Does Anyone know what the Z's and B's are on scratchers??Reply
Thanks! Next time I get a winning ticket, I'll scratch there and see if it matches the amount like that... Also, I'll ask the retailer next time I'm there. Some these games, like Bonus Crosswords and Monopoly, are such a pain to figure out if you win it would be good to have an easy way to check. Anyone out there have a handle on Virginia codes?

If you found a winning lottery ticket what would you do?Reply
Unless the back of the ticket is filled out, how would anyone know? I'vwe found a few winning tickets, (actually scratches that were never rubbed off completley), good for a dollar or two. Those who play scratch games, know the secret codes that tell the winners from the losers. In Pa, it's the number or numbers inside the parentheses. (sometimes there's letters that spell out , like E-N-T for entry or C-L-M for claim (a fellow who's wife won big, showed me that one). In Del. and md., they

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
So awhile back someone mentioned something about a weird $10 Crossword Roll where every ticket on the roll alternated between a winner and loser and they basically came out even. A few weeks ago, when I stopped to fill up, I bought a ticket at the Petro BP off I-75/Exit 368. Ticket 2 was a loser, 3 was a $10 winner and I went ahead and bought no 4 which was a $20 winner so I got my money back. I was headed for work so couldnt play anymore. After work, I stopped at a conveinence store V-Mar

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
Hey spin, Glad to hear your 10K win on Gold 7's. It seems a player jut won $700K on that game in the past few days, so I guess there won't be any more in that for the next several days. I know I should scratch the winning numbers to match the numbers even for a losing code but just felt it would add to the injury..So saved them for later date. I hate that SRX, OIR and STN codes. I had a few $1K and $2K on 40th anniversary millions but nothing more lately. It is a good idea to stay away

Store Clerk Playing Unfair? Is This Legal?Reply
One day, I was at Winn Dixie cashing in my $100 winner on the $20 Monopoly, I saw a clerk from a Marathon Gas Station cashing in $885.00 In winners of Scratch-Offs, Her biggest win was $400 on Aces and 8's.....They should make it illeagl for them to Play Scratch-Offs, I mean, those Scratch-Offs could have been our winners, They need to enforce a policy that store clerks can't play the florida lottery. I went to get a $20 Gold Rush Ticket once and I saw that 2 of the codes were scratched off (

Massachusetts awards lottery prize to rightful ownerNews Story
For someone who said she only had $400 to her name before yesterday, Erika Schmitt is smiling at 35 times that amount after finally getting the $14,000 she won playing a Lucky Stars lottery game. This is a lot for me, Schmitt said yesterday after Joseph Sullivan, director of the Massachusetts State Lottery Commission, handed her a check. I'm going to get a haircut and a car. The 18-year-old Westborough resident waited more than a month for the money because a Westborough store clerk allegedly

Powerball lottery jackpot hits $200 millionNews Story
The Powerball jackpot for Saturday's drawing $200 million has once again grown large enough to draw new or infrequent players to ticket counters. The most popular lottery games are normally the $1 and $5 games that offer chances at prizes ranging from a few bucks to $1 million. Those are the heavy hitters for most state lotteries, generating as much as half of total sales. The customers start to change, though, when the multi-state Powerball game starts touting jackpots approaching $20

Woot Woot...Yoink
I was filling out a bet slip when I happened to look over in the trash and there were two $50 scratchers in there. I pulled them out and whoever bought them did not scratch the ticket off they just scratched the bar codes and scanned them. Both losers but I'm betting they did not enter them into the second chance giveaway. I wanted to enter that second chance draw but wasn't going to buy the $50 tix to do it unless I won $500. Well now thanks to someone who didn't want ther
