Buy scratcher at one store, redeem at another?Reply
From what I have been told here in FL, retailers do not get a percentage of winnings off of scratch-offs...They just get Bragging rights when they sell a big ticket. They do however get a check when someone wins the FL Lottery, Powerball, or Mega Money. To answer your question, when I have a winner of $100 or more, I usually take it to a different grocery store because there has been too many times where a clerk may expect a tip for selling you a winning ticket.

Have you or anyone you known tipped clerks that have helped you select a winning instant ticket?Reply
No I do not tip clerks. I spend my hard earned money. Even if the clerk did tell me which roll one had a bunch of losers, I wouldnt tell them if I won. If you tell the clerk that you won (for example) $500 then they might expect a piece of the pie. Its like letting the clerk gamble with your money, if you are giving some of it back to them.

Tip for the clerk that sold the ticket
I was in the store that sold the Wilson's their winning powerball ticket this morning. It seems that the clerk that sold the ticket was complaining that the Wilson's didn't give a tip or even a thank you to the clerk. Most of the clerks agreed that a million dollar tip would have been the right thing to do. Do you think the winner is obligated to give a tip?

What's the rule / etiquette?Reply
Sounds reasonable, if the clerk is rude, they can forget a tip and my business.
