Virginia Lottery launches its first $50 scratch-offReply
Decent ticket. The retailer earns $2.50 commission on each ticket sold. What's the minimum prize level? Florida's $50 ticket pays a minimum $100 win.

Indulge me a little, I promise I have a point... Did you redeem this free quick pick at the same retailer where you purchased the original ticket?

Major claim deadline approaching for Illinois lottery winner of $1.337 billion Mega Millions jackpotReply
In Texas we have to choose when buying the ticket if using a playslip. If a retailer prints a ticket from the computer (a QP) it automatically chooses the cash value prize unless the annuity is requested.

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
I spoke to someone at the lottery office that said they are changing the way we get paid, instead of cash at a retailer Like Publix, Winn Dixie etc., it will be a debit card. I am not happy about that at all. She also said a new 30.00 ticket is coming out this year and in February a new 50.00 ticket. She also mentioned the raffle is coming back. I don't want a 500.00 debit card, I want the cash so we will see how this all shakes out.

West Virginia Lottery begins allowing credit card purchasesReply
I know some stores here and IN will not take credit cards anymore, but Debit cards are welcome. From what one retailer in Indiana said too many folks were contesting the credit card charges. Yet here can still use my credit card without a PIN, just wants zipcode entered. About as lack of security as you can get.
