Lots of $25 and $40's on WCC, accidentally bought two Misfortunes out of machine at Publix, asked clerk if I could exchange for WCC, she said nope..once dispensed it's urs. One of them was a $500 winner, lol!!!
LOL see how that worked out. How did you accidenally buy them though? Pressing the button blindly lol. I bought a 20$ gold rush doubler tonight from a publix machine and won $50. Scratched the golden nugget doubler before the amount and figured I had won $20 with a $10 beneath but was 25$. Nothing fancy but at least I won my money back and $30 and starting off the month right. I'm debating if I will stick to publix this month for my tickets

RISKY - CONGRATS on the nice wins !!! It's nice to see someone hitting $25 WORLD CLASS and $10 M .............I havn't had any decent hits on them in weeks and weeks. Do you know the book number you got those two on ? NICE !!!
I played thru $1K this morning - random WORLD CLASS and $10M ....... nothing over $50 and I cashed out with $275 !!! That sux ! I shoudn't complain - April & May I couldn't do anything wrong.

I haven't won didly on $25 World Class. Last 4 trips during fuel stops over the past 2 1/2 weeks. 4 tickets, all losers. Ranges were 316K, 319K, 323K, and 338K which is the highest I've seen today meaning the game should be reaching nearly 50% distribution.
On the flip side, my mom bought 2 of the $2 1K for life tickets off of two different rolls and won $10 off of each.

Hmm the first 10M prize should be due to drop anytime then if 50% sold through?
Also, would the 2M Flamingo Multiplier ($10) be a good ticket to buy, with one TP remaining? Wonder how much is sold through and its general availability (haven't really been looking for it, so don't know if it's still easily obtainable).
Also, regarding the old $20 Gold Rush, I'd be reticent to trust that there really is one TP left unscanned... You certainly cannot trust the Remaining Prizes page, nor anything the Lottery tells us, and has there not been contradictory communications from the Lottery officials regarding the last prize as documented in the thread? Bottom line, I would not go after this ticket thinking that that last prize really hasn't been scanned... However, the 19 100k prizes remaining (according to a recent ILR someone posted correct?) I think still make it desirable, along with the small possibility of the last prize actually out in the wild...

I've been playing primarily cashfall and Margaritaville for the last eight months or so purely because of the expectation that the prize will come up soon. I haven't however bothered to get the list of winning book numbers for cashfall. I only asked for the most recent two because of the last time I requested book numbers for a game in them wanting to charge me 90 something dollars.
Does anybody have the list of books numbers for cashfall? I have a pretty good idea of places that would have older books, but asking the places for the book numbers is useless without the previous winning ones. I don't buy much other than the two dollar tickets lately so I won't be buying much but I am curious to see if the idea pans out.

Ok, I know this isn't scratcher related but I've been playing Lucky Money lately and been doing the EZ match for an extra buck. I first thought it meant it would just give me random numbers to match for the drawing but NO, it's a random selection of numbers to match the ones you picked for the drawing. What I'm getting at is how is it not rigged? I mean it can just pop out numbers that clearly don't match whatever you have and you pretty much just wasted an extra buck. I've done Lucky money with ez match like 5 times now and the numbers never hit any of the ez-match numbers and not even the lowest amount; 5 bucks.

My understanding was that any of the random selection of EZmatch numbers would need to match one of the winning numbers for that draw date, resulting in some sort of winning EZmatch amount/prize tied to that particular winning Lucky Money number.

Am I just wasting money on ez-match?
LOL. I feel the same way. I've been doing it with Lucky Money as well since it started and have only won $5. I wondered how the number system worked too since it's "random" but I just go with the flow. I mean since it's only a buck and ends in a few weeks (well the "double"payout promotion does) I would keep playing it. The only thing that worries/worried me when I play it is some person behind the counter seeing I wont a ez match for a good amount and tries to keep my ticket or something. Before I used to play quick picks with it before I started playing a set of numbers and I noticed a few times that the machine would "go down" or something at specific stores. Meaning they'd pick my ticket and the machine would make a noise and then "go down" and a few minutes later another ticket would come out and they'd hand it to me.
Not anymore though lol. I sit and watch them scan each slip I hand whoever now.

Looks like this is not the case, and your understanding is correct, Risky... yeah that's a little weird, I would have thought that they would have the EZmatch numbers match against the actual winning numbers, but nope, looks like they need to match the numbers you picked:
