Florida Fantasy-5 PlayersReply
You did the correct thing! I never refuse a ticket printed in error. I'd have paid the 20 bucks too. Maybe the Advance Play box for two drawings had something in it (it was dirty) that the machine interpreted as the box being checked? I dunno...just a wild guess. I had something like that happen to me but it was with the number boxes. The clerk told me I had 6 numbers in one panel but could only choose 5. I took a look at the play slip and one number that I didn't choose had a dark spot in t

Printing Lottery Slips in OntarioReply
hi, cant provide you exact link, but, for sure printing feature is available for ontario and other provinces/states lotteries, including powerball, megamillions, picks, 649's, and other popular lotteries. keep looking on google search with right search words from my experience any printer inkjet/laser works well, but has to be good loading paper mechanism, specially if you want to print a bunch and load pack of slips in printer, because slips are glued together from factory they may load 2-

Pennsylvania: 7/1 - 7/31/2022Reply
I had a $1.00 so I did the quick pick button for the evening Pick 3 and guess what Quick Pick did pick what numbers ? To the shock of my life ... The Quick Pick number is 666 with the WildBall option included in the Quick Pick ticket. If I have extra money then I make my own picks alongside the W.B. ( always include the W.B. ) but if I don't have enough money then I use the Quick Pick + W.B. button at the new electronic vending machine. I almost never use the old lottery machines in town.

Happy Days are here againReply
Thank you Cape. And yes, I agree that 2% is significant. So either I have just been having some bad luck or the lottery has pushed a good bit of the $500s to lower in the pack. But that wouldn't make sense. It's still +EV chasing the $500. I won $630 today. Not the greatest but still decent. First pack of the day was full pack and hit on ticket #028. Best win in a while. Second pack was on #027 when I arrived. It's not a machine I had ever seen chased before so I took a chance on it. #023 was $1

Florida lottery winner discovers unemployment benefits collected by imposterReply
Going to have to read this for the third time. Wondering if it is a case of stolen ID? To make readers smile a man got change for a $100 an hour ago to play scratch tickets from the lottery machine. Mr. Nosey, me, said why don't you play Mega Millions? He just looked @ me and left. Came back in five minutes later and showed me and my dog (like she cared) his $5K win! Today is National Rescue Dog day which Clarabelle is. Didn't rescue a dog today but did rescue a $10 Mega Millions

California Scratch OffsReply
So I've been out of state for a bit and got back just a couple days ago. My kinda similar story (albeit much less $ at stake) unfolded when I was at the grocery store (not the closest Publix market to me but one nearby) getting some stuff to restock after being away. Well, I'm at the automated checkout and am figuring I'll mark being back home by getting 2 $50 500X from the Lotto machine when done, one each from the two books they have in the machine. ...Well, the self checkout machine I

Happy Days are here againReply
Good times there indeed! Yep I see it listed now too. For sure sounds like the existing go-to game is better than the $10 one you mention, esp given approx 78% return on the usual one and so much concentrated $ vs 70% on the $10 one and having to chase more winning tickets. Not sure how things are there, but I find that the best, most consistently available to redeem $500 and up worth of tickets are lotto retailers that also cash checks. I have a couple such places near me with whom I've e

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
Hey MsBee18, believe it or not the two from this weekend were from a total of 4 tickets from 2 different machines on the same day. I rode my bicycle over to Merritt Island and stopped in the Publix there to get a bottle of water and essentially on an impulse bought 2 from the machine on the way out. #14 was a dud and #13 was the 10X $50. Later in the evening at my nearby Cocoa Beach Publix I drew another 2 from the machine there, and lo and behold one was the burst!! Even with the burst I po

Ghost in the machine? (Florida)Reply
it isn't possible for the machine to print this way. Apparently it is. AFAIK buying tickets is never foolproof. If you don't use playslips you're relying on the clerks to press all of the right buttons and none of the wrong buttons, and to hear your numbers correctly. If you do use a playslip you're still relying on the clerks to press all of the right buttons and none of the wrong buttons. There are probably fewer ways for them to screw things up when you use a playslip, but the playsli

Ghost in the machine? (Florida)
Very strange thing just happened which isn't even possible. I went to the store to get a few things and bought two tickets for tonight. Two tickets of 888. The clerk brings them to me and before he gets close to me he says 28 dollars please...lol I said what are you talking about, it should be 2 bucks, sure enough I saw the tickets, each one showed 14 dollars equalling 28 bucks. I said to him that I've never seen this before, and it isn't possible for the machine to print this way. He agreed,
