Anyone won on it ?
Just paid my first £10 for the month (£1,000 draws every day, and loads of others for the whole month)
Bored of lotto, been doing it since 1994 and won a total of £70
Gone up to £2 plus more numbers so less chance of winning, now euro millions gone up to £2.50 plus added an extra number so even less chance of winning
With the postcode lottery the whole street can win up to £3M.... So best not tell anyone in your street otherwise your winnings will be less, I've canvassed my street of 12 house and glad to see only 3 others are doing it :thumbsup:..GAME ON

Unless you're a northerner with really bad teeth I'm afraid you don't have a chance.

Not sure what Postcode lottery is but will investigate.

Glad you've brought this subject up as I've been thinking of raising a similar thread recently re Euromillions and National Lottery.

The most I've won on a single ticket is £10 and I've been playing it on and off since 1994. In the past 14 weeks since restarting it I've paid out £116 (£2 on each draw Saturday/Wednesday and Friday/Tuesday and had two free lucky dips for getting two numbers on the National Lottery).

I'll still carry on playing though...someone has to win it.

I was gonna post something similar on their official Twitter account (maybe leaving out the bad teeth)
Scrolled down past Twitter tweets and 95.9% of winning post codes were northern

Apparently more chance of Rooney becoming PM than any one who takes part winning the lottery.

These days, I wouldn't be surprised to wake up and find Rooney as PM.

I was in it for about 3 months and won a couple of quid. Just be warned that although it's easy to join they make it doubly difficult to leave with loads of nagging letters, e-mails and phone calls for weeks afterwards.

What a rubbish statement to make by somebody wishing to appear superior as the odds on Rooney becoming PM are quoted as 1m to 1 but to win the jqckpot it is 1.4m to 1 hence greater chance of Rooney becoming PM than the odds of me or you winning the lottery.

Was 14m to 1 now 45m to 1 absolute ripoff
