It will be very stupid for anyone to just use their unemployment check to buy a lottrey ticket that they know they are going to lose. Keep the snip money given to you by the goverment for better use. Everyone going around saying if don't buy a ticket you are not part of the winners so why buy the ticket and loose ? why don't you save your buck to be a winner ?

Well somebody's got to win it. Why not me?

Best reason in the world to play, even if you are scraping pennies from the bottom of your purse, wallet, or pocket.

Michigan hasn't won in a while, so it's time. And I got the ticket.

I like how they mentioned that store in Comstock Park and the winners it has had, gave it examples sans the big one of that convicted sex-offender who won a MM Jackpot there last year. They really swept him under the rug fast.... On the bright side, we haven't heard from him since either.

Tonight's huge Mega Millions jackpot helping already good sales

These tough times might have folks cutting back lots of things, but Keith Longhurst figures lottery tickets will never be one of them.
