Do you buy lottery tickets

I occasionally buy one if it’s a big rollover.

I've never bought one. My husband does the lottery and the Irish lottery. He once won £12k on that.

Yes have bought tickets since it started. Unfortunately I chose birthday numbers so felt so "tied in". When the Wednesday lottery started I felt compelled to do my numbers in that too. Then they increased to other days and I made myself stop. I now have a lucky dip most weeks, but don't mind if I miss a week. As I never check the winning numbers (I do it online and they notify of a win) I wouldn't know if my birthday numbers have ever come good.

Yes I do it’s the only way I’ll retire early if I win it!

From time to time. I stopped using same nos the week it started and my dh was determined to stop on the motorway just to get a ticket in case they came up. I pick them at random. Wherever my pen lands. I only get one each time as I believe you have to be really lucky to win but at least I’m in with a mini chance.

I do the euro millions when I remember.

Never bought one, so ‘ it won’t be me!’

I think we did buy a couple, years ago, but not now. I think I am too mean.
Anyway it all seems very complicated now, as there are so many variations. Anybody else feel like that?

No, never. Think of the money I’ve saved!

Used to occasionally, have had a bit of a run lately, the odd £50, £30 etc, so we are actually "up" overall!

Of course, this has meant that I now play every week!

The tickets I bought today were covered by the winnings from last week. Went and and bought a couple of scratch cards, zilch on one, £20 on the other!

I shall tomorrow as it is a big rollover. I shall remember you all when I win! (I won't give you anything but I will remember you.)

No. I have some premium bonds which could win a large amount, never have but at least I get my money back. I think the massive prizes on some lotteries are ridiculously high. It would be much better to split them into, say, £4m-5m prizes, still a life-changing sum but spread among more people.

I agree Cunco but I think £1m is enough.
I have an online lottery account. I vary which ones I do. In all the years I've done it I've only won £10.
Husband thinks it's nonsense so of course when I win the jackpot I won't share it.
I've never bought a scratchcard. Maybe I should. ...
