Do You Do The National Lottery?

by **Cheyanne** Fri May 10, 2013 8:05 am

If so, it might be a good idea to check your own ticket(s)

I saw this story on the news the other night... Ooerrr

A shopkeeper, who tried to pocket nearly £80,000 from a customer's lottery win, is given a suspended jail sentence.

Nope.
Some people see it as a stealth tax ... I see it as a just another drug.

The majority of people never gambled in the past but I would imagine now that the majority do now.

Good description Jack, that's just what I do.

I love to dream about what I'd do if I did win some big money.

No...It's a waste of money...I've got some premium bonds that were bought by my grandfather when i was born and i should check those really!

It's what everyone I know does ... If I win I'll give so and so and I'll and then ... you come down.
Fairly harmless drug I hope.
Used to be illegal the numbers game.
The governments decided it was illegal cos it was a bad drug ... till it suited them of course now it's a good drug.

Is it really much different to doing the pools.

There is no harm in dreaming and who knows, maybe one day that dream will come true. Most I've ever won though is £81

I dunno.
I did say hopefully it's a harmless drug.

true in a way.. I don't miss £2 a week, but I would also hate for any dodgy shopkeeper to cheat me out of something I was entitled to!!! strangle

It's harmless providing you keep it under control.

I know of a woman who goes to the local One Stop 2 or 3 times a day to buy scratch cards. Sometimes she wins but never big although a friend of my partner won £50,000 on a scratch card some years ago now.

I remember years ago that as kids we had to keep silent every week when the football scores came on the tv while my mum checked her pools coupon. lol

Reminds me of being at my grandad's on a Saturday he was an avid pools fan. Won a few times too, not huge wins but big enough. Very Happy
