Has anyone ever won money off of scratch lottery tickets?
More than a dollar or two...
yes about 7 years back i scratched a one dollar lottery ticket that was an anniversary edition and won ten thousand dollars. Never happened again though.
I have I used to played the bingo tickets and have won close to 30. When they had slingo tickets I won 50 on one. Then a friend and I paid half and half on one and ending up winning 24.
Yes, I've won a couple of hundred bucks several times (the most I think was something like $280). A few years back, I switched away from buying lottery tickets and started focusing on scratch-offs - mostly because the odds were a lot better. Moreover, the high-dollar scratch-offs ($10 and over) always seemed to have the best odds, usually something like a 1-in-3 chance of winning. Anyway, with my first purchase - a $20 scratch-off - I won $100. So now that's about all I play, but it's certainly not an everyday thing; it's more like once every two weeks, and I basically subsidize my lotto playing by going an extra week or two without getting a haircut. (Hey, the money has to come from somewhere...)
On two separate occasions I won $500 on $10 dollar lottery tickets. Outside of that, I have only one a few dollars here and there.
Every time I do one of those scratch offs (about every week) I always win no less than $20 !
congrats to you and everyone else, ha. I got a bunch of maryland scratch offs in christmas cards for 3 years straight. Grand total: $2 (or 66.666 cents a year!) Not that I spent money on them to begin with.

If you won the lottery, say 10 million dollars, what would you do with the money?I would help...my church, a lot. I would put money aside for my children's future, buy a house and pay of my car, debts and put some aside for myself and my spouse, then I would spread the wealth around all family...

If you won the lottery, would you tell anybody?I suspect that dozens of characters with sad stories would be popping out of the woodwork, expecting hand outs and loans. I wonder whether it might be a better idea to just keep quiet and try fly under the radar a bit...
