Christmas
Lottery tickets on sale
Tickets for the 2013 Channel Islands Christmas Lottery are on sale in shops, garages, and other outlets around the islands.
This year the tickets are £2 - and they include TWO separate numbers for the lottery draw. The first prize jackpot rises as more tickets are sold. It is starting with a minimum of £300,000 (last year it reached £686,000).
There is also the scratchcard (which has been improved this year) that offers plenty of instant cash prizes - up to £5000.
As always, the Christmas Lottery is important to local charities, as all of the proceeds from tickets sold in Guernsey will be given to the Association of Guernsey Charities to distribute to local projects and good causes. The 2012 Christmas draw raised £190,589 for local charities.
UPDATE
06 December: New record for the jackpot... £820,000. Tickets selling fast, but still available from all usual outlets.
