Georgia Jingle Jumbo Bucks-Again! 020-029Reply
It was really exciting, and I made some decisions which turned out to be pretty wise tonight. I turned in $32 worth of winning tickets this evening, but had decided to keep $20 of that to apply to a hard drive(s) that I have been considering buying. The clerk said that the Jingle Jumbo Bucks had been doing good, but also mentioned that they only have one big winner per pack usually. I asked him where the winners were mostly, in the middle, beginning or end. He said it was usually closer to eithe

How to win at the Georgia $20 instant game, Maximum GreenReply
It is almost like I have actually lost my mind, and have suffered from some brain disorder. I originally spent $260 on scratch-offs Christmas day, and lost $75 of that, meaning that I still had $185 worth of winners. It was not too terrible, but I made sure that it ended up much worse. By that point in time, I had bought 2 $20 losers from the same roll of tickets. I bought 007, and it lost. When I came back, it was on 011. You guessed it, it lost as well. Of the $75 that I lost, $60 was from

Have you or anyone you known tipped clerks that have helped you select a winning instant ticket?Reply
I kind of agree. I do usually like to keep my winnings to myself, but I still think clerks can be of help. One thing that occurred in the past has stuck with me for some time now; to this day I still wonder about it. Once upon a time, I was in a store trying to decide on which ticket that I was going to purchase. The clerk suggested Jingle Jumbo Bucks, and he said that it had been doing good recently. Being that it was the first ticket (029) in the roll, I was skeptical, but I knew it could b

A long story short, Yesterday at Murphy USA, I went to purchase a $20 GRT, as I scratched it off, An 60 something year old man bought the $10 Lucky $100K/Life Ticket and won his money back, Then I found a nice little suprise as I found a Stack of Coins symbol with $10 under it and 2 matches with $10 under it for $50, so the Guy bought the $2Mil Casino Action and Was ready to scratch it off, After he purchased it, I purchased the next one, Once I paid Debbie, The Hot Store Clerk, The guy said out

Lucky and unlucky Scratch-off ticket numbersReply
I stick to a handful of games, but occasionally I will buy other tickets. I think a good mixture is OK, but I would get really good at a game, and play it a fair amount if you do well at it. It will be easier to win a game in my opinion, if you play it consistently. If I had to choose, I would say $5 tickets give me the best return on my money, and that is what I mainly play, along with $10 tickets. I would say that I might spend 2/3 of my money on $5 games, and most of the remainder on $10 game

Do not get burned by this service station!Reply
Sorry, I did not read this post before I responded to your next post. I will respond to it now, part by part, because you bring up a lot of good points. I can understand how you might feel that the book was not even distributed fairly, but its not always true that a decent winner is at the front/back of the book. For example, I have won $1,000 several times now and every one of them was in the middle of the book range. I have won $500 probably 15-20 times and the majority of them were #'d 10-

Scratch off methods.Reply
Anyone feel free to tell me their strategy, not only on scratch offs, but online draw games as well. Here is what I have had the most success with right now. I will spend $10 at a time usually, and I will purchase 2 separate $5 tickets. There are several reasons for this. 1) If I buy 4 $5 tickets, and win $20, then I have just wasted my time. Sure I broke even, and that alone is grounds for celebration sometimes, especially after a hard losing streak, but I still made no money. 2)I buy a l

Hi James! No, I don't mind you asking at all. I play a lot of tickets but my plays are scattered throughout different stores. I usually go to 2 favorite/ nearby gas stations, 2 favorite/nearby grocery stores and depending on my travels for the day/every couple days...I'll try whatever is on the way to where I'm going. Usually when I go out, I have $100 to play where I choose to stop in - I LOVE the favorite gas station, that's a Top Star station, that's ALWAYS been good and I don't k

My Scratch off Adventure
My scratch off lottery ticket experiment.After a good month where I made a killing working from home I decided to buy a couple books of lottery tickets and put aside about a grand to blow. I live in Illinois which offers fair games in my eyes compared to other states. I decided to play the Miles of Millions game as they still had three top prizes available and about 40% of the game had been sold. (Yes I realize that people could be holding on to winners) Finding books to buy for the $10 game

I bought an entire book of $20 GA tickets - $3,000,000 Taxes PaidReply
You got that one right! I went to claim the $130 of my winnings tonight at a QuickTrip. I was going to get some more there, but my gut really strongly objected to the idea for some reason. I turned in $90 worth, meaning to turn in $100 worth (they will only pay out up to $100 cash, After that it is a money order, which I did not feel like dealing with). Against my better judgement, I asked if I could turn in the remaining $40 ticket for more scratch offs. The clerk said no, and went into this lo
