My mam works in the co-op where a winning card was bought, 25k, lucky twat$

Also in our area, a bloke won the top prize on a scratchy 3-4 yrs ago, that was 75k, must be nice.

My biggest was 50 notes, had a couple of 20's but thats it for me.

Beats me. I never play the things. One Christmas dinner my Uncle bought us all scratch cards to scratch off after lunch. I won the £1 back. woohoo!

I've seen £200 won before my eyes, person in front of me in an off license.

Very poor % payback, watchdog did a thingymy on it once. Also use of heartstoppers, which is illegal I believe.

£17 is my biggest win, usually there £1 tho so you just buy another

Had a mate when I was younger rob a shop and had a big reel of them, he scratched them all off and only won £80

Don't know how much truth there was too it tho as we were quite young at the time. Although only winning £80 is believable!

You have a 1 in 4 chance of winning. So they claim. Well, if i spend £1 and win £1, i've won nothing. I reckon they should say you have a 1 in 4 chance of making your money back, and about a 1 in 20 chance of anything more.

Theres a page on teletext were you can see the amounts that have been won from the different cards, i find them very tempting at times. 75K or 50K think id be forced to snatch it from the hands of the beholder. Mwa ha ha ha. Na couldnt do that you would have no luck with the money if that was the case. Im gona purchase one later.
