For the 1st time in my entire life, i played the lottery.

I bought 2 power ball tickets for Wed and 2 mega million tickets for Tues.

I did NOT get ONE number on any. lol.

I should have done what I said people should do and play my own states lower amount lottery. Days ago someone won 1 million in another city here in PA. That has happened before here when everyone is playing the big ones 2 people won a million and hundreds of thousands from our states lottery. 1 in our town and 1 outside of town, on the smaller ones. lol..

I wont play again, its a waste (just as I always said).

I have never won anything in my entire life "except" every year DH and I win something on record store day at the record store. lol.

Lastly I saw one person won in MA. I would panic if I won all that money (seriously I would give some to my family, buy a new house and donate the rest!).

Hi @JaneMarple 😊

I bought a few for the first time.  Nada.  DD got the power number, I think something comes with that but I could be wrong.  Anyone know?

So no I'm not from Watertown so I am not the winner, more a weiner for this one!!! LOL

Powerball begins again at a mere $40M. I'll continue to play because well, yeah I can still use $40M!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PINKdogWOOD]

@Noel7  YES he's a WINNER  WINNER!!!!!  It's either $1 or $2 but he can certainly reinvest in the next lowly $40M powerball.

We hit the powerball number #4.

Oh keep my feet from dancing.  LOL

I'll be curious to know if the big winner picked the winning numbers or did Quickpick/computer pick.

I don't live in a lottery state but I have purchased tickets at other states.

Each state has many other lotteries and the payoffs are not as big -- $50,000, say-- but the odds are so much better.

I'd be smiling all the way to the bank with a paltry $50,000!!
