My dad just bought two lottery tickets today for tomorrow with a jackpot of 24 million, and I was just wondering has anyone here ever won the lottery, like proper big money, not just the measly £10 or whatever. do you know anyone that's won the lottery?
Personally I think there's really no point buying a lottery ticket since you never really win. Most of the time you just get like £10 or £20 but i guess it's better than nothing... what do you think?

i havent ever won big, but I think that if it could happen to anyone else in the draw it could happen to me. I win quite frequently on the scratch cards, the biggest amount being $25. Also, I went to the casino for the first time in 2009 and won $200 which I was extremely happy about.

Well I have never won the lotto in terms of a big prize. However, I usually play either a combination of my families and mine birthdays when I do play. Last year I actually cost myself 33000 dollars. Up until that time I was very consistent about playing the same numbers everytime I played. The problem was I was in a rush that night and I just got a quick pick. Unfortunately for me, the lotto numbers came, and if I would have played my regular numbers, I would have won the prize for 5 out of 6 numbers. That week the prize for 5 out 6 was just over 33000
