Doom

Myself and a mate bought 40 tickets one day for the craic....won feck all

Captain Slow IRL

€25 was the most.

I was in the Dr.'s surgery waiting room one day when a woman there scratched one and nearly **** herself when she won €500.

I think 8 quid was the most i've ever won. Heard somewhere before that people who are addicted to scratch cards get their buzz from the anticipation when scratching not the actual winning.

hollster2

Found a tenner before walking to the shop when I was broke so bought two €1 tickets won €2 on one and €25 on the other happy days!

PizzamanIRL

No.

I hate scratch cards how they tease you with 2 €10,000 reveals on the first line. Getting your hopes up nice and early.

Australian truck driver Bill Morgan's extraordinary string of luck began, strangely enough, when he was crushed in a truck accident and suffered a fatal heart attack.

Clinically dead for more than 14 minutes, Morgan was revived. After 12 days in a coma -- during which time his family was advised to unplug life support -- he awoke with all of his facilities intact. A year after his heart stopped, he proposed to his girlfriend, Lisa Wells. She said yes.

And then two weeks ago, he bought a scratch-off lottery ticket and won a car worth $17,000. A Melbourne TV station was so impressed with his run of luck, it decided to do a story on Morgan and re-enact his scratching of the ticket.

As the cameras rolled, Wells won a jackpot worth $170,000 (250,000 Australia dollars). He plans to use the money to buy a house for his bride.

After such extraordinary luck, Morgan is giving up the scratch cards. He says his only wish now is for continuing health and happiness, a sentiment Wells shares.

"I just hope he hasn't used all his good luck up," she said.

The most I've ever won was €4, when I should have won €500. That's what I despise about them - they can promise you hundreds if not thousands, then snatch it away as soon as you scratch away the last of it.

willah

€25 on all cash gold.

Friend won €20,000 once, got the scratchcard in a good luck card for his leaving cert.

scudzilla

Scratchcards are just another way of taxing the poor

CrazyRabbit

I 'won' a few hundred by never buying them.

Depp

The lowest form of gambling

dublinman1990

One day a few years ago; I was one amount away of winning either €10k or €100k after buying a Winning Streak Scratch Card from my local filling station.

But I than won about €8 on it for that day, not a cent more. My heart was racing like mad though.

The only ones I would win money are the Winning Streak cards. The rest are fit for the bin.

Bench Press

€25 myself, cousin won £1000 in old money years ago

gobnaitolunacy

Has anyone ever won anything on the non-Lotto ones I wonder? The ones they sell outside supermarkets for charity.

sunflower27

€50 last year. I very rarely buy them, maybe one every few months, so it was a nice surprise.

seven_eleven

I got 21 scratchcards for my 21st birthday

I wont nothing, not even a free.

Duvetdays

When I was little me and a friend went to the shop and outside on the ground somebody had thrown away a scratch card that was a £50 winner. The girl in the shop let us cash it. I bought £25 worth of polly pockets, felt like I'd won the lotto.

hollster2

I bought 2 €1 euro scratch cards yesterday won €8 euro and a free one whoop lol

RossyG

Yes. In the mid-90's I won a pound. I was thrilled.

Unfortunately, I blew it on another scratch card and lost the lot.

But for a while I felt rich.

Why, did the ticket say you won €500 but they only gave you €4?

Otherwise I don't see how you "should have" won €500

Tar.Aldarion

never bought any before but did telly bingo once and won a cool 30e or something. Wouldnt mind buying one for the fun some time but never would occur to me really.

€200 worth of All-for-One vouchers on a Hampers and Roses ticket that my late Granny gave me a few years ago. It was in the form of four €50 vouchers, one of which I used. My Dad bought the other three off of me 'cause he always uses those vouchers in hardware shops. I bought a little present for Gran afterwards, of course.

rolliepoley

My sister won 5000 when they first came out back in the eighties.

tacofries

bought 1 today, won 6euro. bought 2 more, won €5 and got 3stars. used the winnings plus a euro to buy 2 more. got another 3 stars on one, and another €5 on another. added a euro again and bought two more. Won €6 on one of them so bought 2 more! Won €5 on one of them so pocketed €2 and bought another one. no luck though! though I am entered into two holiday draws and am sending two tickets off for the big money game show,.. fingers crossed!! Great buzz scratching!!

Festy

I won 3.50 once

candy-gal1

Won quite a few times on them, usually just a few quid each time, but still

I seemed to get more on the lotto though, but not for a few years at least, I think the most I got was about 50 or so euro which was my dads winning ticket and we shared
