WTG Omiller..Good for you...I tried one of the valentines and won Nothing...and one of the 7's and won $10...so I hope these do well for everyone...What was the ticket number on this one....
Great Job again...
Good Luck everyone...
027. Well I do have bad news. I had good timing when I picked up the ticket, but bad timing when I cashed it. Watched a guy blow through the new $20's with loser after loser. He had a $20 here or there. Well he started on ticket 002 and played til 014. figured I would try 1, then a 2nd, then a 3rd. Well I got so far I couldn't stop. Played out the roll with nothing more than a $25 and 3- $20s. Guessing 000/001 had to be decent. Kicking myself that I put it all back in(minutes the 7 Vday tix I got to finish that roll). I keep looking at the positive though. It was "found" money and I didnt hit the ATM.. Yeah well the $20's are horrible. The Vday are horrible. Only 7's ticket for me from here on out.

Been there done that omiller..that is why I too am only playing every now and then...spent way too much money last year chasing a win...and never found it..
that little voice inside your head that says..keep playing.."it has to be the next one"...took me long enough to realize that it isn't the next one or the next...has to do with the right place at the right time..
I did hit quinto lastweek boxed for $850...so was happy about that..been playing a couple of numbers daily on quinto and 4 digit everynow and then...but the PA scratchers are still a joke in my opinion or at least
in my area..
You do feel much better about yourself when you don't take money out of the atm to play..i'm going to try and stick to, when i win..that is the money I will use..or some of it anyways... so you don't feel so crappy..
Proud that you didn't take money out to spend though...Good going again on your wins...

Thanks. Totally feel the same. If I can stay with no ATM or only a quick $20 to satisfy my $20 fridays, then I am happy. It's the $100 followed by another $100 then another $100 with nothing to show is when you feel dejected. If I didnt see that guy lose a ton, I would have gotten 1 and walked out the door.. If I would have chased to finish on a $250 I would have walked. Playing today on house money isnt bad. Kinda like the casino..Who knows, maybe the Vday ones will hit..
I should start playing a few dollars on # games. At least there is nothing to chase there and you can't keep losing.. Good idea, I think I might just do that here and there. I know DR65 and a few others have systems, but thats too much brain power. I would rather play faves or quick picks and be done.lol

Great looking tics. Those scented tickets give me a headache. How does the coffee one smell.
It smells bad, but to me doesn't seem nearly as strong as our GingerBread one this year and Peppermint one last night. I really have to put my nose to it to smell it, unlike those others.

Took my $60 Vday tix and planned to get 12 of the 7's. well the place wouldn't cash the $50 winner. Spend $10 on 7's there and then the $50 at Wawa. They didnt have 7's s I settled for 2-$20's and 2-VDays. One of the VDays again hit for $50 and that is it. Brings me back to the new $20's.. HORRIBLE. Flat out ATROCIOUS. I don't care that I hit $250 on my very first one. I have never seen so many losers on a $20 game. I feel like I am spending $20 on a $1 game..

couldn't resist after seeing all the 7 tix hits, so bought a few 5 here 10 there. Then decided to spend the 20 on the Pa millionaires, n $120 later ALL losers! Seriously I have not one once on that one!

Had a pretty good day today all though I hit the ATM a few times. Had a few $40 wins, several $20 and these two bad boys from the same store at the same time:
Was going to cash them in but I forgot my phone at home and I wanted to take a picture to show you guys. I am going to buy a few more when I go then quit until next Friday or so. I love the $2 game! By far my best hits although they are not huge wins they help!
