Just snagged two QP Powerball "mistake tickets" from my regular store a few minutes ago.

I usually manage to find these little gems 2-3 times per month, and I've had pretty good luck with them.

Anybody else still finding these hidden treasures and having any luck with them. What?

    I have been offered "mistake" tickets probably 4 or 5 times. One I believe was $5.00 ticket which I refused (over my quota) and the others were less which I accepted. I don't recall ever winning anything with these tickets but then I seldom win with my own tickets. Unhappy

    I rarely play which is the main reason why I haven't been offered more of these tickets.

      This mistake ticket wasn't actually offered to me, I just happened to see it stuck into the side of their keyboard, and asked why it was there.

      Sometimes it helps to be proactive.

                    the cashiers here can  just cancel a ticket and  redo it corectly. i take errors  most times unless its  expensive. and have not won a thing on the yet.

                      Unfortunately here in the   Patriot   where Powerball tickets are sold, you cannot cancel without paying.

                      This is the reason most of my mistakes are Powerball tickets, from deadbeat customers who didn't bring enough money.

                          I wish they were because I'd afford a long vacay. I played them for a week and won nothing on them. New week with new combinations

                          Alright, my turn.

                            I played a few more QP's Friday, and scored my second 3 of 5 in a week ($10).

                            Good luck, hope you hit for $100K!!!  Banana

                              Last time I came across a mistake ticket, it was the cashier printing my tickets. He added powerplay, which I did not want, so he printed another without powerplay. But when I said I'd buy the mistake ticket, he said no, he was keeping it.   O_O
