Scratch Cards - What is the most you have ever won?

mrk · 23 Feb 2011 at 14:24

I have won £91 once on a £2 card, in Stoke-On-Trent of all places!

The rest have been £1, £10 etc.

Have not bought a scratch card in probably a year though!

I don't buy a lotto ticket or scratch card often and if I do it's only a single ticket.

£70 from a £2 card, rarely buy them though.

I've only ever bought a few of them. Highest win was £2 from a £1 card.

28 quid but don't worry I spent it instantly on more scratch cards.

The real gamble is when to stop..

In theory you should stop playing as soon as you make a net profit, as the average person makes a loss (good business model). If I ever got £20 up I'd probably call it a day tbh. Only played about 5 in my life though.

Bought 5 £1 cards and one contained £60

£200 when they first cameout, but that was on a syndicate and split between about 20 of us

My personal biggest win is £56. Had loads of £20's and £10's too.

According to this thread no one has lost.

National lottery must have a very unhealthy business on their hands.

You take your time ...

£10 and I didn't even get it! The idiot behind the counter at Tesco scratched too hard and ruined the code that he had to type in, in order for me to receive the money. He simply said sorry and that was that. The manager said the same too, despite it being their fault. :rolleyes:

I bought 2 for £1 each when they first came out and won 4 quid.

Sure fire way of doubling your money apparently

1 x £1, 1 x £2

Spent about a tenner in my life on them

Quite simple really, you post it to the address on the back & they'll send you a cheque.
Having said that, company policy is that the customer should scratch the code off themselves to prevent this issue. If they wrecked it, I'd be expecting them to payout anyway and send it in from store. (It's perfectly possible to do this)

Mom won £60, but that's about it.

jellybeard999 · 23 Feb 2011 at 19:31

Bought a £1 card, won £1, bought another, didn't win and haven't played any since.
