OK....how many here bought a Powerball ticket today? I know, I KNOW, I couldn't HELP it, I got CAUGHT up in the PowerBall FEVER today. Stopped for gas and the LINE for TICKETS :eek:

thought, what the heck, I just threw away $30 to FILL my pickup, why not throw away another $5 on tickets........we'll see "LOL!" NOT!!!!! Hey, one can DREAM, RIGHT?

I don't play the Lottery...and NC didn't have one until recently when Gov. Easley signed it in. :roll:

I play when the jackpot is larger than the odds of winning-got my $10 worth of tickets already.

GREAT Strategy Steve 8-)

I like that!! I very seldom buy tickets but with a jackpot THIS big why NOT? I mean, 5 bucks for a chance at $340 million :eek:

I never play, either, but, hey - count me in! :lol:

I bought my three tickets, last night, all with Powerplay.
Heck, I'd be proud to win $1,000 - that would help buy GAS!!

I play every week - only because a bunch of moms I know have a pool; we each contribute $20 for 10 weeks of drawings; when those ten weeks are close to being over the person whose bright idea (ha ha) it was turns in our winning tickets and lets us know how much we each owe for another ten weeks, minus our winnings. This jackpot is ours - we are due for a win :lol:

ONE winner in Oregon :eek:

Can you IMAGINE?!?!?! I do have to say one thing, how on EARTH, WHAT on earth would you DO with $340 million??? I mean, after taxes etc, you'd still have OVER $150 million?!?!? Honestly, I think it would only bring MORE stress in ones life!

Well, I won $20 off of one ticket, so, that paid the $6 for three
tickets, with $14 to spare! LOL, so, I'm not complaining! :wink:
