I have the list for the $30 100X The Cash, and $5 Monopoly games. There appears to be 428 retailers with the $5 Monopoly game in stock, and 1193 with the $30 100X The Cash.
Yesterday, I bought #28-29 (973,xxx book range) of the $30 100X Game at Kelly's Kwik Stop in Gainesville. Got $40/$60 here. I also bought $95 worth of other tickets ($20 Gold Rush, $20 Yellow L200k/YR for Life (618 range). I ended up getting in total, $60/$135 for the entire day. About 40 percent back. Better than nothing back, but these $20 and above tickets haven't been doing anything for me...
Hi Dracos, thanks for passing along the great status info for those games. Seems like on the Power 5s for so few existing books there's tons of winning tickets left (let alone the grand prizes remaining as well). Aside from the fact that there's no-doubt some missed wins it begs the question of how many partial books and such were destroyed/picked up from places like Publix when more recent $5 games came out.
That frustrating about the $20 tickets...seems like you won a better % than last time, but $ return leaves much to be desired...you're due for a big one soon I hope!

Yep.
Also, it seems every single district office has the $30 100X Game in stock. I do think it is possible at least one of those two $1M prizes are still out there.
When I found the $100k on Super Millions, there were less than 300 books left across the state. The $3M wasn't found, but there can be big winners still out there. The question is, who is willing to take the risk for a chance to win up to $20k realistically? There are still unclaimed $20k, and $10k prizes as well on that game. Personally, I'm not going to go to hard on it just yet. I'll wait a month or so.
There's a rumor that a new $30 game is coming out in Feb as well. The FL Lottery might decide to pick up the remaining 100X books then... lots of opportunity for "Funny business" to start happening soon to ensure those last two $1M prizes are not found.
How are there 2/10 unclaimed jackpots on the $5 Power 5s when it is also about 99% sold out? People "missed" a top prize on a $5 game? A bit difficult for me to believe.
So, for sure interesting Dracos that all of the offices have 100X books on hand, but vendors around my area say they cannot order the game. Does beg the question of perhaps like you say a new $30 game coming out soon and some "funny business" going on when it does.
Here's the results of my recent 100X book for anyone who wants the details (ticket # and $ amount):
0
40

40

30

12
30
19
30
21
50
24
30
26

28
100
So $460 total return is just slightly over 50% return...not great but could be worse I suppose. Ticket % win was 1 in 2.73 which is slightly unfavorable compared to the listed odds of 1 in 2.59...
Also I had never been in the liquor store at the Walmart nearby but figured that's where the tickets must be since that Walmart is listed as a vendor on the Lotto site. Sure enough they had games, including 14 remaining of a 100X book in the higher 900K range, so I let the above $ ride and picket it up. Also, the $20 Mop was book # 530K or so. I'll for sure let everyone know if anything decent comes from these latest 100X...

According to lottery website 37 1k prizes have been claimed off 100x since you posted odds on dec. 30th, so game must be still selling fast cause thats a lot of books.

couldn't find any 100X where I went hunting - so I stopped at Walmart on my way home to get some ice cream and while there I went nuts and picked up 10 $30 Gold Rushes and nailed this $1K ! This is the second $1K I got from this game .....

A 50% return is a bit disappointing, but at this point the supply is starting to dwindle on this game. Today I bought two $20 Monopoly, 000 and 029. Both losers. I'm not doing well on $20 tickets here in Gainesville.
Wishing everyone else the best of luck with the new tickets or on whatever they're playing! I hope no "funny business" happens with the Holiday tickets when the new tickets are released on Monday. Also, I agree...my experience has been when a game is on the "Ending games list" the district office doesn't want to redistribute or sell the books that they have on hand. I don't want to be a conspiracy theorist...but...meh...

Nice win! Maybe when you go to cash it in at the Lottery office, they will have some 100X tickets.

It's been so long since I've had any pictures worthy to post here. What photo-site do people use or has the uploading changed since then?
Went out to Wawa today for lunch. Stopped at that Citgo I was talking about earlier that had the $20 Monopoly rolls that were less than < 500K. The "lowest" roll he now has is 598K so he must have gotten a new batch. But the ticket I picked up #1 was a $200 winner (10 matces numbers with $20 under each).

Hi uwnups, that's a good observation about the recent 1K prizes being claimed. I compared it to the change in overall number of prizes remaining on that game and sure enough there's been a disproportionate amount of 1K prizes now gone. Total prizes since Dec 30th have gone down about 3% (230,869 in the Dec data to the current 223,855) while the 37 count drop in the 1K amount to about a 5% decrease during the same time period.
It's interesting though that no 5k or 10k claims have been made since the Dec data.
For what it's worth, here my latest calculated "estimated odds" on that game based on data currently posted on the Lotto site:

Sounds like a nice win there, zzplayfaster, and for sure hopefully you can show it. Regarding image hosting I've had good results using postimage.org

Hi Dracos, thanks for passing that info along!!...that sure changes things on the $20 Mop quite a bit for now in terms of best current game to play, odds-wise.
So everyone, giving the games a quick going over it looks like the last top prize on the $20 WFL should be coming along before too long as it appears to be a little under 90% sold. I guess too the ol' $20 LFL is still also looking alright at the $50K/Yr prize point. In fact I picked up a few of LFL today; 3 ticket pull from one place and 5 from another. Went 0/3 on the first, but got this on the 4th of the 5 ticket pull. Will post it again when I end up uncovering $...lol I just want to enjoy for a bit thinking it could be on the higher side of this game's Win All potential $...
