I saw a woman playing a $10 dollar scratcher one night and thought she lost and left the ticket by the coffee burners, she didnt scratch the bottom where the letters show and come to find out she mis-read a number and it was a $100 winner, by the time I got to her in the parking lot she peeled out so I gave the ticket to the clerk and told her, the clerk told me to just take the cash and I refused. Im sure the clerk ended up taking it...

Always scratch the bottom of your ticket, your ey... [ More ]

Although there's nothing wrong with trying to help people you really do have to be careful.

Too many times I've been approached by people needing money for gas. The story is ALWAYS the same. They say they're from out of town and out of gas.

Another story I've heard SEVERAL times is that their car was towed and they just need another 20 dollars to get it out of impound.

Then there's people begging for money to catch the train or bus yet they're nowhere near the train station or bus stop.... [ More ]

Just curious if anyone else noticed the link at the bottom of this e-mail trying to sell something? When I read this story I couldn't help but wonder if it was made up

Thanks rdgrnr

I like helping people and friends. Now I have given $20 to a couple of people I didn't know coz they said they needed gas for their car. They told me where their car was and walked away in a different direction. I won't do that again. Now I had to help my sister get out of debt coz she was in debt to 3 payday loan companies and she was borrowing from one payday loan company to pay off the others.

I have a scratcher here with the number 004. The first one I bought was 005 and... [ More ]

Nice to hear, sad thing is she will walk out of the lottery feeling alittle more of a loser then a winner once the taxes take part but still a almost midsize good prize, hopefully she will know she will never hit a prize like that again and quit and pay off her debts some mortgage and invest it instead of putting say $5 or even $10,000 back into the lottery.

This was in my e-mail thismorning

Talk about karma! Renee Green, a receptionist billing clerk at a software company in Bellevue, won $50,000 playing Scratch this morning, one week after she donated her entire tax refund, $700, to the Haiti fund.

I was on my way to work and I stopped at 7-Eleven and picked up a milk, a donut and two scratch tickets, she Renee. I went to work and scratched it and discovered I'd won $50,000. I was dumbfounded!

Renee already knows what she is going to do... [ More ]
