.
