Powerball lottery
« on: November 25, 2016, 08:21:19 am »
Are you playing the powerball lottery? As of yesterday, it was at $403,000,000.00. That is a lot of money that we all can use, even a small amount of it would help. The drawing is tomorrow.

I haven't played the Powerball lately.  I probably should buy a ticket, but every time I do buy one I don't win anything.  I have the worst luck.

     How much is a ticket? How many matching numbers to win that amount?

Yes, if you don't play, you will never know if you could have won the jackpot.

Too late now but the tickets are $2 and $3 if you do the power play.  You have to match ALL the numbers to win the total.  There are smaller prizes for matching 3 or 4 of the numbers and then if you match the power ball number.

I bought two last Wednesday... not one number matched :D
Forgot about it yesterday.   
Hopefully no one won, so I can still have some fun trying to win this coming Wednesday.
I only buy tickets when the jackpot is super huge like that... I know the odds of winning are crazy, but it is still fun.

We started playing as a group at work a few weeks ago. I always hope that it goes to a big group if it is won. I do play on my own as well but I play the smaller ones too

I would go and have my luck too.  But it very hard for me to win, so I would not buy them regularly.  Just buy them once awhile.
