Minimum purchase is now £100, but you do get 100 bonds, and therefore 100 chances to win, the more you buy. the better the chances get of winning!!

minimu is a hundred and in tens. So you can buy :

100
110
120
130
.
.
.

You cant hold more than 30K

the way around the 100 pound problem is to auto reinvest your wins. the lowest win is 50 so if you opt to reinvest instead of a 50 cheque you get 50 bonds.

Bought £500 earlier this year, within the first month I'd had a nice £50 win...more than I ever won on the lottery in all the years its been going !
They don't go up in value BUT they also don't loose value 'cept for the obvious monetery values.
