Should You Buy Lottery Tickets Online?
Lottery tickets are sold in thousands of retail shops up and down the country. However, with more and more people making purchases online these days, is there a case for you to buy lottery tickets online?
The convenience of being able to buy your lottery tickets at the local supermarket should not be underestimated. For many people, a lottery ticket purchase is an impulse buy. Chances are that you are in the supermarket queue either to get a packet of cigarettes (do you still smoke? We won’t judge you!) or to stock up on milk or bread for the weekend. All of a sudden you remember it is Wednesday/Saturday and the jackpot stands at £xxx million! Well! You just have to get a lucky dip, don’t you?
Purchasing your tickets ‘in house’ so to speak is all very well of course, as besides the lottery tickets there is always an opportunity to pick up a scratchcard with its potential for ‘instant win’ gratification. However, as you can also buy scratchcards online from most major online lottery ticket suppliers, even this advantage is moot. Of course, buying your lottery tickets at your local mini-mart has some distinct downsides too.
Should You Buy Lottery Tickets Online or at the Mini Mart?
If you are the type of person that likes to buy at the till then probably you are the type of person that is always in a hurry or likes to leave things till the last minute. If this is you then your options are probably to buy a Lucky Dip. Lucky dip’s area great ‘fast food’ style purchase but your chances of winning a cash prize are severely limited by buying your ticket in this way.
The exact reasons why are the subject for another blog post but essentially as with anything else, planning ahead is the key to success. Of course, you could always try filling in the numbers manually at one of the lottery booths that can be found at most retail units but then again what if it is busy and you are in a queue?
What if you at the front of the queue holding everybody else up? What if you can’t remember the numbers you like to play or are struggling to locate your diary with them all written down at the bottom of your handbag? Suppose you have not been married very long and cannot remember your wife’s birthday? What if you have been married for 20 years and cannot remember your wife’s birthday? What if all the pens have run out of ink and all the assistants are busy?
OR…
What if you just buy lottery tickets online with a subscription and save yourself the stress of last-minute impulse purchases and just get yourself some cigarettes instead?
