Lottery Vending Machines
The machine I went to today had a $5 credit! I went and got my carrots and went back and it was still there, so obviously someone walked away. I went ahead and used it. I felt bad because I would be very upset if I got home and realized I left that much in the machine -- that pays for my tickets until Saturday. 1. If I win the jackpot, should I advertise and offer to share it with whomever can tell me how much and where they left their money? 2. If someone in Boise wins the next jackpot, h

Canadian man loses $27 million lottery jackpot by 7 secondsReply
Hum, I wonder if this gambling man will move to a different province in Canada that still prints out same-day draw tickets only? I don't know of any states' lottery retailers that do that here in the good 'ole U. S. of A.. However, to attempt to fix an abundant anger situation, some vendors used to unplug their lottery machine terminals come 9PM and say something like: Sorry the machine is down, please come back tomorrow after 6AM. But, the 'to-the-wire impulse folks' got upset about that met

Georgia Lottery Scratch OffsReply
I swear I will give this up for good one day! Dabbled a little today and had a decent day. Bagged these below. Different stores of course. 100X was the 1st ticket out of a vending machine. Same QT machine I snagged the $500 Cash Spectacular a few weeks ago. The Cash Spectacular win took a little work. Played the last two off a roll then played the first one off the next roll and got this $500, ticket #000.

I have been taken to the cleaners the last week ! Can't hit anything ! All I have is one good story from today. I was at a Stop Shop (Mass) buying the $30 and $20 tickets. Mostly 100X Multiplier as I bought 7 losers in a row and was chasing. I was buying a ticket, walking around the corner to a table, scratching them (discarding losers) and walking back to the machine. Next thing I know the customer service lady is digging through the trash looking at my tickets!!! I was like WTF ???? So Im on m

Connecticut Lottery launches 5 Card CashReply
I'm not talking about when she hands the ticket back, look at appx 41 seconds in the video,when the lady asks for a ticket,the machine spits it out and the clerk hands it to her.There is no sound . I bought 4 of these this morning on my way into work and immediately looked at them.I had a pair of kings(which was a $3 'instant' winner) and the machine made no noise saying that I won anything when he handed me the tickets.

$586 MILLION: Mega Millions jackpot climbs toward a new recordReply
Good luck, Jill. I tried to buy tickets this morning when I stopped for gas but their machine was down. Either that was a sign or it'll make for a great story when I win. I tried to buy tickets from a particular place at a particular time but their machine was down. So the next day I went somewhere else and they sold me the winning ticket. I would sincerely like to thank the first place for not having a working machine which allowed me to buy the right ticket at the right time somewh

Does anyone know where I can find the scratch off game called "Lucky $1000 a Week for Life"?
This is not to be confused with the game called $1000 a week for life (without the word Lucky at the front) Its a seperate game with the same top prize. The game is still active and there is 1 top prize left. I've visited most of the stores close to me (I live in Margate, FL) and nobody has it. I even called a few Publix stores close to me in advance to ask if they had it. The customer service lady at one of the stores said they have it in the ticket vending machine so I went to that Publix, but

I was given 2 draws for Megamillions what does this mean?Reply
I've had clerks tell me their scanner was malfunctioning all day and suggested if I had to use a play slip, I should go to another store. The problem isn't simply running the play slip through the machine, but malfunctions in the scanner causing the tickets to be printed incorrectly. The problem we're discussing is when the machine prints multi-draws. If you want to play $5 worth of QPs, fill out a play slip, and have no problem when the clerk asks you for $100 because the machine incorrectly

Hey LONE RANGER - how's it hangin' ? LOL - a creased ticket might be from the roll dispenser if it's one that's upright on the counter - even the one under the counter - but out of the machine there is no monkey business and that's why I buy more from the machine - sometimes the dispenser creases a ticket as it gets pulled out. I remember one place owned by a towelhead - I bought 20 $200MS - the guy folded them around a few times and counted quckly .... I went out to the car to tear them apart a
