  My strategy this time is to buy a few tickets a day in different areas and different types of stores. Basically, I'm just doing my normal driving, but hitting a bunch of places as I go. Grocery store, gas station, drug store. I'm just buying one ticket at each place, at different times of day. 

  They will mostly be quick picks, but I'll probably do a couple that I pick out.

  I figure I'll spend around $26.

  What about you?

  Good Luck.

  I'm sticking to the 1 ticket theory. 

  Maybe Powerplay?

  I bought a ticket for Wednesday and didn't have 1 number.

   

  May the odds be with you.

  I'm using my usual strategy. I simulated lottery drawings with numbered scraps of paper, bonus ball too. I've got 10 lines of numbers I like and I'm just going to play them. I play them for multiple draws since I'm on the road all the time. I'm glad I'll be able to buy my tickets at my favorite store in South Carolina.

  May the balls bounce in your favor!

  Just wondering, if you pick your own numbers, what difference does it make in which state you purchase them?

  He lives in S Carolina and if it's his favorite store they might be thrilled to be known as that AND to be known when
  
  this thing finally blows, to be the store that sold the/a winning ticket.

  South Carolina is one of the few states that allow a jackpot to be claimed anonymously.  And, with an annuity jackpot only slightly south of $1 billion, if ever there is a time this is an advantage, it is now! 

  

    I'm feeling a $312,000,000.00 jackpot win coming my way!
