villanmike Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Couldn't beleive it, highest I ever won before today was £50. Yeah, it was on that £10 a go scratch card called "£4Million Blue" , the guy behind the counter was in awe! What's the highest you have ever won? PS: I don't actually play them that often, so it's very lucky...I only bought the £10 one because I won £250 on a slot machine earlier in the day! All this on my daughters 4th birthday, so pleased!

hogso Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I have never bought a scratch card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Never won. Bought probably about 3 in my lifetime. I always feel when I play the lottery or buy a scratchcard that I'm going to win the jackpot. Never won a bean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LockStockVilla Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 A fiver. But then I lost the damn ticket. So really £0. I hate any and all forms of gambling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Probably bought about 5 scratchcards ever, none in the past 5 years. Think I won £1 Got 4 numbers on the lottery few years back was about £110. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this on my daughters 4th birthday, so pleased! even though you had just won £250 I'll bet there was a moment when you thought ''should I waste a tenner on a scratch card'' most I have won is £46 I used my last £1 on a scratch card and was absolutely **** skint and had 4 days till pay day so I was absolutely buzzing when I won that money...then I went and bought a snooker cue with the money so I was still skint...I dont think I ate for 3 day's but the cue was pretty good, I aint got a clue where it is these days though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked the guy serving me what was the most often card returning winnings and he said the £10 one, so I thought ahh sod it, and just went for it. I told him i'll buy him a beer when I get my funds.

Jimzk5 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Never brought one, occasional go on the lottery when I buy a lucky dip and ibe only ever won a tenner on that, but tbh I'd struggle to pay 10quid for a scratch card. Didn't even realise they cost that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Never bought one. I did buy one lottery ticket on my 21st birthday. I'd never played before, it'd have been a great story for the tabloids. Unfortunately the world doesn't work the way I thought it did, I didn't even get a single number.

leemond2008 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I have never ever bought a lottery ticket but funnily enough I said at work today that I was going to have a lucky dip for tomorrows draw...I didn't bother in the end though I'm in the syndicate at work but that is more because I wouldn't wanna be the only **** who didn't play and ended up losing out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or should we be getting the lottery numbers of you tomorrow ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunRickyRun Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 The odds are terrible (typically 10-1 to win your stake back then 20-1 to double it). However, they did subsidise me having a great time at the Olympics so mustn't grumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
