    Has it been done before?,

    Well the most I ever won was £50 about 15 years ago, I done a competition about that time in one of the Red labeled papers and I won 50 scratch cards.
    I remember I hadn't a shilling at the time, so myself and the girlfriend sat down and scratched for our lives. We ended up with 2 sets of 3 stars and a £2 win, I had to post the 2x3 stars and the winning card for £2 which cost £1.20 for post, so I was in profit of a grand total 80p...

    how have you done?

    I've won a few 50's back in Wales, a couple of mates of mine won 25,000STG, they were goin out on the piss on a Friday night, Gary went to the shop 2 doors from the pub to get some smokes and bought 2 cards, went back in the pub and scratched them.

    They both pissed there 12.5k up the wall

    Won €50 a few times but the thing that really sickens me is that myself and a mate used to work on a forecourt of a busy petrol station and did a lot of car washes where we split the tips.
    One day a new role of scratch cards came in so we said we'd keep buying until we won something. Must have spent about €30 and nothing and they usually pay out or at least give a free ticket for every 5 you sell. Shut up shop at 10pm.

    It re-opened 7.30am, someone had won €5000 by 9am :(

    I won 50 euro last year on a scratch card. I immediately went out & spent the money on an antique doll.

    I said to the girl at the counter it was for my mother but it wasn't....
