While you're five times more likely to be struck by lightning than win the lottery jackpot, this week the odds of you saving money when buying a ticket are stacked in your favour. You can get free entry or a 50 per cent discount to a selection of venues, so long as you present them with a lottery ticket, which can cost just £1.
Between March 18-26 you can get free entry to a large number of National Trust sites and the Aerospace Museum and get a 50 per cent discount on tickets for the SS Great Britain. Other offers such as free tours around the New Roman Bath Clore Learning Centre are available, but for one day only.
These offers are available across the country. Each adult must present a lottery ticket to get from the discount, the date of purchase is not important. While some venues require advanced booking, for the majority of the National Trust it is not needed.
