I joined a syndicate at work this week, for the first time since the big win I mentioned earlier in the thread. There's about 12 in it, I think. Only plays the Saturday game, and it was done in time for this weeks rollover.

A packs of cigarettes a month is the equivelant cost. I realise that is an abstract way to measure money, but I'm trying to give up and it helps.

I only bought the one ticket and only one number appeared. :evil:

Oh well, you win some, you lose some.

As above, one number.

By the way, can anybody explain "Lotto Extra" to me? You re-enter the same numbers for a chance to win less money, it costs the same as the normal "Lotto" but you don't get anything unless you have all six numbers, not even if you get three, four or five.

Completely pointless then?
Indeed. I'm in favour of rebranding it "cash cow", as that's all it is.

I have won a grand total of a massive £2. Interestingly, they were two wins of £1 on concurrent scratchcards.

I occasionally buy a scratchcard, and have won my quid back a couple of times. I won a tenner about three years ago on the main Lottery draw.

Has anyone here won anything on the lottery, or know someone who has?
Enough about scratch cards I'd scratch that nasty scab of your goofy face!
