Holiday trash tactics again. You'd think they would be showering us with symbols and triple times ticket costs - so when do we exactly PLAY these Christmas tickets? Now or around Christmas...I tried a few and was not impressed. The $1 tickets are scented, couldn't believe it and the $5 tickets remind me of the old $10 tickets. Bah Humbug. I'm staying with 20x the Money and Big Money. dub wtg on the wins you got..not too bad but you're right, you'd think a present...just ONE...could

I think I'm done until I can build up for a big Platinum Crossword scratch off day. Only $13 from Wegmans and Wawa today. From Wegmans: Hot Hand - #003 loser, #002 loser, #001 loser, #000 finally hit for $10 (rare #000 win) From Wawa: Monopoly #054 won $3 I'll come back when I can finally be able to have the $5 game scratch-a-thon. Good luck to all.

Wheel of Fortune- 2nd Chance Promo- FloridaReply
Honestly I don't know why as I said it was the first time I even thought about trying scratch offs. I heard it was a brand new game and had 15$ in my wallet after my purchase so I just tried it out, ended up winning 25$ off those 3 tickets so I got more. Basicaly that was the downward spiral for me, I kept up with what I spent and at first I would either even up or be down about $25, and then somedays I would be up $25. Then the addiction of the play $25 win some back kept going, and when

The lottery headquarters MUST have sent a bunch of winning books out to my area, SW Florida near the Gulf. Maybe they shoot a bunch out based on demographics, because I have not heard of anyone else, except my bud who put me on to FMC and was winning as many as I did. It was hot !! Like I said, the flurry lasted about 3 weeks and back to ho hum scratching. You could buy tickets from almost any place in town and hit four or five $500's a in random buy of 50 tickets. I hit I think about 5 or 6 STA

Thank you James! I don't keep track of things except for here. I probably should to get a handle/idea of win/loss but just never did on paper, as in record-keeping. Without going into it too much, I'm at a great advantage from some good fortune that happened awhile back so I'm just able to play as I like to play without thinking about it too much. The $5k was additional good fortune but I gave that to someone else. I hope to see the luck start spreading around big time to all the pos

Rate your state's scratch offs
In terms of evaluating your state, I mean frequency of wins you have, prize amounts you win,. grand prizes available, the odds of winning, and that kind of thing. I'll rate them each for PA, and then come up with an overall PA rating. Frequency of wins I have - below average Prize amounts I win - below average ($100s are way down for me) Grand prizes available - average (PA is a big state, so they offer a decent amount) Odds of winning - average (middle-tier odds aren't bad) Ov

New member - Saying HI
So I have been always looking at this site as I am an excessive lottery player and I enjoy reading about people's wins as it gives me hope. I usually play $20-50 a day depending on my financial situation and I am partial to $5 and $10 tickets. Well I am having an awful time figuring out how to insert an image?! I guess you have to be premium. The ticket I played tonight was the Mass $10 Monopoly, been one of my favorite tickets as I have seen a few $100 and $200 hits on it. I uploaded it to

Played through $20 Florida Millionaire's Club roll todayReply
James1, ugh is right. Sorry to hear this, I know I'm opting out on some Florida Millionaire for a while. Since we have seen two of the 10 1Million prizes hit and one of those was near me in Tampa, I should have waited longer before attempting Florida Millionaire. Not likely to get another 1Mil winner near Tampa. I really need to find someone to split some buys with. I think playing maybe out of the machine is a good idea with someone, play a ticket until it hits a winner then stop, maybe try

Have you or anyone you known tipped clerks that have helped you select a winning instant ticket?Reply
That is crazy, expecting a tip. I have no idea if it is customary. I am going to try and read clerks from now on. My idea was never to give away money just because I won some. I was just thinking that I might find a few clerks that I can trust, with the idea being that if they help me win, I will give them a little. That way they may be less likely to dishonestly sell me a ticket that they reasonably should know is going to lose. They always have customers that play with no strategy in mind to s

Lucky and unlucky Scratch-off ticket numbersReply
I am glad that you did end up making some money today. I spent $50 on Jingle Jumbo Bucks. I very stupidly purchased another ticket, 026, after I the previous ticket, 027 won $25 yesterday. Shame on me. I guess that I still made $5 off those two tickets, so that is good. I lost on tickets 001, 000, 029 and 028 on this game at another retailer. I think I will go back and see if 027 is still there. Kings and Queens 031 and 030 both lost. My impression of that game is that it has fewer winners, but
