Today I bought a lottery ticket and I'm super excited about it. I don't need to win the jackpot to be happy either. I think it would be awesome to win anything. Have you ever bought a lottery ticket or do you play the lottery? Have you ever won anything? I have won a couple times but it was only a couple dollars each time, but that's something!

We have mainly two lotteries here : Euro millions and the French Loto. For both, the chances to NOT win anything are about 93%. This info is enough for me to never play. My father was more optimistic and was buying a ticket every week. He was happy when he was winning 10 or 20 Euros. I wish you good luck with your lottery ticket.

I play the MegaMillions and PowerBall occasionally. My dream is to win it and quit my job.

We play the lottery when the jackpot gets really big. We should stick to the smaller jackpots. Probably have a better chance of winning more than a dollar or two.

I always make sure to buy them when the lotteries are trending and are high. It's rather exciting to be playing when a bunch of other people are playing because someone has to win eventually.

I dont go out to buy tickets because Alabama does not have the lottery, I would have to drive 30 to 45 minutes for tickets but when I am in one of the lottery states I will buy one on occasion, only won a few dollars.

It's amazing to me that there are still states that don't have it.

I don't know the lottery that you are talking about, but I play in some lotteries in my country. The most I ever won was 10 €. Moreover, it is very rare to get something. 1 € or 2 €. But yes... it always makes me happy :D

Just winning a little bit is exciting. The lottery I'm talking about is the one that my state has. It only costs $1 to play.

I very seldom buy lottery tickets but I have in the past won $1200 and a few $50 wins but I don't play that often and it is really not something I want to do a lot of.

I buy a lottery ticket time by time, I never won a single dime.

That's too bad. Hopefully one day you'll win something.

I did it a few times years ago and had a couple of small wins, but haven't bought any tickets lately.

Good luck. I did buy a couple of tickets last year and won a entry to the local Cash Explosion lotto show a year ago at this time when I entered my ticket. But I never got the call to go to the show last summer.

I have played every now and again but have only ever won when I've purchased scratch-off tickets. I used to play those every day when I was 19 and in college. Each morning, I'd go to the same shop and every day, the same cashier said that I couldn't play because I wasn't 18. So, years later, when I returned to the area and happened to see her working in a different location of that convenience store chain, I grabbed a newspaper, walked up to the counter, took out my ID, placed it on top of the newspaper, and when the cashier asked me why I had done that, said that I just wasn't sure if 24-year-olds were allowed to read the newspaper. That's when she remembered who I was and apologized for harassing me back then.

I don't play the lottery, but I do play an occasional scratch card. I won 10 bucks on my first ever scratch card, so they're sort of my thing.
