I buy my tickets at the same couple of places, usually on my way to work. Same 'regulars' in there all the time. Everyone has there own method ; one woman likes tickets that have a lot of red in them, one guy goes for any game based on 7's, some folks like the ones based on a deck of cards, and so forth. If the clerk doesn't mind you standing there for a few minutes it's as good a method as any.

In VA there are two ways to buy-from the counter and vending machines., so dowsing would be a pro... [ More ]

I am very open to new-age, and mystical methods of divination. I have had some success with it in the past. Perhaps they should create a space by the counter specifically for dowsers. Dowsers may stand here. I won the big 4 playing one of my long time numbers, but it was actually unplanned and on a whim, as well as only ONE ticket. I played based on a hunch that day, and that was the only time the number has ever came up in 30 some years, and still has not came up again; although close.

Been busy... and just read the many replies to my original posting about dowsing for a good hit on a scratch ticket. To help clear things up let me say that when I do a visual scan of the scratch tickets available at the shops where I stop at, I only focus on the next ticket up for sale...not the entire batch. This lets me look (dowse) quickly without giving any strange 'vibes' to those behind the counter or next to me. See? It is so simple to do, for me that is. I'm a little ahead of the game t...

In the spirit of timing is everything :

So it turned out that jusme was in the store when the someone decided to reach across the counter and play five finger discount. Somehow, the only person appearing on the store's surveillance camera is jusme.

When being questioned by the police, jusme starts explaining that he was dowsing for a winning scratcher ticket.

I guess that's an advantage I have. I'm already very weird. Plus I look harmless and non-threatening and the people at the supermarket see me everyday when I pickup some groceries or fill my water bottles (can't drink the water here.)

However, a clerk needs to attend to customers. So someone who takes a lot of time in front of a ticket counter or hanging around a store might not be welcome. I've worked in stores and a customer can't just say I want to stand here and dowse. You've got... [ More ]

Some folks just appears suspicious, even under the most innocent of circumstances!

I don't think it's so much poing fun at dowsing as the method described. Educating the store owner or not, someone doing this is going to show up on the surveillance cameras constantly and be consiered a suspicious character.

It seems to be a popular thing to do: Poke fun a things you don't understand!

Do some research on dowsing: You'll find that it's just as successful at selecting Winning Lottery Numbers/Tickets as any other Method you or anyone else might come up with.

Next time you may have to educate the store owner to the ways of dowsing before attempting to select you Lottery Tickets with dowsing.

Not nay-saying the dowsing or such things, but since all you can see is the top ticket available in a counter or vending machine, I find this to be a bit of a reach, unless you mean the type of ticket and not a specific individual ticket.

Since tickets are often sold in convenience marts it would be no surprise if a store manager saw someone just hanging around the ticket display and figured they were up to no good, as Bazooka Joe mentioned.

I'm new to this forum and would like to pass on to those reading this a personal technique I have been using in selecting Winning scratch tickets. Would you believe I actually dowse for winning scratch tickets?

Yes. I've seen stranger posts on the mystical forum. Do whatever works for you. Although this has nothing to do with the lottery, a long time ago (far, far away on a different gallaxy. lol) I lived in a place called New Hampshire. It was a very cold night in the White Mountains af... [ More ]

Hey, I tried your Dowsing, The store owner threw me out, he thought i was on drugs or something. I told him i was just dowsing his tickets, he told me he was gonna dowsh me with buckshot if i didn't leave. Maybe i better practice at home a little bit.

Dowsing is as strictly defined the claimed ability to discover underground sources of water or metals by means of a "dowsing rod". Another term used is "divining". However, this terminology and its scope have been expanded and is now used with a far greater range of meanings. Dowsing now includes the claimed ability to discover almost anything, from water and minerals to missing children and archaeological sites. Each dowser will have his or her specialty. The device any dowser will use ranges f... [ More ]

Dowsing is a great idea. I had thought about using something

like that several months ago, did some reading on it. I just

never tried it.

Would you believe I actually dowse for winning scratch tickets? My approach allows me to use a personal reaction to what scratch tickets are available where I purchase them. I've done much better (dollar wise in net winnings) using a personal dowsing technique than just walking up, pointing to a ticket or two and purchasing them with the hope that a... [ More ]
