Yesterday, the lady in front of me won $500 on a ticket. She had a couple of $50 pairs and the rest were $100 pairs adding up to $500. The store clerk hung it up immediately showing the winning amount so that people would be influenced to buy it. The ticket number was #30. What's funny is that every time I went to the store, I would look at the game and see that it always had 30 tickets there and kept wondering when somebody would buy one.

The lady was VERY nice and paid for my numbers and for the other person's numbers that was in the store at the time.

The question is, "How many did she buy?" 

I would agree, It is foolish to buy a ticket with a big winner on the same roll.  I would not buy too.
