This thread was meant to be a bit tongue-in-cheek. Turned out I got the facts wrong--I misread something on the internet. I read they sell one for EUR 2 and seven for EUR 5 which would be at least slightly absurd pricing. That coupled with the fact that allegedly, nobody has ever won the EUR 1m price might have made for a lighthearted, low-content thread.

However, the truth is they sell one for EUR 2 and seven for the price of five, i.e., seven for EUR 10 which seems far less outrageous. So not much content left to get this thread started. All I have left are two alleged facts. One, it is claimed flight attendants are supposed to sell 25 cards per flight. Two, it is repeatedly alleged on the interwebz that nobody ever won the main price of a million euros.

Knowing how much the lovely Mr O’Leary court's publicity, you can bet your bottom dollar that had there been a €1,000,000 winner we would certainly have known about it! Without doubt it would have been plastered all over the media and announced ad nauseum on every flight

Sometimes they would do a buy one get one free offer. This meant 14 for EUR 10
