Scratchcard win?

[imhotep]

Has anybody had a big win or small win on a scratchcard recently? What is the most you have won on one?
I bought an Olympic Champions scratchcard earlier on today and I won a massive prize of..................................
............................wait for it.....................................................
...........�15 Yes,fifteen pounds.
Mind you, I did win around �34 a few weeks ago on a scratchcard..
The biggest amount I won was just �50 which was many years ago.I did win on the Euromilllion too....�23.20

you dont actually ''win'' anything do you?when you work out what you spend,unless you win thousands or millions of pounds the outlay what you spend on these things far outweighs any ''winnings'' you may have.............

Most I`ve won is �2, although a bloke from work won �1000 on one a few months ago

And he treated everyone on shift that afternoon to......

A packet of biscuits!

[imhotep]

That's very true stokemaveric!!
Some people spend an absolute fortune on the lottery.
I remember queueing up behind this man quite some time ago, and he bought at least 15 or so scratchcards which were about �2 a time.Talk about an avid gambler!
I'm very careful how much I spend these days.I don't always have a go on the midweek draw.

[imhotep]

Talk about a generous colleague Elvis!

Could have at least bought you all a few rounds of beer or whatever after work!!

the football team who i used to play for imhotep a couple of years ago had a syndicate we saved any winnings,the odd �10.00 here and there and even a couple of 4 number wins we amassed �160.00 and we decide to have 160 lucky dips on the xmas 2006 draw....and do you know how much we won?..................nothing........i kid you not....not a single penny,that just shows you what a rip off this lottery is.....

my ex-father-in-law won an �18k Astra on a scratchcard. he didn't drive and gave the car to 1 of his 4 kids. it started all manner of problems, stupid man!

[stokemaveric]

elvis he didnt have to do that tho did he?.......lol

In our shop we sell Lottery and Scratch cards. Have paid out �70 once in 5years of selling them!

The trick (scratch cards) seems to be to buy from a new roll and within the first 20......so am told by the regulars.

Now you can all be winners!

i got 1 and won 1 pound, so i back to same shop swapped it another one and won 1 pound again, so i swapped another card again, i won 5 pounds, in the end i swapped those 5 pounds to 5 cards but this time didnt get a penny:((

[stokemaveric]

i bet it did sarah3 why didnt he just sell it and split the money 4 ways?thats what i would have done to save any resentment......

Never mind the scratch card, i have been playing the lottery every wed and sat for the past 3 and a half years with the same numbers and havent even won �10 (although 3 of my numbers finally came up the one week i forgot to put it on in all those years - typical- thank god it was just �10 and noty a big win).

[sara3]

because he is a useless, piece of sh1t w*nker!

[ELVIS68]

I`ve never been lucky when it comes to money

I lent a mate �10,000 so he could have plastic surgery, now I don`t know what he looks like to ask for it back

[imhotep]

I agree with all of you about this lottery business by Camelot.
Wasn't there a controversy at one time when Camelot applied to renew their contract, and then Richard Branson was interested to step in and take over?
Hmm,I can't remember for sure about this.
Good idea to buy from a new roll of scratchcards though!

[imhotep]

Is that really true ELVIS, or is it a joke?

If it's true, that certainly is quite a lot of money to lend!!!

[stokemaveric]

lol elvis i nearly fell off my chair.......pmsl.......

[imhotep]

By the way stokemaveric is reeling around in laughter, it's got to be a joke.
:-))......lmao anyway

[imhotep]
