I was going to get my lawn guys tickets for Christmas but realized it would be a pay cut for them.

Kind of hoping nobody hits it tonight

We are going to GA for Christmas and will def be buying tickets over there.

We feel our chances may slightly be better buying in GA than in MS

Good luck !

That is the smart play. You have doubled your odds of winning. Also, it is impossible to spend enough to make a meaningful improvement in your odds beyond what you have already done.

We had a lady in another department that was collecting money for group purchases for tickets. She kept a book with all names and all the figures.
She got a visit from one of the VP’s who asked if she was collecting lottery money and without waiting for him to finish, she asked Do I need to stop? He laughed and said, Heck no. I’m here to give you my money. If this thing hits big, you all aren’t leaving me here by myself!

Always laugh when people buy 100's of dollars worth of tickets...

I figured 1-300 million chance to win is pretty shitty odds and all it takes is one ticket...

A guy in Metairie won it a few years back with 1 ticket.

Just think. That would ALMOST get us out from under the debt we have to shitty ex coaches. We are like a Plant Baw with three ex wives at this point.

Your biggest gain in odds is going from zero tickets, to 1 ticket. You can't reasonably improve your odds past that.

We went to Lagrange this weekend and picked up a powerball ticket. Turns out we won $100.

True of course, with odds that high, buying 1 or 100, doesn't change that much..

I find the best thing to do in go in with people and pool your tickets.

Exactly..

Odd are the same no matter where you buy them...

Only reason it seems like most wins come from certain areas is because more tickets are sold there.
