Answer 2

Awww, that's so noble.  I'd do exactly the same too :)

Well, check out

www.national-lottery.co.uk

They have all the info you need about the games, playing online etc.  I play online these days though I've wondered if it is indeed a fix - i.e. they have better idea of the number you pick by playing online and therefore can make it so that combination of numbers don't pitch up in the draws - I don't quite see how that is possible mind you, all the draw balls have to be the same, unbiased and so on.  I've never heard of anyone winning big online yet.  Having said that, touch wood, if I keep playing online, I might get lucky!

I used to find playing Thunderball would win me a fiver every other time.  Nowadays, I only play if big bucks can be won, such as on Euromillions because I figure that the average jackpot is around £10m and that would see me through life, woo!

Answer 3

The National Lottery is a stealth tax for people who are not good at Maths!!

Answer 4

The lucky dips are good as I have won more money then doing ones picked

Answer 5

I only play the regular lotto every saturday and I won ten pounds last week

Answer 6

Better to try and win one million on the premium bonds and you still have your £1 stake at the end of the day.

Answer 7

Ive been playing from the start. most Ive one is about £50 many years ago. there are loads of different draws now but i only play the main draws. I put £1 on the midweek draw (Wednesday) and £1 on the Saturday draw. I sometimes put one go on the euro millions draw which is on a Friday night. That costs more (don't know why) £1.50 I have set up a standing order account with the national lottery on their website so i don't need to do anything. it all gets done for me. so i never miss or forget to put my numbers on. I use lucky dip. its a game of chance so you have just as much chance of winning as if you pick ur own numbers.

good luck

Answer 8

I go for it 3 times a week.Wed,Fri and Sat.It's the euro on Fridays@£1.50 per line-bigger jackpot but harder to win. You've got just as much luck winning on a lucky dip and people do.I'm unlucky too but I say those lines buy me hope!
