Bugger, I didn't win any money on the lottery last night

I want to give up work and sleep for a month and then be the best mum ever to my dc.
Seeing as I didn't win the lottery again any other ideas? This is lighthearted as I seriously can't see a way out of the ratrace and sometimes I love my job. I just want some sleep!

Neither have I, I was gutted when I realized I can't just jet off to the bahamas. Maybe go digging in your garden and look for any burried treasure?

I won a free lucky dip. My time is coming - a millionaire tomorrow or Saturday! Grin

Orangedaisy · 24/05/2018 19:01

Yes I felt the same. I am off work with DD2, going back soon but all that will do is start to pay off debt. Our times have to come!

clownfaces · 24/05/2018 19:01

I didn't win either. It may have helped if I'd bought a ticket Grin

vampirethriller · 24/05/2018 20:23

I didn't win. I think it's fixedGrin

WhoWants2Know · 24/05/2018 21:49

It's very important that I win soon, in order to fund my upcoming Mumsnet-inspired project. I want to buy one of the empty local properties that needs attention and restore it beautifully- before filling it with all the most outrageous things from the facebook tat threads. It could be the most fun air b&b ever!

glenthebattleostrich · 24/05/2018 21:51

I'm waiting to win 50 million tomorrow on euromillions. I'm not greedy so not waiting on a big jackpot!

Feckitall · 24/05/2018 22:01

You will all have to wait...my numbers are due....I have the house I will buy lined up in my mind .....and the yacht is in the brokers adverts...
and resignation letter for work typed and saved on lappy
Grin

HelloDC1 · 24/05/2018 22:03

Sorry to all of you who are hoping to win on Saturday - I already have the winning ticket here Grin
I made sure it was specifically the winning one that I asked for! If I don't win this week it's Alison from Tesco's fault

ProudThrilledHappy · 24/05/2018 22:06

I have just had to cancel the sports car I preordered on tuesday afternoon in anticipation of my grand win. Very disappointed Grin

On a serious note if I did win I would buy a house with a big garden and adopt all the unwanted, older dogs in our local shelter and just live out the rest of my days surrounded by lovely hounds

MissusGeneHunt · 24/05/2018 22:08

Actually, sorry, you're all being unreasonable, it's MY ticket that's the winner tomorrow night... I bloody wish.... Grin... actually OP, sleep would be the ultimate luxury! I totally get that!! Zzz zzz.....

GnomeDePlume · 24/05/2018 22:22

Glad to hear that I'm not the only one with a fully worked out lottery plan!

ChevalierTialys · 24/05/2018 22:30

Ah damn, neither did I!

I was going to book me and the kids into a large suite in some expensive hotel that has a heated indoor swimming pool and spa for a month while we bought a house. Then I was going to quit work and spend every day at various spa's, judging them on how good the quality of their house wine is (while also of course being the perfect SAHM). I would also buy an obnoxiously massive range rover type car, unnecessary for city living, which I would only use for the school run and shopping, in the city I live in.

ChevalierTialys · 25/05/2018 15:09

£50 million in the euromillions. Tonight is going to be My night, I can feel it in my bones.

theredjellybean · 25/05/2018 15:15

I have first dibs on euro millions but actually would be happy if 50 munsnetters all won one mill each

MissionItsPossible · 25/05/2018 15:23

Did you know that Simon Cowell plays the lottery? Angry And has had many big wins according to him. WTAF? If he's had several big wins then I'm guessing he's not buying one ticket a week but something ridiculous like 500 or 1000.

yoyococo · 25/05/2018 15:36

I've got a ticket in my purse from Tuesday that I haven't checked. I could still be a millionaire.

thecatsthecats · 25/05/2018 15:50

Every time my application to win the lottery gets rejected, and never have I had a single call explaining the reasons why. Bloody rude, that is.

WhoWants2Know · 25/05/2018 16:31

Without so much as an interview? The nerve.

UnicornRainbowColours · 25/05/2018 16:49

Only chavs seem to win lottery!

thecatsthecats · 25/05/2018 18:31

Well I get to interview stage in my head, but I hear nothing after that!

WhoWants2Know · 25/05/2018 19:10

I'm happy to become a chav if that will help. Is it still about wearing Burberry stuff?

GladAllOver · 25/05/2018 19:23

I have never won anything on the lottery, but I have never bought a ticket so I reckon I'm actually ahead. :)

StarbucksSmarterSister · 25/05/2018 19:31

I have never won a tenner - and I mean never. I don't buy a ticket really often but I don't know anyone else who's not won at least £10 and they don't all do it every week either.

I don't even want millions, I'd be happy with ten grand. Okay, I'd be happy with one.
