I would give it in person, but not on the net. Were being hacked from both sides of the pond. All these fake sites make me nervous.

Why would that be a turn off? If you win you have give that up plus your home address.

If its an online gambling site, I'm not sure if they would even want to take credit cards much less EBT.

I was just wondering if they would allow people to use their EBT cards to buy lottery on line, Gas stations, have ATM'S , Many have EBT Cash, so thats how they buy lottery, others will make a food purchase, then the clerk will do a cash refund, ta da, How to turn your childrens food money into lottery tickets, it's magic

I don't think you'll have to worry about that.

This'll be for Michigan residents only.

We had MM online for a while, but you have to give your ss # and thats a big turnoff. Did'nt hurt store sales.

The Michigan Lottery plans to begin selling online subscriptions for games such as Mega Millions and Powerball starting this spring.
