Lottery tickets
« on: May 17, 2014, 04:10:41 am »
Do you save your non winning lottery tickets and instants tickets? There is a second chance drawing on the back of each one.

You have to sign up with michiganlottery.com and enter them in the second chance lottery. Read the instructions for explanations as to  what to do once you sign up.

I always save my lottery tickets for awhile, I check with the store scanner to make sure I did not win the other 8 ways and then I log them into the seond chance games.

I don't play the lottery at all. I think it's much better odds to take that $2 I would spend on a ticket and start an online blog for a niche that might pay off.

I live in Mississippi, and it is one state that has no lottery.  However, I have played the lottery when I lived in Chicago and have won money from it. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :rainbow: :rose:

I dont spend money on lottery tickets, because I think it is a waste of money.

We have the 2nd chance thing too.  I enter the tickets in there and then throw them away.  But I have thousands of them so there is no way to keep them.  I have a friend who works in a gas station.  She and others save them.  I don't buy a ticket very often.  I struggle too hard to waste my money.

I don't struggle, but I am not going to blow money on odds like that.

only play the mega millions and the power ball.   No I don't save them.  I live in Ohio,  don't even know if they have a second chance drawing
