I'm part of a syndicate of 20. I spend 2 per week in the syndicate. I also spend another 6 per week doing my own numbers. Win regular minimum payouts in the syndicate - not much from my own numbers

I recently cut back to about $5 per week, except that now MM and PB are _both_ big.

Fast eddie. The amount I spend usually depends on whether or not I have a hunch or not. Sometimes the hunches pay. Sometimes not! Normally the latter of the two. I never play heavy on a number. Like you see people playing $3 or more on a certain number. Me. I'm just happy to get something from the lottery. Sometimes I play every day, sometimes when the money is spreading thin, I may not even play a number. But, I do play the lottery 4-5 times a week. Both midday and evening numbers.... [ More ]

i usually spend nothing a week. i wait for big jackpots then spend 100-350 depending on how likely i think it will be hit or continue to roll. for that dec 25 drawing for ~ 300 mil i spend around 350 and if the pots around 200 then i spend around 100-150.

I spend $35 a week on a 6/36 game and another $5 per draw on a 5/31 game when the jackpot gets larger. I also spend $5 per draw on a 6/49 and Powerball when the jackpots are larger. I would say I spend $50-$75 a week total.

I spend $15 to $20 a week. This equates to 30 to 40 lines.Equivalent of $US8 to $US10.

Not taboo at all. In fact, if you do a search (click Search in the Blue Bar above and type spend), you'll see there's been some discussion about this before

I hope this subject is not taboo? I'll answer first since I'm the one wondering. I spend about ten or twenty dollars a day. I dont know if this a lot or a little. I guess it depends on what people can afford to spend? If I've offended anyone, I'm sorry. I'm just trying to gain a little perspective because in my everyday life I'm surrouded by non-lottery players. Thanks for your insight. fast eddie
