Scratcher tricks to successReply
I once saw a woman win $7500 on a scratch ticket.For three days the clerks at the store advised everyone that was buying tickets not to buy from that game because of the win.Finally the woman came back and bought the very next ticket...you guessed it...she won another $2500.My point is:You never know which ticket is going to be a winner. Wow.. three days later and nothing sold from a pack. We do not tell the shift behind us which pack got hit. We are there to move the packs.

Scratcher tricks to successReply
I have sold tickets for TN since the beginning. #6 does not apply to TN. Many of times the first -fifth ticket of a new roll has the $1000 winner on the $10 ticket and $500 on the Jumbo ticket. So skipping them will help assure you that you will not get that prize on that particular game.

Not just another day at work
Today at work , my co-worker was looking through the scratched tickets as she was dusting up the mess left by a huge crowd of people. She found a $3.00 winner on the table and brought it to the counter for me to cash in. We split what is found in the basket.. (Last week I carried tickets home and found $34 total to split with her) After I laid her half on the counter, I heard her gasp my name, I turned to find her in front of the terminal. She was pale. I went and took the ticket from her

POLL: Scratchers as giftsReply
We went to a dirty Santa party before Christmas. Hubby wanted to take $20 in scratch offs.. I didn't like it since there was good chance they would walk with only a few free tickets. I bought the tickets then included a $25 gift certificate to Chili's as perk. Sure enough the woman got only two free tickets. At least they will get to go to Chili's for a lunch.

averages in different statesReply
Ga is the main state to play. It is easier hit there.. MI is getting better and so is NC... (although, NC is only a once/a/day game...)

Would you Think...?Reply
It is a sucker's game. They can get you hooked. I felt sorry for all those people today losing money like they did.. I know one lady went through $400 before throwing her hands up and giving up. She could have had better luck in a casino somewhere.. or more relaxing time on a short vacation somewhere... Makes me mad.

I bet it does. One lady pulled 30 $2 Jumbos today... all on same roll and got nothing. We couldn't believe it so we double/triple checked her tickets.. Sure enough.. No winners in 20 tickets back to back... Next one pulled was for a ticket...

Would you think that a whole pack of $10 scratch-off would contain only one ticket winner? I witnessed that today at work.. Sad but true.. This was TN, Big Money Maker... Which should be called the World's Biggest Money Waster.
