He bought a pack of Marlboro Lights and some lotto tickets, he had exact change ready for like 19 bucks.


That's better than being behind a dumb arse that walks up to the counter,and hasn't even bothered figuring how much money he is gonna need,and probably hasn't even pulled out his wallet yet.Then finds out that he doesn't have enough cash and has just wasted 4 more minutes of my time... I like people who have exact change ready.

how do the numbers work?
do slots 1-5 pull from 99 balls or does each slot get its own 99? Does the 6th(poewerball) get its on set of 1-99 also?


basically what im asking is, if I picked the my own numbers and used something like birthdays in my family I would have something like

12 15 12 18 1 16

is having 12 twice in the first 5 even possible?

Pretty sure it pays about the same as always..not much..

I guess you don't mind waiting in line behind people like that? I don't have the patience for it,and I try to be more considerate of the people in line behind me. For cash purchases,like lottery tickets,etc.. I try to have the money ready,and as close to exact change as possible,if it's gonna be a card purchase, I have my card out, ready to do my thing,so I can get out of other people's way. It's not hard to do the math walking to the counter,is it?

In powerball, you can choose 5 numbers from 1-69 no repeating numbbers, then choose the powerball 1-25,but, if you play another string of numbers, you can use some of the same ones if you want.

Mega Millions works the same,except 1-75 on the first numbers and 1-17 on the mega ball.

okay so first five from a pool of 1-69 then powerball of 1-25.

I got this in the bag, any ideas on what my first post after winning should be? Dump pron then lift then ban on myself after I buy it from chicken?

I cashed in some scratchers and found some change in my mama's couch.

I'm in with 60 tickets.

One of them HAS to be the winner.

Know hat is even more that pisses me off? Assholes that own a small biz that drives up in the drive thru at a bank and ties up everything for 10 minutes. Go inside a-hole.

Bought two tickets today. First time in over 5 years.

I'd probably give them a few weeks notice and try to tie up some loose ends

I'd let the ends tie themselves. Come back in a year to pick up anything I truly cherished with a suntan and all the cubans. Cigars and bitches.
