Eight-Figure Jackpots Make Lotteries a 'Must-Play'


Updated: Monday 23rd July 2018

We have all heard about ‘must-watch’ television shows, ‘must-eat’- foods and ‘must-win’ sporting events, but lottery players are now beginning to use the term ‘must-play’ to refer to lottery draws which offer significantly larger jackpots than usual.

Why the Coming Jackpots are Special

Using that definition of the term, both the Friday EuroMillions and Saturday Lotto games this week are must-play events, because both of them will give players the chance to win eight-figure jackpots which make regular jackpots look paltry by comparison. The EuroMillions jackpot this Friday 8 December will be worth around £94 million, and the Lotto jackpot on Saturday 9 December will be worth an estimated £13.8 million.

Given the choice, we dare say that most lottery players would prefer to win £94 million than £13.8 million, but landing either of those prizes outright would be cause for massive celebration, and would allow the winner to embark on a comprehensive life makeover. Money can’t buy happiness, but it can certainly solve quite a few problems, as well as pave the way for happiness to follow, so how would you spend an eight-figure jackpot if your numbers were to come up this week?

Consider the Possibilities…

There are little over two weeks to go until Christmas, so if you were to make your jackpot claim quickly (download one of our free lottery apps so that you can check your numbers straight after each draw) you would have the cash in the bank in plenty of time to make the festive season extra special. 

Becoming a multi-millionaire takes some getting used to, so maybe an extended holiday would be in order. You could travel anywhere in the world without worrying one bit about the cost, and you wouldn’t even need to pack much, because you could shop for everything you need as you go. And if you wouldn’t fancy shopping at this time of year, you could simply hire a personal shopper to do the job for you!

When settled in your chosen location (consider taking a luxury cruise if you’d like to call at multiple destinations and be pampered at the same time) you can give some serious thought to your brand new future as a lottery jackpot winner. What kind of home have you always dreamed of living in? What kind of car would you drive? Would you continue working, or quit your day job in order to live the life of Riley? If you’d quit work, how would you like to spend your new-found free time?

Also think about how you might want to use some of your winnings to help others. Which friends and family members would you treat, and how? Which good causes might you choose to support? How would your lottery success help you to leave a trail of joy and happiness wherever you go?

Get Involved in the ‘Must-Play’ Games Today!

All of these questions might be hypothetical right now, but if you get involved in the ‘must-play’ lottery games over the next few days, you just might be considering them for practical purposes this weekend. Choose your numbers today to have a go at winning in the £94 million EuroMillions game this Friday, and good luck!
