What's the rule / etiquette?Reply
The store gets a percentage for every ticket sold. Plus a bonus for each winner. Anything less than 1k, no. Above that, maybe. But then again, the clerk doesn't tip me when he or she wins.

Would you tip the Store Clerk if you won big ?Reply
All the lottery clerks I deal with are pretty rude and they act like they are making an effort to wait on you...and they seem disgusted that I never buy anything else. Yet, every other type of retail clerk I deal with in a non-lottery capacity is much better. So the lottery clerk gets 0$ from me. I'd rather give any tip to the homeless. PS: And off the topic but I am predicting the Hungarian Cardinal becomes Pope.

I tip no matter what amount I win. Last time I scored $100, I gave the illustrious clerk a $75 tip; after all, how else can they survive on minimum wages.

Heads up on Texas All or Nothing Promotion playing $6 or more on Texas Lotto gameReply
When I go play Lotto Texas this weekend, I will ask the clerk if that's possible. Thanks for the tip HoLeeKau. You're right, most of the cashiers are not subject matter experts in running those machines. And who am I kidding, the software to run those things seems pretty complex. Probably take a day or two for most of us to learn.

Passive mugging
Have you ever or even someone you know let a winning ticket get out of your hands and into a dishonest clerks? I honestly can say I never have...and I Always always always check my own tickets first...online, with my phone app....even before my internet was up and running I would call the state lottery line and check my numbers....scratch-offs are harder you just got to know how to read it and be sure before you hand it over to a clerk....Here's a tip...if they say its a losing ticket tell them

Tip the ClerkReply
When the jackpot is pumped up I try to 'tip them beforehand' - yesterday I played a ticket and then played the same numbers for the clerk and gave her the ticket. Always nice to know someone else is rooting for the same numbers.

Does anyone tip?Reply
If the clerk gives me a hot tip on a number and it hits, then yes. I look at it this way. They don't contribute to the cost, so why do they deserve money? The clerks don't give me a portion of the money back from the cost when I lose.

Tipping
what is the most or no tip given to clerk because they punched in your numbers or good karma, gave a winning QP, etc... most I gave was $40 on a Pick4 number I hit for $5400. not even 1% but $40 for punching my numbers = good dinner.
