Do both.

You'll probably need the PB winnings to pay the taxes on the house.

Never thought of doing that. I think I am going to start though. Anything under a hundred dollars I think will work for that. I alway purchase more tickets with the few I do win on and they usually lose. Might as well save them up and check 46 tickets on a huge jackpot.

If I relied on my winnings to pay for it, I'd be lucky if I could buy a single ticket.

I'm debating whether to buy a St Jude's Dream Home raffle ticket, or go all out on this draw. Better odds for St Judes. Better pay off for PowerBall.

I do not save my winnings because I have not won on powerball in weeks if not months. But I only buy two or three lines and usually I match one or two numbers. So no prize money to get on those times but I budget $100 each month to play powerball mainly and then mega millions in times like these when the jackpot is over $100 million. Good luck on winning the big one I bought $10 without powerplay this time.-weshar75

Well I would agree, it is easy to win! ($4 or $7 that is LOL)

I win these little amounts quite often, but never 5+0 or 5+1

i don't play very much because it's too easy to win.

Since this PB is now above $500 mil, I'm going all in purchasing 46 tickets. I've saved all my winners from that time which total $92. I know 46 tickets will only increase my chances by a very, very minuscule amount, but any little bit helps right? Does anyone else save their winners to cash them in on more tickets for monster drawings like this
