CA Lottery - California Love - CA Lottery ScratchersReply
I read the winner story again and when I read the part about the clerk screaming/hugging the winner, I just realize the retailer (not the clerk, who is just happy for them in the spur of the moment) will not get the $5000 (or 1/2 percent comission) for selling the ticket. Not too beneficial for the retailer to offer this game other than the high sales rate.

I may be wrong, I think a Lucky Retailer is considered to be a retailer that has sold at least 2 winning draw game or scratcher prize of $1 million or more. That is the reason it is seldomly updated, chances of that happening are so slim

That's the thing about new games. When they first come out, flood the market, and with typical high sales for new games, it's likely there are a couple top prizes in circulation at retailers. You never know when one can be found, it could be real quick. Later on many months later, sales are slower and there may only be 1 top prize in retailers at a given time.(the rest at the warehouse) But actually, right now is about the right time for 1 to be claimed, sales wise. The game itself is about 9

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
FYI, I just spoke with the Florida Lottery and was told that selling tickets in order is at the discretion of the retailer. There is no policy requiring a retailer to sell tickets in numerical order.

NY Scratch-off DiscussionReply
the most busiest lottery retailer that i go to has 3 lottery clerks and 2 machines and also 3 television sets for quick draw.....so that is basically a total of 5 rolls of each game the lottery has to offer....5 rolls of $30,$20,$10 scratchers etc...they sell at least a few thousand dollars worth a day.....and they told me they never hit a jackpot before....a few 2nd prizes yes but never a jackpot.........i dont think a retailer selling 'more' rolls has a better chance of having the jackpot....i

Do not get burned by this service station!Reply
I did it again, except I waited too late to edit my post. The save changes button was pressed past the 20 minute mark, but I began typing before the 20 minute limit was up. The 20 minutes in my opinion should begin once the edit button has been pressed, that should be taken into consideration. I wish that when you had to press the back button that it would at least allow you to go back to where you were, so you could cut and paste the information into another file, or re-post it as a new post in

It sounds to me like you are a very dirty retailer yourself, taking up for this guy, instead of telling me how to get his license revoked, For all I know, you might be this retailer.

N.Y. States Lottery Scratch off that still have money left over, too much to say!
There are still some scratch of games ranging from 5$ to 30$ that still have allot of money left over to the public. The only way to to win those leftover money is to play those game from top to bottom. But there is no way for us to play because those tickets are remove from the retailer either by returning the game or lottery taken them back. There might be some or a few that are still out there but where? I literally have searched over 1k stores by foot and have not found any of these stores t

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
I called the Tallahassee office to check to see how they reflect their top prizes while lottery offices are closed. We are all aware people may be holding on to claimers until lottery offices reopen to the public. I was advised the available prize count is updated after the scratch ticket is scanned at a lottery retailer. For example there are 145 $1M prizes for FRM. So today if someone walks in a store and purchases a $1M winning ticket, then proceeds to validate their FRM scratch ticket at

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
Hello all, im a long time follower of this forum but first time posting. I wanted to ask if any of you can confirm that the florida lottery knows when a jackpot or claim ticket is sold from a specific book the moment a retailer settles the book. The reason I ask this question is in response to Dracos saying the remaining 10M may become a ghost ticket. Last October 2016 an Orlando retailer told me their lottery rep told them they sold that 10mil ticket on fortune so i should recheck my tickets. O
