Stopped in at Publix today to pick up a few things, so picked up another ticket. Today's ticket was purchased almost exactly 24 hours after the ticket I purchased yesterday, and in that 24-hour period, only 2,076 tickets had been sold.
I've rethought my ticket buying strategy..... I decided to buy one raffle ticket per week in June. I'm gambling that there wont be a ticket buying frenzy during June. If there is a frenzy, no harm done. If there isn't one, I figured I'd be better off with more tickets in my hand than not.
I stopped in a RaceTrack today and bought ticket number 2984XX. BTW I was shocked when I ordered "one Florida Millionaire Raffle ticket" and the clerk responded with "You want MegaMillions?" She had never sold a millionaire raffle ticket since they opened that RaceTrack four months ago.
Besides I haven't spent any $$ on either lottery online games or scratch offs since 3/1/2026. (Well, yes I have. I spent 9 bucks in either March or April on 3 lines of PB with the PowerPlay added) I usually spend over $100 per month on Lotto, Fantasy5, and PB, but because I haven't spent anything other than that 9 bucks on PB, I decided to buy one raffle ticket per week in June.
In it to win it. G5
Play Smart! That's IF there is such a thing as playing smartly!!
