We're planning to get lottery tickets for everyone's favours. We had these at one of our friend's weddings last year and liked the idea. we didn't win anything but it was fun none the less!

Anyway, does anyone know how far in advance you can buy tickets? I know you can Direct Debit a whole bunch for yourself, but we want to go into a shop somewhere and buy 70 odd lucky dips (or 7 tickets from 10 shops..!), far enough in advance that we can tie them all up and get them all sorted etc.

Anyone done this or planning to?

    From what I know, you can usually buy lottery tickets pretty close to the draw date, but shops don’t always let you purchase that many in one go far in advance. It might be worth speaking directly to a few retailers ahead of time Cineby — if they know you’re planning to buy around 70 lucky dips, they may be able to prepare them for you or advise on timing.

    That’s such a fun idea—honestly even when you don’t win, it turns into a little shared moment for everyone which makes it worth it. As far as timing goes, most lottery tickets (especially draw-based ones) are only valid for a specific upcoming draw, so you usually can’t buy them too far in advance—typically just for the next draw or two. Scratch cards might be a bit easier if you want something you can prep well ahead of time. Visit Website

    From what I’ve looked into, you can buy tickets in advance, but there are a couple of practical limits. Most lotteries let you buy entries for multiple future draws (often a few weeks ahead), but in-store retailers usually just print tickets for specific upcoming draws rather than “open-ended” ones . Flixer So if you’re planning to prep them nicely, you’ll want to choose which draw date you’re tying them to.

    Love this idea—we actually thought about doing something similar! From what I’ve looked into, you can usually buy tickets for multiple future draws in one go, even in shops, so you should be able to get them sorted a few weeks in advance without too much trouble.

    Might be worth popping into a local shop and asking if they can handle a bulk order like that though—70 lucky dips is a decent amount so they may appreciate a heads-up! Splitting it across a few shops like you said is probably a smart backup plan too. Visit Site
