Santa Claus is coming to town - It's the 1st December guys!

Christmas is just round the corner my lovely lottery lovers and we thought it'd be fun to show you some of the most extravagant luxuries around at this time of the year. I guess if you do win the lottery this week it would only be right to have a right royal affair for the family this crimbo.

So lets kick things off with a classic...The almighty advent calendar! It is the festive season and we all know the first thing we do when it hits December 1st, open up the first door of course to see what's in store - I guess we're all still big kids at heart. How about this year you try an advent calendar a little out of the ordinary of your usual choccy filled one! Harrod's are stocking a £9,000 advent calendar, but sorry to tell you guys they'll be no chocolate behind the doors this year (probably good for the waistline anyways LOL). However, this calendar has 24 delightful ornaments behind each door and you certainly won't want to get rid after december 25th, this baby will be worth a fortune in years to come!

Right, so we have the advent calendar, so what's next? Well the tree of course, a tree is the ultimate centrepiece of any home in the festive period. And here we have the most outrageous beauty around, it stands 13ft tall in the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi, unveiled at costing a whopping £11M it certainly does look the part. This beauty is decorated with 181 diamonds, sapphires, pearls and various other precious stones! Wouldn't it be great to have this work of art standing tall in your house...However, I'm sure unless you have a huge mansion with 14ft ceilings it's not quite going to fit in, maybe a downsize is required guys!

The absolute showstopper of the 25th December is that gigantic dinner we all delve into, leaving us all feeling sluggish and tired after, but oh we do it again year after year! Well this year, London Chef, Ben Spalding, has created the most lavish menu for those willing to spend BIG bucks! For just four people it will cost a whopping £125,000 to dine, this menu includes a £37,000 bottle of Piper Heidisieck 1907 Champagne, £6,000 gold leaf and Almas caviar at £5,000 - these are just the tip of the iceberg for this extravagant feast. And Spalding is still keeping ever so humble around the time for giving, he will be donating 80% of his fees to Cancer Research UK and Hospitality action.

And finally, what's a good Christmas without a few prezzies ay, but we all know how it is to buy for certain people year after year. So why not get them a mixture of bits and bobs, how does a hamper sound? The most expensive hamper around is a grand £85,000 - this includes £6,000 caviar, the most decadent truffles costing £500 and an array of exquisite condiments, what's not to like?

What to do:

See the Nutcracker
If you to do it properly you must go to the New York City Ballet.

WOW we're in! It's set to be a truly enchanting experience.

Have you heard? There is HUGE £73M Superdraw 06/11/15!

It’s BIG. And it’s BACK! The EuroMillions Superdraw is set to go live November 6th 2015 with a guaranteed jackpot sum of £73M (€100m)... Gosh we can’t even imagine winning a sum like that, what on earth would you spend it on?! The last major Superdraw was 15th June 2015 with a whopping £93m won entirely by a lucky UK ticket holder - could a lucky UK ticket holder be that lucky again?

The biggest prize won through the Superdraw currently stands at £161m, won by Colin and Christine Weir in 2011 and it’s fair to say they certainly enjoyed splashing the cash. The weirs’ purchased a £3.5m mansion after just 10 minutes of viewing, talk about impulsive ay?!

Well incase you’re stuck for choice about what to spend the millions on if (when) you win, we’re here to help:

1. How about a home away from home - does anybody fancy a lush pad in the big apple, yes you got it New York. You can get a grand penthouse apartment spread over 3 floors, including 5 bedrooms, amazing roof deck area (with a Jacuzzi…ooo la la!) and not to mention the glorious views over central Manhattan! And it’s an absolute steal at £21m, and that still leaves you £52m to play with!

2. According to Camelot the average lottery winner purchases 5 cars after they win the BIG one! So what would be your pick...Mercedes, BMW, Range Rover, let's be honest when you’ve won £73m you could have all 3 if you’d like?! Well for a cool £125,000 you can have a top of the range Range Rover - with swish leather interior, TV screens in the back for the kids & a matte exterior, what’s not to like?!

3. If you fancy something a little out the ordinary, how about purchasing an acre or two of the moon? For just £16.75 you can buy an acre of the moon (£31 if you want your deeds in a gold frame), it’s fair to say £73m would get you a fair few acres i reckon!
