The cost of playing the Lotto is about to go up.
The Journal reports that the National Lottery are about to raise the price of the €3 for the minimum two-line play to €4, while if you want Lotto Plus it’s going to cost you a fiver.
Not only that, but two extra numbers are going to be added to the selection grid, meaning that your odds of winning the jackpot are almost 11 million to one.
This, quite frankly, is what we think of this news.
The changes come into effect from September 3rd, with National Lottery CEO promising, “a more exciting game and bigger jackpots for our players which will generate more funds for good causes.”
That’s called spin, lads.
