I'm not into the lottery but I do get suckered into buying a few tickets because of all the hype.
I'll probably (waste) $10 worth.

Yes, I think I'm going to pick up 2 tickets when I head out to get groceries.
I just realized I don't actually know how to buy them... I've never bought lotto tickets in the US before! Do I just go to the customer service desk?
-
@sunny: Yup, that's where you can buy them. At customer service. There might be a long line, if others are doing the same.
-
@bluestriped bee: Cool, thanks!
-
I like to buy a ticket when it's a big pot like this. And in case the lottery gods are listening, I'm not greedy; I'm willing to share the jackpot with fellow HBers!!just let me win a little; like say, a few million
-
I'm buying!
-
@yoursilverlining: Exactly! I'll probably donate a lot of it. I just want some of it... like 1 million. Shoot! I just want to match one or two numbers so like 10K.
-
I normally don't buy lottery tickets, but like you, when it's this large, I'll buy a couple tickets just to participate in some of the hype!
-
I bought a few this morning. I don't usually unless the jackpot gets super large.
I had a dream a while back that involved numbers. I don't usually remember my dreams but this one I remembered perfectly. I wrote the numbers down so I figured I'd play them just for fun.
-
DH was going to buy one today. We can dream, right?
-
I've never bought lotto tickets before, but I can't win if I don't play! I might stop at the gas station to get some on my way home
-
I usually get sucked into the hype when the jackpot is large, so I bought a few.
-
Definitely-- I bought 2 tickets for Wednesday's drawing, and when there were no winners, I knew I'd have to go it for Saturday since the jackpot grew!
-
Nope!! i dont buy lottery tickets
-
I'm going to buy a few probably! When it's this big, you have to play!
-
@bluestriped bee: @yoursilverlining: if I were ever to win I would definitely be distributing it out to our family- paying off their debts, buying them houses etc!! DH and I would travel, but I would still work because I like to
so I agree- a few million is plenty!
-
Yep, my coworkers and I pooled our money together for tickets today.
-
Ok, I bought some tickets! Good luck everyone! It would be so cool if someone from HB won something!
-
DH just left to buy tickets after using his statistics degree to logically deduce winning numbers hahahah!!! He is such a nerd
*crossing our fingers*
-
@Mrsbells: Yes! Someone else that doesn't buy! lol
-
Nope, we never do!
-
Yup, ugh about a $100 worth thrown out the window lol. U can't win if u don't play. =)
-
My DH just went out to buy some... Right under the 11pm est deadline! I hope he doesn't buy too many.
Eta: looks like he missed the window by a minute. Guess I won't be a bazillionaire tonight. -
We stopped at the gas station tonight on the way home. We always spend about $10 when it gets to be big like this. It's fun to dream.
-
@tequiero21: wow!! Go girl! DH only let me spend $20. Good luck to you
-
@BabyBoecksMom: haha it was Dh who bought them!
-
DH picked some up earlier. He'll definitely agree to a second baby if we win, lol!
-
DH bought a bunch. We don't need all 550 million- I'd be happy with 1 million!
-
Can anyone get to the website to check the numbers?
ETA: 10, 13, 14, 22, 52 and 11 for the powerball.
-
Boo! I matched two numbers but not enough to win anything.
-
@bluestriped bee: no winning here either
I was hopefully for SOMETHING!
-
I don't usually but I did before it got really big just for fun. I picked numbers for the megamillions and powerball for the first time (had bought the random ones before) and matched 3! Woohoo! So we bought more for this one but then we probably won't buy again for awhile!
-
Nah. I asked DH if we could and he said no. I know that his parents are though.
I was hopefully for SOMETHING!
