I don't, but my parents get lottery tickets often.

I do mine weekly online; all automated.

Yeah I do. I won £50 last week.... but I spent about £18.

But one day, I will win something with more than one 0 on the end 🤞

I hope you do Kate, it would please me to know someone so nice hits the jackpot 🤗

Occasionally.

Yes.

Nah. It is a tax for dumb people.

I used to but rarely anymore.

well , if you enjoy it , knock yourselves out.

For me, the astronomical odds and therefore realisation I'll never win takes the fun out of it.
I dont think most people can even conceive how amazingly improbable 1 in 139,838,160 (euro odds) is!

and saying "hey - someones got to win it " , shows total obliviousness to the above.
