EuroMillions Lottery

[redman41]

From Saturday May 7th this Lottery will be held twice weekly starting on May 10th with an estimated £85m Jackpot. A new Format and more chance of winning smaller prizes but will you just end up spending more in the hope of winning ?
Might do it instead of National Lottery !

[sandyRoe]

They put the cost of a ticket up to £2 and now they want us to play twice weekly. It's getting too expensive

[gingejbee]

I've never bought any sort of lottery ticket EVER, and I won't be starting now.
I'm one of those odd people who is happy with what they have, rather than dreaming about what they MIGHT get.

[redman41]

For those completed addicted to gambling ( spending all their wages ) it becomes more of an addiction.
Although I do the Irish Lottery at the Bookmakers twice weekly I limit what I spend otherwise I would be broke.
Most I've ever won on National Lottery is £89 ( 4 No's )

The Prizes for 3 and 4 Numbers is too low pixi. The Irish Lottery pays out more for the lower numbers than the National Lottery. !!

I do the National one every now and again though not usually Euromillions.

I did put into a work syndicate this week though as I figured there was more chance of winning even if the pot is shared.

I wish they would divide the prizes up into smaller amounts (well, not small to me) so they make say a load of millionaires rather than one person potentially becoming a multimillionaire.

you have to match more balls. But you do get £3 for 2

[piggynose]

its a lottery!!
lol

[starone]

I too like ginge am contented with what I have but I still do the lottery because if I actually won there are so many people and charities I could help. Unfortunately I am also not lucky - the most I have ever won is £10 for 3 numbers.

[redman41]

£117m Jackpot tonight, just think what you could buy with that !!!
With my luck I'll probably get no numbers at all..........onwards and upwards

[rowanwitch]

If I win I might not be around for a while.....you will find me by following the trail of recipts.....

LOL Rowan !!!

redman,
my one and only 4 number win was also £89. That was a few years ago, possibly the same draw as your win.

redman, how does the Irish lottery work?

[redman41]

The Irish Lottery at the Bookmakers is based on the Draws that take place every Wed and Sat. There are special slips for you to fill in as there are 3 draws on Wed and 3 Draws on Sat.
Choose 3 No's for a £1 and if all correct you win £600
Choose 4 no's for a £1 and if all correct you win £6,500
Much better returns for your money !
