Today I saw that two prizes would be drawn in the lottery and decided to take a chance and buy tickets .... I spent 240 points .... And of course I won nothing ... only once I managed to win after buying tickets ... I probably won’t do it anymore

240 points does not mean much and the chances are very low to win a prize. Divide 10,000 to 240 and see what the chances are. You can lose the prize even if you buy 4000 points or 5000. Don't be upset and think logically. It's free to calculate your chances.

I understand very well that my chances of winning were very small .... But that is not the point .... the fact is that once again I buy tickets and points are not used as they should ... they just disappear from me .... therefore probably in order to save money I do not need to hope for a miracle but just accumulate points

well,you even had less chances with this 240 tickets in yesterdays draw,even we had two prizes to get!you would have more chance if we had 1 prize,because you would have less tickets in draw,but now you had more then 10000 tickets and you chance was very low!so this is nothing strange!
I tried buying a ton of tickets once, and ofc. didn't win What i have been doing for years is just buying 10 tickets for each draw.... It's not much but at least you're in, and 10 tickets could easily be earned per week by an active member!
If you're gonna try and buy your way to a prize, i certainly would think you'd need way more than 240 tickets though!
Thank you very much for your good wishes, but I will not participate in the next draw .... if I participate in the next draw only if I win tickets on the calendar ..... I definitely won’t buy tickets anymore .... Useless waste of points ..... once it worked and probably now you have to wait again 8 years to get a prize ... ha ha ha
