Scratch and Wins

Hoooooooooooooooly shit....I am addicted.

Nothing is more satisfying than spending wayyyyyyyy too much money on Scratch tickets and getting at least one winner.

I need to go buy more with my winnings, going through withdrawls.

The most I ever won was $10 on a scratch and win. And then I spent it. I was sad.

I bought alot of scratches for a bit, but my luck ran out and I got tired of losing all the time :( Now I spend my money on better things, like alcohol.

Man I miss the days of working as cashier in a gas station.. I would get so bored and play scratch and wins, and keno all day... I would walk out of there making an extra $100, $150 sometimes $200 on top of my what I made working for the day.

Its true what they say: odds of winning is 1 in 4.

I find that's its good to switch up your scratch and wins and never stick to just one type. Set for life tix have the biggest payouts. And Never go for those holiday or gimmicky scratch and wins..i've never one anything on those.

I have a friend from high school that won the Vacation for Life. So I haven't stopped playing that one. I have one considerable amounts on Gold Rush before.

I never play the same ones, and I avoid playing the crossword ones. Too much work and if you don't win, it was a waste of time.

yeah the crosswords are pretty lame...people just like then 'cause theres more chances of winning per card... but its a huge waste of time. I just want to scratch the fucking thing-- now give me my money!

Oh, and I try not to buy from stores where there has been a huge winner.

But definate faves are, Vacation for Life, Set for Life, Gold Rush, and I will admit, I like the moosletoe, but just because it has a moose on it.

Oh and I didn't mention, my Aunt took home 6.75 Million on 649. Unfortunately our relationship is strained.
