    I won $150.00 one time, and then $90.00, $75.00, $50.00, and $20.00 every now and then. I usually play a couple $2.00 scratch tickets every pay day.
    When, I lived in FL in '95, I won $21,000. in their Fantasy5, after taxes less than $15,000.
    Yes. $5000.00 on a scratch ticket.

    Won 29K in the lottery many years ago. Bought a new Vette. Wife was not happy.

    Fantastic!!!
    Yes…$10,000,000.00. Scared me so bad I couldn’t turn the ticket in. To this day I don’t buy lottery tickets. I love my life just the way it is and that kind of money would completely disrupt everything in my life. I found it impossible to accept. I love to live this life by my own choosing….well that’s my justifications and I’m sure others would have gone for the money…my happiness is not there.

    O.k., sure, you could have given it away to feed the hungry. snicker.
    IamPamela313

    are you still holding the winning ticket? If so, I will turn the ticket in...I will be a multimillionaire for you. :-)

    I would like to say yes to you, but I don’t remember what I did with it. If you would like to come here and look for it, I’ll let you search to your hearts complete satisfaction.

    Can we trust you?
    robertgrist

    Trust is a two-way street, I’m easy to find, Facebook etc. I’m the real deal the story true and I doubt the ticket can or will be found. Wassup? The ticket was purchased in Eureka, California over ten years ago.
    IamPamela313

    Bah! Humbug...
    IamPamela313

    you know the story... lol!
    I won $1.000 in a Church Raffle, I had to give 200 to the church, I took the 800 left and bought a motorcycle that I promptly wrecked two days later.. That was many years ago..
    I think the most I ever won was on a scratch off lottery ticket, probably $20.00 not much I know but better than nothing.

    I've been to Vegas and Shreveport. LA and I am almost always the guy who wins a little or breaks even. Just my luck, breaking even is o.k. with me because I have fun spending what I win.

    I buy the $10 and $20 tickets. Better odds of winning.
    leeroy

    Ouch, I will have to consider that once I get to working full time again. Good to know, thanks and congrats on your ticket. That's the only type of ticket I wouldn't mind getting...

    I've won many $500.00 - $1000.00 payouts on them. That's what keeps me buying them. $5000.00 is my best one total amount win though.
    leeroy

    Cool, I just stopped buying them in bulk, I just buy one every now and then.

    That's pretty much what I do. One or two at a time. I buy only when the mood strikes me or when I'm "nudged" to do so. I win more than loss when I listen to the nudge.
    Nope I have never won a thing ..but I dont need to ...I am hanging with my kids, we have a camp fire going some marshmellows and fudge in the middle chips ahoys.... Money cant buy that kind of happiness.

    To true, but it could surely help.
    Contentment is all we need and happiness, full belly, no stress and peace of mind.

    I would not give the money back it I did win it.... :)
    I won a Toro zero turn mower on a radio station contest a few years ago. I was renting out my home at the time so sold it to a co-worker. Wish I had it now.
    Won a HUGH amount of cash back in 1994, it helped me to put a big down payment on my home I built. I played the pick three in the Va. lottery. Unfortunately the number was 666, but it's not found on my head LOL.
    Only in small lots.
    Yes...total amount...
    I won a little boat when I was about 12 years old, from the local hardware store. My Dad planned to use it for fishing, put it up in the garage out of the way and never used it. It hung there four the better part of 30 years before he gave it to somebody.

    I have won $10, $20 on the scratch tickets over the years, $33 on a radio contest where you send in receipts and they pulled them out of a hat and read the total, you had to call in within a certain amount of time.

    I'm not a very lucky person as far as money is concerned.
    Maz

    Me neither!
    I can't win an argument let alone a prize!
    IamPamela313

    neither can I Maz only in retrospect. So funny.
    i won 2001.00 on a video poker machchine in laughlin,nev in 2008....it is all gone now.
