I could have used something like this when I was in Portland in a few weeks ago. I usually try to buy tickets when I'm in another state, but wasn't able to find a place this time.

Personally speaking don't need an app to locate a lottery dealer cause retail lottery dealers are ubiquitous in NJ.

After I saw that posted earlier, I did a quick search and found quite a few liquor store finder apps. Some are better than others, according to the reviews. There are also websites that provide the same service; I used this one and it showed every pkg. store in my relatively small town with only one mistake, including a bar.

One thing I agree with you. Great idea and most liquor stores have terminals.

Fantastic! Very glad to hear you like it. Please be sure to post a review on the app store!

On the Apple App Store you write a review by pressing the Review tab (the center of the three tabs), and then press Write a Review .

On the Google Play Store you write a review by scrolling down until you see the stars, then press then number of stars to rate the app, and that opens the review panel.

Thanks

Todd, I need your to build an app for me. Similar to this lottery place. Instead of lottery I want it to be liquor stores. How easy would it be for you to do this with the technology you already have built over the last 8 years. Inbox me pls

I noticed it won't let you save (yellow star)the destination which is strange. Doesn't matter. Usually save the addresses in my gps anyways.

As soon as I saw this app, I added it to my phone and tablet. I reviewed it shortly after. Please remember to review this wonderful app. Thank you Todd

I've never had a need to find a place to play lottery. I will look at app to see what else it can do.

Great app, Todd. I'll download it tonight. It will come in handy when I'm traveling. It will make it easier to locate a lottery retailer near the Interstate, with out going totally into a town searching.

I think we've all needed this at one time or another -- myself included.

Thanks for the feedback (noise-gate, got your private feedback too, thanks).

Please be sure to also post a review on the App Store/Play Store -- that helps more than anything. Thanks

l uploaded the app to my phone yesterday it performed perfectly. Great job Todd!

For a minute l thought Shia ' motivational speech had something to do with it, but the 8 years comment killed that thought.

I sure could have used this 2 days ago . I was in NYC By Herald Square walking around for 40 min looking for a place . Walked up 6 th ave ( Ave of Americas ) to Times Square . All the way over to Radio Music Hall . Down 5th ave to 39th back across to Broadway the up Broadway a while then back to 6th and back to where I started . What a nightmare '

This wiil be a big help !!! Thanks Todd

This is great. I'll be playing in VA/NC soon and I'm always looking for places close to highways that sell lotto. Tested the store navigation and it was dead on.

This project has been in the works for 8 years now. I've come close to launching it, only to realize it wasn't right yet. A real labor of love.

If you'd like to help out, please do download the free app I think you'll find it quite useful and then please post a review on the App Store/Play Store. Reviews are greatly appreciated

Hail to the Chief. Awesome app. Very useful indeed.

I like it, especially for places like New York were surprisingly few bodegas sell tickets and visitors can easily overlook hole-in-the-wall type joints. (Why don't cvs, Duane reade and walgreens sell tickets?)

Also the airport part is interesting.

However searching Heathrow Airport London didn't really turn up any results, and you can play in any WHSmith shop, on a playslip landside, directly over the till airside.
