Now if she found some lingerie or something that belongs to another woman that would teach her from snooping...lol.

It's not a big deal until someone wins a million dollars. Then I'm interested in the backstory. :) The article just left it out.

I had to read this twice. I love giving lottery tickets as gifts, sans scratchers, always MM or PB depending on the amount and day of draw.

Don't fellow LP members give lottery tickets as gifts? What's the big deal?

Bank gave me a pile of Christmas money envelopes. We're having Christmas dinner here, so in each one goes either a Powerball or Megamillions ticket depending on which one is highest. Guests love it and you can't go wrong. If one were to win I'd be OK with that.... [ More ]

But why did someone buy and give him a scratch off ticket? I want to know. :)

Maybe he was into sharing! There is a man that plays pick3/4 at the store I buy may tickets (if hes feeling good about numbers) he sometimes buys a extra ticket to share with me,cashier and others that plays at that store(if we are there at the same time).

Yes, this story left a lot more questions than it answered.

Wait, what?! Is this story saying someone bought a ticket, scratched it off, thought it was a loser and then gave it to his friend? Then the friend and his wife cashed it? Who bought the ticket?

I know the holder of the ticket is the winner so no controversy there but I want to know more about who bought the ticket.

EDIT: OH! Now I see. He was given the ticket but he scratched it off himself. But why did someone buy and give him a scratch off ticket? I want to know.

Congrats to her , very brave diving into hubby's backpack.

My Hubby's backpack is always full of surprises, dirty socks, half eaten granola bar, dead spiders, mystery fungus, dirt, empty water bottles.
