Default Do you play the Lottery?
Do you play it?

Do you have your own selected numbers or do you just do lucky dips?


And do your numbers have any meaning? or just random?

sometimes I do but I would never have the same set of numbers just incase they came up at time when I hadn't played, that would be soul destroying!

Do it once every few months...

Usually just pick random numbers myself on 1 line and do the Lost numbers on another line.

I play for fun. I spend Ł1.00 a week, sometimes I forget to buy it.

I used to use birthdays, anniversary's numbers but these days I just buy a lucky dip.
Few months ago(?) I saw numbers under Andy's avatar, I was tempted to use them. I wonder what would happened if I did,,,.

Yeah I play the lottery frequently.

Was a bit miffed a couple of months ago when checking my ticket, I normally have one lucky dip and one set of numbers from house numbers i have lived in. There was me with 5 and the bonus ball, yahoo i thought then I checked the draw date on the website and it was from the previous wednesday, the site i had used hadnt updated the results page. Quite hacked off with camelot for giving me those numbers for a lucky dip, but then they had the same chance as any other set of numbers.

My dads friend's numbers came up and he was meant to win about 250k just over that i think.. and his family were excited and called him because he was away on business.. and he hadnt played it because he had been working until 8pm.. meaning he couldnt buy his ticket that day LOL

How pissed would you be!

I always play the same numbers and have done from when it first started, and during all that time have won about 5 lots of Ł10 and once I got four numbers and won Ł66! lol. Still you've got to be in it to win it.

I play occasionally, always lucky dip
My parents have chosen the same numbers for years and now they can't not play those numbers in case they come up!
My first ever lottery ticket won me Ł64 nothing since though!
