What's the most money you won on a national lottery scratchcard?

My biggest win was IR£50 back when we had our own currency.Has anyone here won anything substantial -like a thousand euro or more? Really curious because I belive that kind of a win is probably rare.I think they save all the major prizes to give away on the TV game show which is just a glourious ticket sales promotion.

I only get them when I win the on the lotto, never buy them. Most I ever won was 5e.

100 pounds or punts back in the day.
Biggest lottery win was €2000 before last xmas.
edit, i hardly ever buy scratch cards, usually get them as minor lottery prizes.

€25.

i rarely buy them

PirateShampoo · 25-07-2009 11:03PM

50 euro not so long ago.

But i only buy them if i won money on the Lotto, then i keep letting the winnings ride.

I know someone who won a small Chinese child. That's what they told us anyway and where in the name of God would one get a small Chinese child out of?

Gumbo · 25-07-2009 11:35PM

got very excited when i went into the centra and the guy said sorry, we cant cash that here you have to go to the central office, and i said for fecks sake it probably only 50e or something and he said no, we can pay out up to 500e!!!!

really thought i won it there for about 20 mins

didnt check the numbers, just got them scanned by the machine.

I know someone local who won €5,000, and spent a grand that night on buying cider for the whole pub...some people! :rolleyes:

So as I suspected,no big winners.They obviously promise big cash on the scratch card but in actuality its given out on the TV game show.Another marketing ploy.Thanks to all who posted.

SV · 26-07-2009 02:54PM

On a scratchcard I've won 1000.

On a lottery ticket, 19000

Milky Moo · 26-07-2009 02:58PM

Technically I didn't win it but I found one on a desk in the post office with 6e on it...probably someone who buys loads and didn't think 6euro was worth cashing.

It bought me some lunch anyways.

You can't expect a hundred grand on a lot of them. The ratio of winners is available somewhere. I think one in every half million has a hundred grand on it. I'm too lazy to look but there is nothing hidden. The odds of getting a cash prize are clearly visible should you choose to look. No scam here.

Don't buy them myself but have won fifty pounds and fifty euro on ones stuck in birthday cards or when I've got three numbers on Lotto and got a scratch card. Girl I used to work with won five hundred on a card we stuck in her birthday card.

I won a good few times, but the winning prizes were another scratch card which I never won anything on.

entropi · 26-07-2009 04:01PM

Most i ever won myself on a scratchie was 25e, lotto was 60e+ cant remember exact figure. My dad won £5000 years ago on a scratchie though:)

I know someone who was on winning streak and another who won the lotto itself.

Saibh · 26-07-2009 04:02PM

My mam won £100 years ago - that is the most that anyone in our family won.

PhysiologyRocks · 26-07-2009 04:10PM

Two Punt, back in the good old days.

Once I thought I had 1000 Euro but one of the three was a 10000.

Boy was I disappointed.

26-07-2009 04:23PM

€4. But I've never bought one, just gifts.

Maddison · 26-07-2009 04:39PM

Think about 25 pounds in our own Irish money
