I never win anything my friend, so you're not on your own! There was a guy I worked with a few years ago and he used to win EVERYTHING..from Raffles, the Bonus Ball on the Lottery, you name it and he would win..and the annoying thing was, he didn't even need the money!! We have an expression over here "Money always goes to money!" and it's true!

Over here the National Lottery started about 1994 I think. Anyway, week after week me and my colleagues at work seemed to be parting with more and more of our cash and I was getting sick of it, to be honest. In the end, I said, "Look, we're not going to win anything so what's the point?" and I pulled out. After that they kept saying, "You've got to be in it to win it" but did they win anything? NOPE!

I'm not lucky when it comes to raffles. I guess winning in any raffles is not my luck. I believe that there are people who are born lucky when it comes to raffles and i knew some. I guess it's already written in their palm. If you're not lucky enough i guess you're lucky in some aspect.

Yes, likewise I never win in any raffle draw. And this coming Christmas there's a lot of raffle prizes that will be going during parties. I'm sure again I won't receive any prizes on it. That's life :)

I guess raffles aren't meant for the both of us. I try to lessen the anticipation on this kind of game. It only give heart break

hi chipesterkhan don't feel bad as I am one of the unluckiest people when it comes to raffles, I swear evem if there were 10 people and ten prized and I won a minor prize something wou ld show up to where I cou ld not get the prize. I did win once in one of those things where the one thousandth person in a grocery store lineup wins a prize and lol of co urse it was just the same amount as my groceries so I guess I was twenty dollars to the good as the prize covered the maount of my groceries cost and I got to keep my own money. but other than that I just to not win raffles.

Me too! I'm even worse than you, sometimes there would five of us and four prizes, and I'd be the lucky one whose name will not get picked. I've learned to live with it, and refuse to invest my hopes and dreams on them. I don't even play lotto.

Considering the number of prizes and the number of participants, there are bound to be some who won't get anything, specifically 18, and you're one of those. You have 2/5 or forty percent chance of winning and clearly the odds were against you.
