Results for the Illinois Lottery rip off $2 Chicago Cubs instant game (bought at three different locations)
(037) LOST (061) LOST (109) LOST (074) LOST
I think it's time to boycott these Cubs tickets for two reasons, 1. the most I've won on them is $4.00 and 2. The Cubs just plain stink (I'm a Cubs fan) and I can't buy a product that promotes a Double A team right now. BOYCOTT THE CUBS TICKETS! I always hear that the "Life" and 2nd chance drawing tickets are bad. Not sure if your Cubs are 2nd chance or just Grand Prize tickets. | | |

Well, while buying all my jackpot tickets for the week, I decided to try a couple of the $5 Power Ball scratchers. #74- loser. #75- $100. Biggest win ever for me on a scratcher, but I hardly ever play them. CAN'T WIN IF YOU'RE NOT IN A DOLLAR AND A DREAM (OR $2)

I was in georgia on the weekend. went off an exit on I-95 and there were these 2 shady looking gas stations next to each other. went to both and they both had walls full of winners. Tons of $500s, many $1K's several $5K and $10K. In fact some truck driver hit a $10K on Extreme Green there last week. Biggest winner they had was a $250K on a $5 ticket and $1 Mil on a $10 ticket. Very cool to see those. The place was nasty though, feces on the bathroom floor and all.... Anyway grabbed a book of $3 Mil taxes paid and $7 Mil Jackpot. Got back $420 and $210. Profit = $30. Highest wins were 2x $100 on taxes paid and $70 on $7 Mil jackpot. | | |

It has only 2 jackpots and 1 was already won out of the gate. If u are ever in columbus I would buy tickets there, there seems to be an excessive amount of winners from that city | | |

Congrats RCB! In regards to the Cubs tickets, you can win season tickets, I think its 1 in 1.6 million, while the St. Louis Cardinals season pass odds are only 1 in 800,000, something stinks there huh?
There is also a second chance drawing for losing Cubs, White Sox or Cardinals tickets. You can enter them in online for your chance at a trip for two games to this year's World Series. To be honest, with my team the Cubs not making the World Series, I'd rather win money you know? ILLotteryMan Signing Out

If u are ever in columbus I would buy tickets there, there seems to be an excessive amount of winners from that city The clerk said it was by far the worst $20 game but I only got it because he said they have not sold any big winners on it where as the other $20 games they all sold $500 or $1K in the last week. I wanted to get Super Millions because they had an insane amount of $500s hanging but they were sold out of new rolls. | | |

Hit 2 Hundo on a Monopoly--got the GO symbol, hadn't seen that in a long time!!! BUT GET THIS: I stop at a gas station that I've been to several times before, the girls are hot MILFs and they're usually nice.... I was going to get a BDB, it was on #27, but I see that the cashier has like 4 or 5 BDB tickets off to the side. I asked if that was a different roll, etc... and she said that they were already bought....and I asked by who. And she said that SHE was buying them!!! So I told her that I didn't want the #27 anymore..... I go outside and she comes running out laughing, waving a ticket in the air and yelling "Senor, Quinientos, Quinientos" ($500) ..... so she shows me the ticket and she had just hit $500!!!! She started laughing at me, and she actually got upset when I pointed out to her that she won the $500 on ticket number 31, one of the tickets she already had off to the side. Did she actually think that I would fall for that? She wanted me to think that the $500 winner came from the ticket I said I didn't want. The more I think about it, I don't know what her deal is. She's usually cool. Either way I get the last laugh, because she didn't know that I pay attention to the ticket numbers. | | |

Has anyone used a scratch off winner for delivery tip? I can't drive for a few weeks and craving Dominos. I know I can use my bank card and add tip, but I have a $10 winner that I could tip the person with. I know its a 50% tip, but just curious if that would be wrong.lol | | |

My cousin called me late last night shouting.... he hit $10K on BDB  He was playing Jubilee and ran across 3 straight losers and then hit $100 on the 4th ticket. He said he was going to buy a GRT ticket but at the last second he clicked on the BDB slot and won his biggest scratch prize to date (he hit $5K before on FMC) Sent me a picture on his phone it was a single $$ match on # 012, but he said after taxes he will be only slighty ahead as he has been losing his a$$ off this year like the rest of us. bought 2 rolls of BDB and got half back etc.... Anyway it got me excited and i went chasing tickets again hit a $100 but down about $160 on the day... I cant hit anything lol | | |

I am always happy to hear the big spenders win the decent prizes. $10K after taxes is decent money, however when you spend like some of us, it really only gets you to even or slightly ahead(momentarily).lol | | |
