Just curious if anyone gambles and gets luck. (like a good cash prize)
My friend and I have one of those millionare raffle tickets and hope to win (we find out 2nite on the news)
*Update: my friend check our numbers on the phone and didnt win so our 2 chances had no luck
Also we have a starbucks friend who knew someone that bought $800 worth of the raffle tickets* (Dont know how the person did)
There another raffle next month, so we are trying again also it tax season, lol.
My biggest for scratchers (if i feel like spending) is $5-20

I wished for a winning lotto ticket, but everyone in Buffalo won also. So I only got like 15 bucks. How awkward...

Only people who play lottery tickets are poor people and people who can't do math.

How weird I saw this topic cause I'm on a lucky streak as of late. Last week my mom hit $400 on a $20 ticket and Tuesday I bought two scratchers. On the $5 ticket I won $100 and on the other $5 ticket I won $20. With that money I went to AC/DC last night in Pittsburgh, which was  ing amazing  |

I only buy 5 tickets once the jackpot goes over 100 million.

Man.. I have no luck on either of these things. I suppose I've never really gotten into lottery tickets, but I've had my share of scratch offs since I turned 18, and the only thing I've ever won was a free ticket.

Going for free, you must've had a huge smile on your face the entire night. That does kick ass! Biggest I've one is $40 off of two $2 scratchers. $20 on each. |

I remember buying powerball tickets every week when I turned 18 just because I could...but then I started to feel really old and pathetic so I stopped.
Although, if that sumbitch hits $200mil, my sorry ass is going to Wild Willies and buying a ticket.

I won 7 dollars on that Powerball thinger once.....I found a dollar in the bathroom a figured it was there for me to buy a ticket....so technically I won 6 bucks. I don't always play them, so there's no actually winnings vs. winnings here.
No raffles...I do meat raffles...usually win something.
My daughter won a gift certificate in a fishing contest once. It was for 10 dollars, she bought ice cream and candy...

Back when I was younger than 18, I would play totally illegally and win all the freaking time on scratch offs. But once I got old enough to buy them legally...luck ran out. I VERY rarely get on these days

Its a dream ticket out of whatever your doing Your ticked out of whatever you're doing is looking at you in the mirror every morning. Statistically, the majority of lottery winners are bankrupt within 10 years and their divorce rate is much, much higher than non-lottery winners. So much for a dream ticket. Seems more like a nightmare to me. |
