New Lottery price increase

£20k would do me, thank you very much.

I was gonna stop doing the lottery.  Then I saw this....and it's £35k.  Therefore gambling is the only chance I have of ever affording it...

Ooh that is kinda nice @RobDavies and a stealthy colour too. Saves washing it so win win.

Woah me like! I need to buy a car and need summat that can take my mountain bike and my snowboard.
I also play the Lottery and do the work syndicate.
£2 per week extra (a pint in Wetherspoons) and I could still get that wagon? I'm in!

The £10 prize for matching 3 numbers has gone up to £25

What's the most anyone on here has won on the lotto? I was in a syndicate at work and we got 5 numbers once, but there were 12 of us and it was a shit week for payouts... I think we ended up with £110 each. Otherwise I've had the odd tenner and 4 numbers a couple of times...paid out £80 and £30. Dread to think how much I paid in though.  

I stopped doing the lotto when I split with my ex. Seeing as how I know she hasn't won squillions of quids yet, I've saved myself about £750 so far.

I won £64 once with 4 numbers.

£1500 in the first year it ran. They've had it back since!

Being skeptical of charities is actually a pretty damn smart thing these days. Amerifag centric, but still an interesting resource:

£10 the third week after it started. Do it about twice a year since and won nowt. I'll have to cut down to once a year to compensate for the mahoosive price hike.

So I heard they have done it because they have lost sales....Mmm will try that on my boss when he complains our sales are down..I'll tell him what we need to do is double our price....... then I'll get my coat .....

To be honest I'd be more keen to do the lottery if there were loads more prizes between 1K and 50K That sort of money would make me very happy!

@axisus ; that is wise. Better than a few getting a lot, and a lot getting £10

I think they should get rid of the bonus ball.

Hootsmon

give us a number between one and ten.......sorry, wrong!

now give me a number between 0ne and fourteen million.....that's your chances of winning the lotto

fuck that shit

fretmeister

I just won £25!

I just noticed the number of balls has increased.

For once in my life I threw £20 at it last week but it's a fool's game and I was a fool.

You could always go for the Russian version...
