NFriday Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 No- I only buy lottery tickets maybe once or twice a year when the jackpot is crazy high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosiesmom Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 I do buy the Lotto now and then, sctach offs maybe once a year, and the powerball or mega millions, once a year or so. Its the poor man's tax. Poor return on the dollar I think. But I was surprised once and won $100 on a $5 scratch off. Rare for me. Usually, I just lose.

episemion Posted April 21, 2018 Report Share Posted April 21, 2018 Been buying lottery tickets for at least 20 years. At present , I but a Lotto ticket for each drawing , several Take 5 , and $12 in scratch-offs each week. I will only buy Megamillions or Powerball when the prize is way high. I have filled-in cards that I use for the Lotto and Take 5 ones. As far as wins go , I generally win free plays along with smaller cash prizes ($1 , $2 , $5) on the scratch-offs , but have had wins of $10 , $20 , $40 and $60. Largest Lotto wins have been in the $25 area. On Take 5 , in addition to $15 - $25 cash wins and free plays , I have won twice for 2nd tier prizes ($389 , don't recall the other). Also won $150 on Megamillions once. I also play a few of the online free lotto sites that allow NY players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosiesmom Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Our state squandered all the earnings from the lottery that was to go to the schools, so I am usually hesitant to buy tickets because of that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
