SC Lottery offers refunds for some multi-draw ticketsReply
That's cool they are doing this but what idiot would get a refund? Even though I think what Powerball and Megamillions is doing with the jackpots is not cool, the only prize being affected is the top prize. I mean are you really going to be mad if you spent $2 and won $20 million instead of $40 million?

Mega Millions to adjust starting jackpot amount, eliminate minimum increasesReply
Tired of the high ticket prices of the Megamillions and Powerball and crappy odds when they added more numbers, now they are both lowering their jackpots I am about ready to be done with them. People need to stop buying their games and force them back to the old $1 tickets with the better odds. Now the Powerball has been won it's down to $20 million and I think it's time to skip it.

I have a debit/credit card for almost all my Online purchases and use it to deposit money into KY Lottery fun club too. Try to keep it under $100 so if something happens I won't lose very much. The KY Lottery allows up to three bank accounts for deposits and one for withdrawals. I believe there are about ten Online instant games that have jackpots over $100,000.

What are the odds they will combine mega millions and Powerball. I can't see either game surviving with such low jackpots and high ticket prices

Declining lottery sales prompt more Powerball jackpot changesReply
I'll continue to play because our Florida state lotto pales in comparison to MM/PB jackpots. I bought two PB tickets for tonight's draw. Anyone else?

Compared to past similar PB jackpots, sales are about half and MM is about 20% lower. IMO they should advertise the cash value and use the annuity an collecting option. Most players take the cash in both games.

The best option would be to combine Mega-Millions and Powerball into a single game. Drawings twice a week and $1 per wager. If you have all players wagering on a single game the jackpots would grow bigger, faster. Everyone would be a winner.

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
I agree with everyone above. They definitely should do appointments for larger wins. I think we're going to notice more unclaimed jackpots as tickets sell because people are going to hold on to their monster wins. The top prizes remaining is going to be very misleading...

We have two dueling jackpots competing for limited dollars. Four nights a week. I'm afraid one either PB or MM will not make it if COVID-19 conditions persist. That may be the new normal.

Coming soon to a lottery near you?
Now that PowerBall and MegaMillions are going to be cutting their jackpots and rollovers, how soon will it be until one or more states decide to cut their annuity payments that they are making to players who have already won?
