    no win since July 8th on a high end 5 figure sum. That's 12 draws and nothing. For me there is no doubt and I will be withdrawing it all and putting it towards a house. In the meantime I may consider sending them a sarcastic letter asking them to check in my numbers are entered into the draw each week

    €50 today on 40k worth of bonds. Adding another 20k worth of bonds in the next month or two then going all out trying to buy a house for myself after Christmas.

    That's a lot better than what I'm getting ... I thought I was doing well at .82%! Is that 1.07% this year to date?

    Prize Bonds like the Lotto skew a lot of money towards the big prizes for publicity purposes

    Publicity?

    I've won a few 75s then a couple of 50s. Buy a couple of bonds every now and again if I'm feeling flush. It's the only form of gambling I'd ever do, except once every few years when I remember I'll bet a tenner each way at random on the Grand National. And after all it's funding Ireland!

    The prizes are a bit mingy: €1m won only once every three months; €50k every week except when the million is "awarded"; just 10 prizes of £1,000 and 10 of €500 every week and "€50 all other prizes" but no mention of how many are won.

    The weekly breakdown gives the no. of prizes (this is yesterday's):

    Seems like a decent run but all prizes are €50 so a return of .87% to date this year - better than last year but not anything to get excited about!
