That's annoying, you can't buy just one ticket. That's just so rigged for the rich to win.

I keep hearing the phone competition on Planet Rock where you get "3 entries for the price of 1" or something like that.
Right, OK, but if you do that for everyone the odds don't change

I had a crew cab and there's a bit more to it than that, not as simple as you'd expect.

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
You can buy one ticket, specifically you can have a basket containing one ticket, but you have to put two tickets in the basket and then take one out.
I didn't complete the deal as I'm a tightwad.

Cheaper tickets but worse odds obvs. Might as well risk a £1.99 ticket? Fortune favours the bold and all that...

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
Not sure why, but i have 0 interest in the money ones, even if decent odds and cheap. The concept of getting a lovely built van, yeah i'm in.... but entering for a pile of money just doesn't excite me, even though i could of course use it to buy the van

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
I'm the opposite! I'm only in it for the cash and really only do the ones with cash alternatives, or a big cash prize.That sid I'd keep a motorhome. We was actually talking about this at work yesterday. My colleague loves supercars and enters the competitions for those only. I've tried to explain that even if he wins it'd bankrupt him trying to run one, but he says he'd run it until it went wrong then ebay it as salvage if needed!

£250k for the winner and 250k for the bookie, they must love those odds.

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
I suspect even the insurance on a supercar would bankrupt many people, if they can get insured at all
One of the employee scheme cars at work is £85k to buy normally, but there was a very brief period when you could have bagged one for 18 months at £400pcm.
Several of my colleagues started the application but quickly withdrew it when they realised what the insurance was like. And that's "only" 85k.
