I don’t play that rip off, so no.

I hit either two or three and the powerball once and it won me $7. Which I used to buy more lotto tickets which won me nothing
Still play lotto Texas at least once a week. Ever since mega millions went to $2, I stopped. Can’t justify that

It’s been about 15 years now but I won $10,000 by matching four numbers and the Powerball. The jackpot was up to $528MM so I nearly crapped myself. Got $7,500 after taxes.

I hit the lottery jackpot today, kid got into a lottery public school we wanted and now I don’t have to spend thousands on private school.

I can honestly say I’ve never bought a lottery ticket in my life.

On the very first day f scratch off in La I bought 10 tickets. On the 7th ticket I won $5,000.

I would buy a lottery ticket if I didn’t waste all my money on hookers and blow.

I've only bought lottery tickets a few times. Recently I got (I think) four numbers on a Powerball ticket. Won about fifty bucks. You could say I'm swimming in cash.

Never played so never won (or lost) anything on the Lottery.
EWE called it a “sucker’s game”.
I defer to his genius & experience on describing games of chance.

I see some people buy them from the machines here in the grocery store and they won't even play them. They just scratch the barcode and see if they won, rinse, repeat. It doesn't make sense to me.
I like to get 1-2 after I go grocery shopping and sit down and scratch them. It's fun for me, and it's sorta like buying excitement for a very short amount of time. I don't expect to win anything, but that's likely why it's an every now and then thing. Although to some people, I'm sure that doesn't make sense.
To answer the question, though, my dad bought me about 10 scratch tickets for one of my birthdays as a teenager and I won $80.

I use to get bored and buy the crossword ones at lunch. Won 1500 but that's about it..

I typically buy a $5 scratch once a month.
Most I have ever won was $100. Most of the times if I win it's like $5, $10, or another ticket
Trurh be told it's a waste of money, a I am well aware of that. But hell it's $5 a month. There's plenty of shite we waste money on. So its no big deal the way i see it.

I won 75 once from a bingo scratch off card I was given at a company Christmas party. Pretty sure that’s the only one I’ve ever done

I won $108.00 through the Texas Lottery for getting three or four of the numbers right.
I had a roommate that used to split the cost of 20-30 scratch offs with a buddy, then come back to the apartment and split them evenly, drink and play what may have been like poker with them. They'd spend hundreds, and sometimes win hundreds. Guess it was cheaper than driving to Shreveport to lose your money.
They were Wendy's managers so they'd come in and play til 6 am when I'd wake up to get ready for work.

My aunt won $100k
After taxes she gave each of her 4 siblings 10k and kept the rest.
