Yeah, it's not exactly pocket change here either. I was a little miffed because I was led to believe I could spend it however I wanted. And did I mention that I hate scrtchers? I'm starting to get over it today tho. lol

I'm off right now to cash in a few to buy my Idaho raffle ticket, and a megamillion for tonight's drawing.

Congratulations! (In my household $35 is a lot of money these days.) Hope you buy a winning ticket with one of those dollars.

I got the package yesterday and I got ...

wait for it ...

yeah you guessed it ...

They didn't send the voucher. How did I know they'd send 75 - $1 scratch offs instead. Grrr. Wish they hadn't told me it was a voucher cuz I was really disappointed and a little bit pizzed to find a packet of worthless scratch offs. Did I mention I hate scratch offs?

So now there are little black lottery filings all over the house, and I only won $35 offa 75 tickets. Biggest prize was fou... [ More ]

Perhaps you bought a $5k vacation package to get your free $75. in lottery tickets.....

I haven't received the prize package to check for myself for certain, but the TV station guy who called me said it's a voucher that I can use to buy $75 worth of anything the Idaho lottery sells. Glad it wasn't a scratch off pack like so many give away cuz I never win scratchers.

You have a strategy for spending it to my best advantage? I'm betting I have to spend it all at once, but I won't know for sure till UPS gets here which isn't usually till 5 pm or so.... [ More ]

A win is a win, who cares if it was begged, borrowed or stolen.

Thanks for all the well wishes!

I just got a UPS alert that I'll be receiving the prize package tomorrow. Very nice that they sent it right out. I'm crossing my fingers that I win more than $75 with the tickets I choose to buy with my voucher.

Cuz a TV station gave them to me, not the lottery. Hmmm my logic is confusing myself now.

... tickets from a local TV station. Does that count as winning the lottery? Cuz that's the best I've done in decades.
