Postcode Lottery

[Leeds2]

Had a flier through the post about this today, not something I had ever really thought about. Don't do the National Lottery in any of its variants at all.
So just wondered if any of you play and have you ever won? If so, how regularly have you won and how much (if you are happy to say)?

Being nosy really, but I am seriously considering joining.

they may occasionally throw £10 your way, to keep you on the hook, but your chance of winning anything big is pretty low and it’s £10 a month. DM has don’t it for around 5 years and never won a penny.

The flip-side is that you could spend £120 in a year subscribed to Postcode Lottery, and win nothing.
You would need to win £10 per month just to break even?

I won £5,500 soon after I joined about 4 years ago. No more big wins but fairly regular £10 wins. I still play. 😊

We got the flyer yesterday, I looked to see how often and what our postcode has won since 2014 and decided to give it a miss

We play - few £10 wins and also £1000

That's a decent win, annonymousse. I would be very happy with that!

Must admit, I didn't realise it was £10 per month to play. I need to read the join up instructions more carefully!

There have been several threads about this recently OP.

Oh! Sorry, I haven't seen any. MNHQ can delete if it is a problem, I hope.

I’ve won £10 here and there. The same area not far from me won the big prizes twice. I feel like I can’t come out of it now in case my postcode does win 🙄

If you pop a search for previous threads, they should come up :)

I used to play and won regularly at my last address. I don't play since I've moved because my neighbour won tens of thousands before I turned up and I think it's unlikely to happen again!

My mum does it, she's had a few £10s and won about £2k I think it was, her whole street pretty much won the money, sadly the big prize was a few streets away!

A relative won tens of thousands recently. So we started. I’ve won £10 semi regularly.

I have only won two tenners in two years. But I still play, just incase!

My husband's been playing for 3 years and he won 4 or 5 tenners and today I opened his letter from the postcode lottery and he has £8601 coming his way by the end of the week.
