Puna, that is a good idea, but I don't know how people would/could "chip in". Suggestions? PayPal or such? I did it last year for/with about 4 other friends and we won a whopping 50 Euros or something. Of course I spent like 200 Euros for the multiple tickets, though.
Saludos, MadridMan

MM, can folks here in the US play El Gordo or is it just for residences? Also wonder how to collect the winnings. Well, i guess if you hit the big one getting there wouldn't be a problem! lol

Well, I'll be home alone this holiday season. My boys will be spending the holidays in Hawaii, staying with a group of friends for 10 days. I'll be working on Christmas & New Year's days. It sounds bleak but there's reasoning behind the madness! Go in at 4:00am off at noon, working on my weekend plus the holidays...caching! The rest of the day will be spent with my mom and family here in LA enjoying some great food. That's all I need.

OsoMajor, I'm pretty sure anyone can buy tickets online for El Gordo at http://www.elgordo.com/ . Not sure how it works, however, and if they have to mail tickets to your home. Not really sure. I'm sad to say/know that I'll be just touching down in Madrid on the morning (and at the time of the start) of the National Lottery on December 22nd. I LOVE to watch that on TV every year and this may be the last year in its traditional "state" as the Spanish National Lottery Commission will be partially privatized by next year so there may be some visible changes then. We'll all wait and see. I didn't even buy my lottery tickets this year!!! ARGH!!! My Christmas will be as usual, spent in Madrid with "family" and friends on holiday/vacation. Saludos, MadridMan

I went online and bought a ticket, its easy to do, plus you can do it in English. They keep hold of the ticket for you, and if you win , you can arrange a bank transfer with them.
