Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
And once again ... cashed in the second 100x $100 winner at Publix today and got one more 100x ticket from the counter and one 100x ticket from the machine. One was not a winner and the other one was a $250 winner. I don't know if it was the counter ticket or the machine ticket that was the $250 winner. Wish I could say there is a system to this but it is just luck, right place at the right time:

Well Shoot..I dropped my scratcher ticketReply
A few weeks ago I went to a lotto vending machine inside a busy gas station on the boarder it was a Saturday so the store was packed with us folks from utah playing. Someone had left a $10 scratcher inside the machine, I scratched it and it was a loser.. your ticket was probably a loser . Once you lost the ticket it was no longer yours and the person in possession of the ticket is the rightful owner as they did not obtain it illegally (stealing from you)

Woman sues casino that offered her steak dinner instead of $43 million jackpotReply
Anyone who played slot machines or any lottery game knows you can't win $43 million betting a penny. The machine in the selfie says the machine is printing cash ticket for $43 million and please remove ticket . Had she simply removed the $43 million ticket and if the selfie actually showed the winning combination, she would have a much better case.

California gas station manager allegedly kept winning lottery scratchersReply
At least the instant ticket seller had to put some effort into it. Was a time in Pennsylvania, and presumably in other states that used similar systems, the ticket serial number was plainly visible - no scratching needed / no security codes. All the ticket seller had to do was enter that number, and the terminal would tell them if it was a winner. It became a widespread and publicized problem. Eventually, most lotteries switched to tickets with additional, covered security codes (and later, the

Ca Lottery - shame on themReply
According to what he said at the press conference interview he didn't realize he had the jackpot winning ticket even after using a ticket scanner because all the machine said was, see clerk. I guess he didn't put 2 and 2 together and realize the reason the machine told him to see the clerk was the ticket was very important.

Lets get a better understanding of what actually wins! PowerballReply
$5 quick pick on the same ticket is the way to go.If you read the stories of most mega millions and powerball winners, they have won with a $5 quick pick. Whenever you buy $10, $20, $40 and $50 quick picks. the tickets are printed on $5 quick pick tickets. i know that some mega millions and powerball states print $10 on a single ticket.but you can always ask the clerk to push the $5 button on the machine twice to get two $5 tickets quick pick instead of a $10 on one ticket.By the way in new york

Verifying California Lottery WinnersReply
Driveabizness....here is what I think happens in California, do you agree? Self Check: these devices display something like: Congratulations, Winner See Retailer. They do not, if I recall correctly, give an amount, just that you have a winning ticket. I think this is what you meant about inquiring without validating. Retailer Check: the retailer runs the ticket through the standard lottery machine. There is, or should be, a window where the customer can see what the machine displays

I Cannot Believe This Happened- AGAIN!
I like to scratch tickets and do so on a regular basis getting my fair share of decent winners. I have yet to encounter that truly life-changing ticket. My biggest win so far has been 10K and I have had one 5K win and a bunch of 2K and 1K's as well so yes, obviously I play quite a bit! For the last three weeks I have been doing my weekly grocery shopping at the local Market Basket. After going through the checkout I wander over to the scratch ticket vending machine, slide in my $20 and purcha

Sheesh! What a stroker!
(I'm using stroker here to describe a very rude player) Mrs Coin gave me a couple of bucks today to get her a couple of scratchers from the machine at a grocery store. Ther's a woman in front of me. She stickes her money in the machine, gets a ticket, doesn't even atempt to move, and scratches the ticket right then and there, blocking anyone else from getting to the machine. She does this three times - then she gets a ticket and goes a few feet away to scratch it at the service coun
