    There were 3 euromillions quickpick tickets under the fruitbowl on the kitchen table for ages, so I just now decided to check them. I won €20!!!! But the ticket is for the draw that took place on Friday the 6th of March (95 days ago) but the tickets are only valid for 90 days!!!!


    AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

    It'd be worse if you'd won €130 million.

    Nearly had a fooking heart attack when I seen this thread.... got all excited..... and then....... opened it up...... and....... cracked up laughing :D
    Ring the National Lottery Headquarters and tell them you had mislaid the ticket and with the recession and hard times and all that could they please find it in their hearts to bend the rules and bit and give you your twenty squids.... :D

    I can beat that. I just won $40,000,000 (forty million dollars) in the Spanish lotto. It's strange as I didn't even have a ticket.


    Just got to western union off the processing fee now.

    No point, the machine will know your ticket is out of date even if the person behind the counter doesn't.

    Could be worth posting it into the Lotto - I'm sure they'd pay out for goodwill.
