I use to pick at least 5 tickets of the same stratch off but what works better for me, if I pick 1 of each stratch off now...GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF US AND CONGRATULATIONS TO THE BLUFFTON SC WINNER...

Bluffton, huh? I've been there. It's a beautiful little town. The other thing about it is it's right next door to Hilton Head SC. Megabucks there. But I'd live in Bluffton long before I'd ever buy in Hilton Head. Don't get me wrong, Hilton Head Island is absolutely gorgeous. But it doesn't come close to having the charm Bluffton has. G5

Yeah, it's not either of us. I think if I did win I'd have to say something because it would make for a really good news story.

I think at the end of the day we all do something that we think will land us the big one.

I have read here about those that go to five different gas stations and buy a ticket in each.

As humans we are wired to give meaning to everything just to make sense of it all.

Am glad they won regardless of the how.

I wish you luck too with your strategy.

I wish myself luck as well - hope I meet more older customers in the store

My method for buying scratchers is I don't just buy one or two I buy 10 in one shot. I always get a couple of winners that way, even though I don't always get all my money back.

The only way to know for sure if a method is that effective is to track it in a spreadsheet. I do that with some methods I've been using to pick numbers on draw games and find some do work a little better than others.

That method of buying the one that sticks farthest out is clever but here in some stores, that i... [ More ]

I'm glad he was able to get rid of his debts, that would be very nice.

I wish him all the best.

I get whatever ticket is sticking out the furthest, he told the South Carolina Lottery.

I wonder how much money and how many years the winner has been buying whatever ticket is sticking out the furthest,

It's so easy to confuse luck with how we do things

It's a feel good story though.

When I go to the store to buy my ticket, if there is an older customer I left them go before me out of respect.

Should I win the jackpot in such a scenario, I will make sure to share that str... [ More ]
