I've been just adding spare change (£30 or so) each month for the thrill as an alternative to throwing my money away with the lotteryWell done! I thought I'd done well with £100 on a £1,000 holding.With that holding you'd expect to win a prize (of any amount) about once every 3 years.And when you do win it is roughly equal odds it will be a £25, £50 or £100 win. Well not quite equal (see below).So you've hit lucky twice there, mainly in winning at all, but also in winning £100 not £25 or £50.
