$36 million Mega Millions ticket sold in Florida goes unclaimedReply
I think online sales would help a lot. In the cases where people were contacted via email, at least the winner eventually realized it was legitimate. It costs the lottery far less time and effort and money to reach a known person vs advertising for an unclaimed ticket.

$36 million Mega Millions ticket sold in Florida goes unclaimedReply
I doubt online sales will solve the problem of forgotten leading to expired tickets. I have read that some people play online have gotten emails from lottery HQ, telling them that they won but they thought the email was a scam. Also too, there are people that do not bother to check their emails either. There is no guaranteed way to stop the now epidemic of expired lottery tickets.

We may seem stupid, but we're not CRAZYReply
We'll probably never get the actual percentage of total QP sales or even when a jackpot is won. It seems more likely self picks have a majority when the Jackpot is $20 million and under $100 million because many play their pet numbers regardless of the jackpot size.

$1.76 billion Powerball jackpot won by one ticket sold in CaliforniaReply
Texas actually only sells about half of the tickets that California does per draw. The state that is 2nd to California in when it comes to sales is Florida. And, California still sells 60% more tickets per draw than Florida.

$1.2 BILLION: Powerball jackpot is 3rd-largest in game historyReply
I didn't look at what day the last time it was the same amount. But the last time it was 1billion the sales were roughly 100 million more than this past draw. Overall I think it's just Jackpot fatigue and everything else costing to much money.

Fl Lottery's Mega Money: Who misses the game?Reply
The FL Lottery discontinued the Mega Money game due to slow sales. They replaced it with a harder version called Lucky Money. After 4.5 years, the game was put to rest in 2019 and replaced with Jackpot Triple Play. The later being a very different game.

$1.55 BILLION: Biggest Mega Millions jackpot ever to be drawn TuesdayReply
I am honestly surprised how low sales have been once it got to a Billion. A 30 million bump was just a rounding error when the pots first started getting to a billion.
