I've had a couple of scratch tix given to me in a B-Day card payoff in the $2-3 range.

I don't play unless the CT Lotto or PowerBall get into the insane dolllar amounts. I'll p!ss away a few bucks on some quick picks but it's actually pretty cheap entertainment. I'll spend the days or hours until the drawing dreaming about all of the things I'll buy when I win it.

The lottery motto is "You can't win if you don't play." My motto is "I won't win if I do play."
