Poll: Do you do the Lotto?

Could it be you or have you given up on the dream?

THE NATIONAL LOTTERY has said that its sales are in decline as the “very challenging” economic climate affects retail spend on both lottery tickets and scratch cards.

Last year, €379 million worth of Lotto and Lotto Plus games were played with 23 winners becoming overnight millionaires. That is a 1.4 per cent decline on 2010 figures.

So, today we’d like to know if the Recession has made you more or less likely to dream of hitting the jackpot.

Do you do the Lotto?
